It's wonderful how all of the ladies' logos or artwork are on their tops... and they all go into their respective businesses.
AMAZING what you can do with a few pics, google maps and biz websites!
Funny to see ME going into the only male owned biz - GOOD VIBES CAFE - but that's where YOUR movies play on the big screen!
PS Susan Leigh Pickering will be playing at the Second Saturday Artwalk on Sat., November 8th while "Ladies of Linden" plays at Good Vibes down the street!
