Hi friends! Since I was away, we got a late start on our “Dance with the Local Stars” 😬 BUT, we are working extra hard—and I think it’s going to be a blast! Please consider supporting us, not only will you be helping kids, teens and families, we need all the help we can get! 😓1/2
I got the F&G! This book has been a Loooong time coming; you might remember me mentioning it a few years ago when I took photos of the Oakland Buddha. So hoping, I can get it a warm welcome into the world with all my preorder efforts!
So pls consider preordering!
