This week I am preparing for the Bainbridge Island Studio Tour -- Friday through Sunday (December 3,4,5). My Howard's Creations booth will be at the Bainbridge Island Grange Hall. We will be open from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm each day. The Grange Hall is located at 10340 Madison Ave NE. From Highway 305 turn east at Sportsmans Club Road and then left on Madison. The Grange is just up the hill on the right.

Meanwhile I am working on some additions to my website. After being frustrated by a lack of local weather data (and we really have had some weather recently) in either the Kitsap Sun, Seattle media, or locally based web sites... I am adding weather data and forecasts. The data is gathered from various public databases and will include lots of historical data dating back to 1911. Forecasts are provided by the National Weather Service. The primary original data source will be the weather station that is maintained by the Port of Bremerton at the Bremerton National Airport. If you are keeping score this station is called "KPWT".

It has been a very interesting project finding all of these sources of weather data. Parts of this should be available before the end of November.
