Happy and Sad

It is true.  The FISH bench has a new home.

Last night was the auction for all 16 of the Take a Seat in the Islands’ benches.  The community hall was full in North Hero with folks sipping and noshing!  The auction was great fun.  Seeing all the benches in one place was great – they were all so very different!  The Fish bench was in the final third of the auction – the crowd was warmed up and it was obvious the Holiday Harbor folks were in it for the long run! The bench went home with them.

Jim and I chatted for a bit and found out how excited they were to have the bench at Holiday Harbor Motel.  They have been renovating the rooms in the motel and wanted this as a conversation piece in the newest area.  You might guess that the Holiday Harbor Motel attracts LOTS of fishermen and women!  We plan to go have a look-see sometime soon!  You should, too!
