Being at the Casitas at Arroyo Grande feels like being at home. The "innkeepers" Tony and Pat provide a warm and friendly atmosphere that lets you relax. The casitas are inviting with wonderful vistas, beautiful gardens a firepalce in every room and a great patio.Tony cooks up some of the best breakfasts I've ever had at a B&B. We stayed three nights and every breakfast was different and everyone was delicious! If you want to get away have a great time and relax I don't know of a better place than the Casitas at Arroyo Grande!
Liked — The friendliness of the innskeepers and separate casitas

1 review “A Piece Of Our Hearts”
My boyfriend surprised me with a spur of the moment trip to San Luis Obispo and booked our stay with The Casitas. We had never stayed at a B&B before, and I am so glad my first time was here. We were arriving late on a Friday and the owners Pat & Tony were completely accommodating to the fact that we weren't arriving til 10pm. When we arrived, they gave us a tour and helped us to our room where we were greeted by a homemade snack, sparkling wine from a local winery, and the fireplace ready for a romantic evening. After a great night's sleep, we awoke to the most spectacular view overlooking the valley. Tony brought us our breakfast promptly at 10am and gave us some very useful info (and even a coupon!) for our winery tours for the day. The weekend was so beautiful, my boyfriend was even inspired to propose to me!!!!! When we arrived back to check out, we told Pat and Tony who were more than willing to take pictures for us. All in all we had the GREATEST time and will never forget how the Casitas played a part in our engagement. :)
Liked — The quiet seclusion, home-like feeling, service

1 review “A great place to relax”
Staying at the Casitas of Arroyo Grande was one of our best B&B experiences ever. This B&B is truly a destination in and of itself. The owners, Tony and Pat, are very gracious and attend to your every need. We left feeling like we had been staying with friends. Even the family dog, Rocky, is a joy to be around. He greeted us upon arrival and led us to the main house to meet the owners. Tony is also a great chef and made delicious breakfasts. This B&B is a few miles inland but it sits in a valley that brings a wonderful cool breeze right from the sea to you. It is just a few minutes from the village of Arroyo Grande which is very quaint and has some interesting shops and places to eat. It is also close to many wineries and centrally located to allow an easy day trip to any of the wine regions of the central coast. Hearst Castle and Cambria are also easy day trips from this location. This B&B is definitely different from your typical fare. Each casita is a private little house with its own patio, ensuring you all the quiet and privacy you could want. This would be the perfect place to stay if you want a quiet, beautiful place to just relax. I highly recommend it.
Disliked — nothing negative to say about it

I can't say enough about the fantastic experience we had at The Casitas of Arroyo Grande. The location was spectacular in that every window in our casita displayed a breathtaking view of the Arroyo Grande hillsides. Each day we took in the town and made sure we didn't miss a single winery! Every evening we sat on our own private patio watching the sun go down behind the hills while a warm and inviting fireplace awaited us back in our casita. Comfortable beds and clean accomodations are very important to us and we were extremely impressed with how spotless and fresh everything was at this B&B. I think the only thing I did not mention was the cooking and to not mention what an amazing cook and host Inn Keeper Tony is would be a crime. We enjoyed delicious meals every morning and evening and to be able to adjourn right to our room after each meal and spend the evening reading and relaxing on the patio was a dream! We have stayed at many B&Bs over the years; however, they pale in comparison to the accomodations and outstanding service we received at The Casitas of Arroyo Grande. We can’t wait to go back!
Liked — Impeccably Clean Accommodations, Warm Hospitality, and Overall Beauty of the Location!

As noted above, this visit was the most restful weekend in a long year, and the gorgeous decor and beautiful vistas let me prepare myself for the second half of a busy year. The owners were very friendly and their cooking was all delicious. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

1 review “Wonderful experience at the Casitas of Arroyo Grande”
My girlfriends and I stayed at the Casitas of Arroyo Grande in early July. We just had a fabulous time. During the day we toured wineries, which we were so close to this B&B. At night Tony the Innkeeper made us a fire while we drank more wine and cheese. The views are breathtaking, The pictures on their website don't do it justice. The Casitias were very nice (large and nicely furnished). It beats staying in a hotel room any day. I highly recommend staying at The Casitias of Arroyo Grande. We really had an enjoyable and relaxing time.
Liked — The rooms were large and nicely decorated.

