Every now and then, a month comes along where everything clicks and all of the hard work seems to come together (or maybe just all at once).   October has been one of those months.  It has been a month of preparations, exhibitions, presentations, and finally,  rewards for work well done.     Maybe once October is behind is, we call sit back and take a deep breath….but I doubt it.   In the meantime, the month is not over yet.  Scroll down to see what you might be missing.
