Sorry to use the forum in this way, but hoping my Northern CA friends were not affected by the earthquake. Sending you all positive thoughts and best wishes! -Mel

Thanks Mel,
We shook a lot for about 5 seconds - which is a good long time for a quake - but no damage. And, none of the aftershocks reached us here in the East Bay.

The Northern CA Bead Society had their scheduled "member's sale" this afternoon in Albany, CA, and it was very poorly attended - not sure if this was quake related, but the local traffic was a mess for most of the day. Possibly more people than normal were leaving the Napa area earlier in the day than would be expected on a Sunday. Or maybe people who were wakened at 3:20 AM just didn't feel energetic enough to go out.

There were only about 1/2 dozen tables selling beads (instead of the previous 15 or more) and a just a few folks at each of the three project tables where using filigree findings, making beaded tassels, and using Apoxie Sculpt were being taught. There was also a nice selection of food for the potluck - much more than needed.

Nevertheless we all had fun whiling away the afternoon with the beads and with our bead pals.