1 review “I wish my "little house" was this nice!”
My fiance and I stayed at the Casitas for a Fourth of July getaway and we had a great time. The owners, Pat and Tony, really roll out the red carpet for their guests, and have turned staying there into a luxury experience. The main house is beautiful, especially the furnishings and the bamboo floors. The entire site is very green friendly, which is a great touch. There's a patio with a great view, and the nighttime sky is breathtaking. And I can't say enough about the casitas themselves. King size bed, great linens, fireplace, high-def TV and the same gorgeous floors from the house. The little houses are cozy and romantic, but also quite large with lots of closet space and lovely furniture. I wholeheartedly recommend the Casitas of Arroyo Grande to anyone looking for a close, high-end vacation.
Liked — The amazing views, the lovely accomidations

The necklace is well made & nothing is wrong with the structure. Shipping & customer service was excellent. I counted off 2 stars because the photograph was misleading. The color of the necklace in the picture was so different from the actual necklace, I didn't even realize I had received it. The picture appears as if the beads are gray(which I was expecting), but the beads are actually a less pleasing shade of vanilla.

Wow, those are great ideas - I wish PE had been that fun in high school. ;-) You could add some "bend and stretch" exercise. I can send you the short list of the "routines" from the year I nannied if you like.
That would be fabulous Lis. Thanks so much. I can use all the ideas I can get.

We finally arrived to the top roof where Ixion is. When we arrived we saw -
Riki : Huh? Ixion!
Ixion : I'm impressed that you all can made it here. But it end here now.
Samuru : Hymp. Big talk.
Ryukai : B-daman don't use talk for battle.
Riki : Ixion, the dragon wielders here, we challenge you to a battle! *Hold up Dracyan*
Ixion : Sure. I accept your challenge.
Ixion walks to the other side, turn around and a huge thing just came up from the the ground, I bet is a new battle machine.
Riki : This is?!
Ixion : A new battle field, for the last and ultimate battle of the Dragon Wielders who here now, is called -!
Then a monitor screen appears and revealed a few people there, wait! is! is!
Granpa : Final DX Break Bomber.
Riki : Granpa Takakura!
Samuru : Dad!
Gennosuke : Samuru...

Rory : Minna-san....
Himiko : Glad you're all safe.
Ryuken : Thank goodness you're all safe.
Basara : Hey, you what about releasing the granpa and the others?
Ryukai : Holding hostages not a good move.
Ixion : *Smirk* Hymp. Then make me! *Set, ready for battle*
Riki : Looks like convincing can't do any work now. Dracyan...
Dracyan : Um. Let's show them -
All : What real power is!
Granpa : Let's me tell you all the rules, this battle field is the upgrade of Final Break Bomber, with 50 columns and rows but it will move side to side just like DX Break Bomber 7 does. Which side get 26 first wins.
Drazeros : Doesn't change at all.
Dragren : Just adding a moving bomber system for the machine. That's all.

Ryukai : As if.
Jenta : Com'on dude.
Riki : *smile* Everyone can smile like this, I'm so happy.
Millay : Hmph! Leisure as usual, idiot. Do you know, now because of that Ixion idiot, the information about the gangs are revealed to the government, now not just Carbuncle, even Sky Feder also disbanded. Well, there's no reveal to the members' name though, but Ichaival them were secured by the governments. I'm was so close to reviving them.
Riki : Millay ... Wait a minute, you're actually happy because that you won't got any troubles from the gangs anymore right?
Millay : *Blush* ?! *Hit Riki* You idiot! What are you saying?!
Riki : That hurts!

