This page is provided to assist you in catching up with me somewhere along the way!  I am on the road quite a lot from early Spring through Autumn, exhibiting my work at many Irish Festivals, Celtic Gatherings, and also occasionally at Fine Arts Shows, whenever I can work one into the Celtic schedule!! These festivals, shows, and dates may change a bit from time to time, so please check back periodically.

Dear Friends and Patrons!

These days you can find me in Building #4 of our wonderful HUGE Farm and Craft Market, The Windmill.  I should tell you all that The Windmill is a marvelous enterprise that was modeled after the "Green Dragon" in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Here  you can find everything that your heart may desire - Fresh Organic Produce, Flowers, Gifts, Artwork, Books, Clothing, etc., etc.!!!  Come and Visit Us  here in Yates County, NY.   And I might add that we here are are SO very fortunate to have such a large community of relocated Mennonites families!! 
Thus, this wonderful attraction is a draw for many locals/visitors and it is only 7 miles from my home in Penn Yan, NY, located smack-dab in the center of our beautiful 'Finger Lakes Region' of upstate New York. 

My explanation:  following heat exhaustion/stroke [and certainly never having had the genes to cope with excessive temperatures to begin with] I have very reluctantly given up most of my Irish/Celtic Festivals, and I will be working much closer to home.

Make no mistake, dear friends: I am greatly missing, and I will continue to miss, my circle of friends - Vendors and Patrons alike - that I have made along the way during the past twenty+ years!!!   "Tramps and Hawkers" ALL, and God Bless Us!  I was SO privileged to be a part of a really closely knit community during all of these years past, and I'm really missing seeing all of you guys!!!

The reason:  quite frankly, folks, these old bones are getting tired!!  Loading the van, unloading the van, setting up the tent, taking the tent down, loading the van again, driving umpteen hundred miles to get home only to unload the van in order to restock and to repeat the whole performance all over again a week or two later is damned hard work!! 
Anyway, the bottom line is this: I was accepted by the Board of Directors at The Windmill as a Vendor and thankfully, this has been working out quite well for me.  So on Saturdays, folks, this is where I'll be through the "hot months", and with gasoline now at $4.00+ it's a real bargain, and we all know that the entry fees for these events are just too darned expensive for most of us!!

Note: I will  continue to consider attending several Art Shows/Festivals during the early Spring and late Autumn months [And it would certainly help if God might send me a young, strong, Celtic-oriented Assistant!!]....so keep an eye out here, just in case...
Hey, you never know...!!!
