You can purchase one of those throw away cameras at any store and they task great pictures, some even take digital pictures. I think they're about $8.00. You have to have photos... [Big Grin]

I scanned all the jewelry into my computer. That's how I get the pics on my website too. It's just a matter of time...

Taking a pic of my display might be difficult because it's through glass, and the case itself isn't lit. The display is in a locked case, thank goodness!

The awards ceremony lasts for an hour, and I have no idea why it will take that long. Maybe 5 minutes of reading the names of the winners, and we get to smile and say something obscure. Then on to 55 minutes of cake and punch.

The water heater is getting delivered "sometime after 2 pm" so I may have to help hubbo with that (take out the old one. Clean the water heater shed. Install new one) and skip the awards, depending on how late it's delivered.

UPDATE:
I've also won the following, in Home & Hobbies (a different department than Gems & Minerals):

2nd place -- Professional Jewelry
3rd place -- recycled bottles
4th place -- Professional Crafts, "other".

Only one of my four entries here didn't get a ribbon. This is also the first year I've placed at all in either of the Professional classes. Orange County Fair is BIG and these categories draw a lot of entries.

So now I have 5 ribbons for 2005! [Big Grin]

Meredith, find some way to go. You deserve your moment. We know you work long and hard making your beautiful pieces. Now they have been highly recognized with ribbons and an awards ceremony. The water heater can wait. Ribbons, speech, cake and punch...now thats a different story. I wish you would reconsider.