“It was a joy! Words weren't dull, words were things that could make your mind hum. If you read them and let yourself feel the magic, you could live without pain, with hope, no matter what happened to you.” ― Charles Bukowski
A couple of months ago, I happened up the rather wonderful blog A Penguin a week, It's the blog of Karyn Reeves, who is an avid collector of old penguin books, specifically those published prior to 1970 before the publisher Allen Lane died. The whole story behind Penguin books is a fascinating one and I urge you to go and read it somewhere, but this is not that blog.
Anyway, I found Karyn's Blog, and I realised that I had quite a few of those old Penguins too. I had often picked them up in charity shops, mainly because I am a fervent disbeliever in the old adage that you should never judge a book by its cover. You should always judge a book by its cover, and Penguin books had fantastic covers. There are some excellent articles out there about the art of the Penguin book cover, but this is not that blog...
So, I read Karyn's blog, and I realised I already had a good few of those Penguins myself, and I started seeking out more of them. Now, as we all know, the purpose of a book is not to own it but to read it. Sitting on a shelf it's just a storage box for used ink. I do have books that I could not bring myself to get rid of even if I lost my ability to read, but mostly if a book is still on my shelves it means I intend to read it again some time. I do know this isn't physically possible unless I live to a very, very ripe old age, but the intention is there.
So, for the last couple of months I have read nothing but old Penguin books. Most of them have taken me about a week. Some less, some more. And I've discovered some fantastic literature. From the sublime 'The Pumpkin Eater' by Penelope Mortimer, to the surprisingly entertaining adventures of Campion in 'Look to the Lady' by Margery Allingham via the almost impenetrable inner worlds of 'Cast but one shadow' by Han Suyin. I've enjoyed them all, some more than others but all have been worth reading.
I'm currently reading 'Aimez-vous Brahms?' by Francoise Sagan, and I'll attempt a review once I've finished. I'll give you a quick preview though - it's great.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to an organic electro-luminescence device array (OLED array) and fabricating process thereof. More particularly, the present invention relates to an active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array and fabricating process thereof. [0003] 2. Description of Related Art [0004] Display apparatuses are the communication interface between people and information. Now the major display apparatuses are the flat panel display apparatuses. Flat panel display apparatuses can be divided into the following types, including organic electro-luminescence display apparatuses, plasma display panel (PDP) apparatuses, liquid crystal display (LCD) apparatuses, light emitting diode (LED), vacuum fluorescent display apparatuses, field emission display (FED) apparatuses and electro-chromatic display apparatuses, etc. Amongst all types of the flap panel display apparatuses, organic electro-luminescence display apparatus have many advantages, such as self-luminescence, wide view angle, energy-saving, simple manufacturing process, low production cost, low operation temperature, fast responsive speed and full-colors. With all the listed advantages, organic electro-luminescence display apparatuses are very likely to be the major flap panel display apparatuses in the near future. [0005] FIG. 1 is a cross sectional view of a conventional organic electro-luminescence device array. Referring to FIG. 1, the organic electro-luminescence device array 100 comprises an active matrix array substrate 110, a patterned dielectric layer 120, a conductive layer 130, an organic luminescent layer 140 and a common electrode layer 150. The conventional fabricating process of the conductive layer 130 utilizes either a sputter process with a shadow mask or a photolithography process along with an etching process. Therefore, the fabricating process of the conductive layer 130 is very complicated and time-consuming and requires additional apparatuses, i.e. shadow masks or photo-masks, resulting in a high fabricating cost. [0006] Additionally, the physical sputter process is utilized during the manufacture of the inverted top-emitting OLED to fabricate common electrode layer 150 over the organic luminescent layer 140 through deposition of films and the process requires high energy for ion bombardment, which will easily damage the organic luminescent layer 140 formed over the active matrix array substrate 110. As a result, the yield rate of the organic electro-luminescence device array 100 is reduced. