FLASHBACK FRIDAY

 FLASHBACK FRIDAY

The last 2 weeks have been very busy.  I wanted to share a fun evening Dave and I had recently.

Our very good friend invited us to be her guests at her fundraiser.

Shanti Landon is running for a second term as the Placer County Supervisor of her district.

She has done such an amazing job as Supervisor in her first term,  that to me its a no-brainer to have her in this position again.

The one thing that's interesting about this is we aren't in her district and can't vote for her.  

We just talk about her where ever we go and give our input.

She is an amazing woman with a wonderful testimony.  She Walks the Walk and Talks the Talk.

The fundraiser was held in Lincoln, CA in an old historical school house from 1888.  It is called the Fruitvale Schoolhouse.  The school closed in 1946 as the population changed and the school had outgrown the building.

Its now used as an event location.

A great view of the flag through the smudgie window.

I love the old school bell that calls the kids into the room.  Everyone had to give it a tug to hear that wonderful sound.

I really love this beautiful woman and how she engages everyone in conversation.

The flag that you see partially behind Shanti is handmade.  It represents all the men from this district that lost their lives before and during WWI and there were many for such a small community.  You can also see the flag more clearly in the first picture of Shanti and her husband.

I do wish we could vote for her.  She is such a calm voice of reason in this chaotic  world.

Here's some fun "Fortunes" that were in cookies for the invited guests.

Always be Grateful

Always be Kind
