For about one year now, my mother decided to start a business (rather small) and go to little craft shows and festivals to sell her custom made jewelry.  So this past weekend she had a booth set up at Kent Cornucopia days.  (My Parents live in the Greater Seattle area)

I got an email from her this morning about how well she did since this was a 3 day (all weekend) show.  Then in the email she mentioned a shooting right down the street.  In the email I don’t this she was really sure what really happened.  So I was going through more email and I get a daily email from the Seattle area (I lived there for 32 years) and of course this was one of the headlines.

Here was the headline:  ‘Police search for suspect in youth’s fatal shooting’

A 17 year old was shot to death in the head going in to a local Arby’s restaurant.

Police have not ruled out that the shooting was gang related. During the argument, the gunman pulled out a handgun and fired rounds.

The teen’s identity had not been officially released Sunday morning.

Detectives ask that anyone with information contact them at 253-856-5800 or Crime Stoppers of Puget Sound at 800-CRIME-13.

However, no one from the festival was hurt or injured and my mom had a really great selling weekend!

I’m going to try something here on my blog since it’s fairly new. Well it’s been around years but that’s a long story I will save for later. So I have acquired 2 pairs of earrings from webersoriginals.com, a brand new site that makes custom handmade jewelry. She has been making jewelry and crafts for about 1 year and now trying to offer her products to a bigger audience.

Yes I know this isn’t a huge contest by any means, but its free earrings right?