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0007] Accordingly, the present invention is directed to an active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array capable of reducing the manufacturing cost and promoting the yield rate thereof. [0008] The present invention is also directed to a fabricating process of an active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array capable of simplifying the manufacturing steps and promoting the yield rate thereof. [0009] The present invention comprises an active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array. The active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array consists of an active element array substrate, a patterned rib, a conductive layer, an organic luminescent layer and a common electrode layer. The active element array substrate has a plurality of active elements. The patterned rib is disposed over the active element array substrate and it has a plurality of apertures, which expose the active elements. The conductive layer is disposed over the active element array substrate exposed by the apertures and is disposed over the patterned rib. Further, the portion of the conductive layer disposed over the active element array substrate and the portion of the conductive layer disposed over the patterned rib are not connected. The organic luminescent layer is disposed over the conductive layer in the apertures. The common electrode layer completely and continuously covers the organic luminescent layer and the patterned rib. [0010] The common electrode layer of the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array provides a complete coverage, which reduces consumption of electrical current and promotes the display efficiency of the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array. Additionally, the patterned rib automatically disconnects the conductive layer of each pixel, hence simplifying the fabricating process. [0011] A fabricating process of an active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array is provided. The fabricating process of an active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array comprises the following steps. First, a patterned rib is formed over an active element array substrate, wherein the active element array substrate has a plurality of active elements. The patterned rib has a plurality of apertures and the active elements are exposed by the apertures. Next, a conductive layer is formed over the active element array substrate exposed by the apertures and is formed over the patterned rib, wherein a portion of the conductive layer disposed over the active element array substrate and a portion of the conductive layer disposed over the patterned rib are not connected. Next, an organic luminescent layer is formed over the conductive layer in the apertures. Finally, a common electrode layer is formed, covering the organic luminescent layer and the patterned rib completely and continuously. [0012] The fabricating process of an active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array utilizes the patterned rib and the fully covering common electrode layer to simplify the fabricating steps, promote the display efficiency, and reduce the power consumption.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS [0013] FIG. 1 is a cross sectional view of a conventional organic electro-luminescence device array. [0014] FIG. 2A is a cross sectional view of an active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array according to one embodiment of the present invention. [0015] FIGS. 2B, 2C are top views of the meshed rib of an active matrix organic electro-luminescence device. [0016] FIGS. 3A to 3E shows a fabricating process of an active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array according to one embodiment of the present invention.
DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS [0017] Various specific embodiments of the present invention are disclosed below, illustrating examples of various possible implementations of the concepts of the present invention. The following description is made for the purpose of illustrating the general principles of the invention and should not be taken in a limiting sense. The scope of the invention is best determined by reference to the appended claims. [0018] FIG. 2A is a cross sectional view of an active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array according to one embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 2A, the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array 200 mainly comprises an active element array substrate 210, a patterned rib 220, a conductive layer 230, an organic luminescent layer 240 and a common electrode layer 250. [0019] As shown in FIG. 2A, the active element array substrate 210 has a plurality of active elements 210 a. Active elements 210 a control the amount of electrical current passing through the organic luminescent layer 240 of each pixel in order to regulate the luminescent strength of the organic luminescent layer 240. In one embodiment, the active elements 210 a are, for example, thin film transistors (TFT), which can promote the efficiency of display apparatuses. Undoubtedly, the active elements 210 a can also be light emitting diodes or other active elements. [0020] Referring to FIG. 2A, the patterned rib 220 having a plurality of apertures 260 is disposed over the active element array substrate 210, wherein the pattern of the patterned rib 220 can be meshed or striped. Each aperture 260 exposes at least one active element 210 a. FIGS. 2B and 2C are top views of meshed rib of an active matrix organic electro-luminescence device. As shown in FIG. 2B, when the pattern of the patterned rib 220 is meshed, the shape of the aperture 260 can be quadrangle, triangle, hexagon, circle or other geometric shape. Additionally, as shown in FIG. 2C, the apertures 260 can be arranged in triangles or matrixes. [0021] Referring to FIG. 2A, the conductive layer 230 is disposed over the active element array substrate 210 exposed by the aperture 