SANTA ROSA HOME AND GARDEN SHOW

LAST WEEKEND I CAME TO LOOK AT THE EXHIBITORS AT THIS SHOW AT THE FAIRGROUNDS. IT WAS A COOL RAINY DAY. THERE WERE SOME ARTISTS, BOOTHS WITH LANDSCAPERS, MASTER GARDENERS, HOT TUBS, WINDOW CONTRACTORS AND VARIOUS PROFESSIONALS IN DENTISTRY, ROOFING, SUN LIGHTS, COUNTER TOP REPLACERS. WE PLAYED A GAME WITH BAGS OF BEANS AND TOSSED THEM INTO A HOLE. I WON A CAP AND GAVE IT AWAY. THERE WERE PEOPLE WHO SOLD SOME JEWELRY, A COUPLE WHO SOLD LAMMA HAIR PONCHOS, AND ALL KINDS OF CONTRACTORS FOR INSULATING YOUR HOUSE. I HAD A GOOD TIME WALKING THROUGH ALL THREE PAVILIONS. THE MOST INTERESTING EXHIBIT WAS HOW TO GET RID OF SUDDEN OAK DISEASE WITH SOME EDIBLE MUSHROOMS. THEY HAD THIS ON DISPLAY AS WELL AS ALL KINDS OF NATIVE PLANTS. THERE WAS AN EXCELLENT CHINESE ARTIST WHO EMBROIDERED UNIQUE PICTURES FOR $250 EACH - THEY WERE VERE DELICATE! THEY HAD SOME FOOD SHOWS AND VEGETABLE DEMOS.
