Show in the Snow?!

Will it snow tomorrow for the show? We will see! We will also all be here! Will you? click for more photos...

And the Show Will Go On!

Despite the threat of wind rain and possibly snow, the Calaveras County Garden Club is here today in full force getting ready for their "March Melody", A Flower Show, that is on display this Saturday and Sunday along with the Northern California Daffodil Society Show & Competition.  Competition is always tough but full of fun, friendships and creativity to boot.  These gals are having way too much fun out there!

Nice Job Larry!

 Here are just a couple of buckets on their way to artistic & creative arrangements.

This beauty is on display in the Museum.



Here is Ironstone's Paul consulting with one of the competitors! 

Good luck Olivia!  Olivia has the her entry done, "Tapestry". First one ready for judging!  Go Girl!  Olivia is also one of Ironstone's favorite Volunteers, with us for ever!

Wow!  Look at these beautiful arrangements coming to life, can't wait to see the finished products in the morning!  Come by and see for yourself!