260 and is disposed over the patterned rib 220. There is a height difference between the surface of the active element array substrate 210 exposed by the aperture 260 and the surface of the patterned rib 220, and the cross-section of the patterned rib 220 is an inverted trapezoid. As a result, when the conductive layer 230 is deposited through sputter or other common fabricating processes, the conductive materials will not cover the active element array substrate 210 continuously and the conductive layer 230 of each pixel will thus be electrically disconnected from one another. Therefore, no complicated fabricating processes, i.e. sputter, photolithography, or etching processes with shadow mask, will be utilized to fabricate the conductive layer230. In addition, the conductive layer 230 a in each aperture 260(i.e. in each pixel) is electrically connected with the active element 210 a exposed by the aperture 260. Thereby, the conductive layer 230 a in each aperture 260 can be a pixel electrode of each pixel in the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array 200. [0022] Referring to FIG. 2A, the organic luminescent layer 240 is disposed over the conductive layer 230 a in the aperture 260. It should be noted that the organic luminescent layer 240 and the patterned rib 220 are covered by the common electrode layer 250 continuously, that is, the organic luminescent layer 240 and the top surface 220 a and the side surface 220 b of the patterned rib 220 are covered by the common electrode layer 250 continuously. [0023] As shown in FIG. 2A, the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array 200 further comprises a protection layer 270 to cover the common electrode layer 250. The protection layer 270 can protect the fabricated active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array 200 from being damaged by outside pollutant or moisture in the atmosphere, ensuring the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array 200 will function properly. In one embodiment, the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array 200 further comprises a cover substrate 280 disposed over the active element array substrate 210. Wherein the organic luminescent layer 240 is sealed between the active element array substrate 210 and the cover substrate 280 to protect the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array 200 from damages. Certainly, the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array 200 can utilize the protection layer 270 or the cover substrate 280 or both of them. [0024] The kind of materials utilized in each layer determines whether the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array 200 to emit light without heat in one direction or in two directions. Referring to FIG. 2A, in one embodiment, the active element array substrate 210 and other layers utilize, for example, the light transparent materials, thereby the luminescence is emitted from the front and the back of the active element array substrate 210, i.e. luminescence in two directions. However, if one layer of the active element array substrate 210 or that of other layers utilizes non-transparent materials, the active element array substrate 210 will only luminesce in one direction. [0025] In one embodiment, the materials of the conductive layer 230 and the common electrode layer 250 are, for example, metals, metal oxide or metal oxynitride. More specifically, the materials of the conductive layer 230 and the common electrode layer 250 can be indium tin oxide (ITO), indium zinc oxide (IZO) or other transparent conductive materials. Certainly either the conductive layer 230 or the common electrode layer 250 can also utilize the non-transparent conductive materials. The materials of the organic luminescent layer 240 include organic luminescent materials that can emit red, blue or green lights. The materials of the common electrode layer 250 include transparent conductive materials, such as indium tin oxide (ITO) or indium zinc oxide (IZO). [0026] FIGS. 3A to 3E shows a fabricating process of an active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array according to one embodiment of the present invention. [0027] Referring to FIG. 3A, a patterned rib 220 is formed over the active element array substrate 210, wherein the active element array substrate 210 has a plurality of active elements 210 a, and the patterned rib 220 has a plurality of apertures 260 exposing the active elements 210 a. In one embodiment, the patterned rib 220 is, for example, formed over the active element array substrate 210 by a simplified photolithography fabricating process. Due to a height difference between the surface of the active element array substrate 210 exposed by the aperture 260 and the surface of the patterned rib 220, and the cross section of the patterned rib 220 is an inverted trapezoid, a plurality of pixel of the organic electro-luminescence device can be defined by the patterned rib 220. [0028] As shown in FIG. 3B, a conductive layer 230 is formed over the active element array substrate 210 exposed by the aperture 260 and is formed over the patterned rib 220. In one embodiment, when the conductive layer 230 is deposited by the sputter or other film deposition processes, a conductive layer 230 cannot be formed over the active element array substrate 210 continuously, because the cross section of the patterned rib 220 is an inverted trapezoid, and there is a height difference between the surface of the active element array substrate 210 exposed by the aperture 260 and the surface of the patterned rib 220. As a result, electrically disconnected pixel electrodes 230 a will be formed in the apertures 260. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3B, a portion 230 a of the conductive layer 230 formed over the active element array substrate 210 and a portion 230 b of the conductive layer 230 formed over the patterned rib 220 are disconnected from one another. [0029] As shown in FIG. 3C, an organic luminescent layer 240 is formed on the conductive layer 230 a in the aperture 260. When electrical currents pass from the conductive layer 230 a to the organic luminescent layer 240, the electro-luminescent effect will occur. In some fabricating process, although an organic luminescent layer 240 is formed over the patterned rib 220, the luminescent effect will not be influenced. [0030] As shown in FIG. 3D, a common electrode layer 250 is formed over the organic luminescent layer 240 and the patterned rib 220. That is, a common electrode layer 250 is deposited over the organic luminescent layer 240 and the top surface 220 a and the lateral surface 220 b of the patterned rib 220. In one embodiment, the common electrode layer 250 is fabricated by, for example, a plasma diffusion process, i.e. ions are formed from the electrode materials by plasma and the ions are then diffused into the organic luminescent layer 240 over the active element array substrate 210 and the top surface 220 a and the lateral surface 220 b of the patterned rib 220, in order to form a continuous common electrode layer 250. The plasma diffusion process utilized in the present invention is very different from the conventional sputter process or other film deposition processes that it has advantages, i.e. a film can be formed continuously over the discontinuity structure by the plasma diffusion process. With the utilization of the plasma diffusion process, large-scaled deposition of the conductive film can be achieved and the fabricated conductive film has a lower resistance and higher flatness. Therefore, the electrical connection between the conductive films will be enhanced and the efficiency of currents utilized will be promoted. [0031] Additionally, due to the lower operation temperature employed by the plasma diffusion process, the organic luminescent layer 240 disposed over the active element array substrate 210 will not be damaged. In one embodiment, the temperature around the organic luminescent layer 240 may be lower than 80 degrees centigrade during the plasma diffusion process for deposition of the common electrode layer 250. Because the organic luminescent layer 240 disposed over the active element array substrate 210 will not be damaged under the foregoing temperature, the yield rate of the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array 200 will be promoted. [0032] As shown in FIG. 3E, after the formation of the common electrode layer 250, a protection layer 270 will be formed on top of the common electrode layer 250. The protection layer 270 can prevent the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array 200 from being damaged by pollutant or moisture in the atmosphere, ensuring the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array 200 will function properly. In one embodiment, the protection layer 270 can also be fabricated into a complete and continuous film by the plasma diffusion process to enhance its protecting effect. [0033] Referring to FIG. 2A, in another embodiment, a cover substrate 280 can be disposed over the active element array substrate 210. Further, the luminescent layer 240 is sealed between the active element array substrate 210 and the cover substrate 280. Thereby the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array 200 will be prevented from damages by external force and moisture in the atmosphere. [0034] To sum up, the present invention, i.e. the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array and fabricating process thereof, has at least the following advantages, but not limited thereto. [0035] (1) The conductive layer can be divided automatically into two portions by the patterned rib, i.e. one portion disposed over the active element array substrate and another portion disposed over the patterned rib. Thereby the fabricating process of the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array can be simplified and the fabricating cost thereof can also be reduced. [0036] (2) Because the common electrode layer is fabricated by a plasma diffusion process of the present invention, a film can be continuously formed to cover the surface of the organic electro-luminescence device. In addition, the operation temperature is lower than that of the conventional fabricating process, ensuring the organic luminescent layer will not be damaged and the yield rate of the active matrix organic electro-luminescence device array will be promoted. [0037] The above description provides a full and complete description of the preferred embodiments of the present invention. Various modifications, alternate construction, and equivalent may be made by those skilled in the art without changing the scope or spirit of the invention. Accordingly, the above description and illustrations should not be constructed as limiting the scope of the invention, which is defined by the following claims.

A Cafe Chat with Author-Illustrator Lee Harper, by Berrie Torgan-Randall
Posted on June 25, 2020	by EasternPennPoints
Welcome to our first Illustrator Day 2020 café chat faculty interview with author-illustrator Lee Harper, our keynote speaker. This year, Illustrator Day will be a virtual event held on Saturday, September 12, 2020. For more information about the event and to register, click here.
Berrie: Hi Lee! It’s a hot, sticky, day in Eastern PA and I have a glass of iced tea making water rings on my studio table. What are you drinking today to keep yourself cool?
Lee: Hi, Berrie! Mostly spring water for me.
Berrie: Would you like a sticky bun to go with that or maybe a fresh egg from your herd of chickens?
Lee: They both sound good, but I think I’ll go with the sticky bun since my spring water’s been filtered through coffee grounds.
Berrie: When I visited your barn during your studio tour a couple of years ago it was the first day for your lambs. How many more animals have you adopted since your studio tour?
Lee: We recently added two Suffolk sheep, bringing the sheep count to five. It feels like a nice-sized herd now. This spring we also adopted ten chickens: four Orpingtons, two Phoenix, two Red Game, one Sicilian Buttercup, and a mystery chicken. The mystery chicken was part of a mail order deal where if you by six you get one free. (Yes, you can order chickens by mail. They put air holes in the box.)
Also new to the farm since you visited is our Great Pryrenees, Maggie. Ostensibly, her job is to protect the chickens and sheep from fox. In a sense she’s been successful. The fox aren’t the ones eating the chickens anymore.
Berrie: How did you get your portfolio in front of the right people to illustrate the first Turkey Trouble book?
Lee: I met Robin Benjamin, an editor at Marshall Cavendish, while participating in a portfolio showcase at an Eastern PA SCBWI Pocono Retreat. She liked what she saw and a few weeks later called with an offer to illustrate a story she’d recently acquired: Turkey Trouble by Wendi Silvano. This was shortly after I signed my first contract with HarperCollins, which was also a result of a connection made at an SCBWI event. I tell you about the Woolbur contract because I think the fact that I was currently working on a book with HarperCollins helped me get the contract with Marshall Cavendish for Turkey Trouble. With Woolbur it was a one-on-one portfolio review at a Fall Philly event with HarperCollins art director Stephanie Bart-Horvath. During the review she invited me up to the main office in New York to meet with the rest of her group, and a few months later they asked me to paint a sample for a baseball-themed picture book they thought suited my style. I painted half a dozen samples! They loved them, but there was still one problem. The author hated them. I didn’t get the job. By this point I was thinking I may never get the opportunity to illustrate a picture book, but the following week HarperCollins called again, this time to offer me my first contract, no samples required.
Berrie: Woolbur is such a sweet story about self-assurance and self-confidence. What did you learn from the story while illustrating the first Woolbur book and from the second book, Ready or Not, Woolbur Goes to School?
Lee: Woolbur changed my life both personally and professionally. On a personal level, Woolbur taught me to be more relaxed in my parenting. In the story, Woolbur, Maa, and Paa are always worrying because Woolbur is a little different from the other sheep. I could totally relate. At the time I was illustrating Woolbur, my youngest son, Dan, was in first grade, and his unusual antics were worrying his mother and me. But in the story Woolbur, Grandpaa wasn’t worried and advised Maa and Paa not to worry. Woolbur would be fine. As I continued working on the illustrations and Maa and Paa’s worrying became sillier and sillier, I began to realize Grandpaa was right. The experience of illustrating Woolbur helped me learn to celebrate Dan’s individuality a little more instead of worrying so much, and Dan did turn out just fine. I also learned a lot about the technical aspects of illustrating from Woolbur. I was incredibly lucky to have an art director who was willing to hold my hand and lead me through the entire process. And of course, I learned a lot about all things sheep related. I visited a lot of sheep farms while gathering inspiration for Woolbur, and some of the people I met at that time became close friends. It also led to me become a sheep farmer myself! The second Woolbur book didn’t come out until ten years and eight books after the first. In the gap between books, my palette, the paper, and the brushes I used had all changed. But HarperCollins wanted the second Woolbur book to stylistically match the first, so I kind of learned how to time travel with the second Woolbur. I returned to sable brushes and cold-pressed watercolor paper when I painted Ready or Not Woolbur Goes to School.
Berrie: What does your creative routine look like in the morning, or are you a night owl?
When my children were young I did the bulk of my creating while they were at school. Now that I’m an empty nester, for the first time in my life I have the freedom to follow my own natural work rhythms. Now I typically wake up at four or five in the morning and work until sunrise. Those quiet hours before dawn are my most creative, and I find it to be the best time to lay out the work for the rest of the day. It’s also a good time to do light box work. At sunrise I let all the animals out, feed and water them, then have breakfast. After breakfast I work until lunchtime. After lunch I take a half-hour nap, work until about three, and then call it a day. That’s usually when I go on a walk or bike ride. After that comes the evening farm routine . . . putting the animals away . . . mending fences . . . there’s always something. Needless to say, I go to bed pretty early.
Berrie: You attended The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and studied painting. How did you get your start in illustrating children’s books?
Lee: I’ve always liked narrative art forms such as cartooning and filmmaking, so it was kind of a no-brainer for me to go into picture books. But it wasn’t until I had kids of my own and read them a zillion picture books that I really began to seriously think about giving picture books a try. The first attempts I made were illustrations for stories my kids and I made up during our many long canoe trips. None of that work was ever published, but it was a start. It helped me learn how to illustrate in a way that was appealing to children. It was helpful to have young children around the house to use as a focus group. Some of my firsts attempts at picture book illustrations were actually very beautiful, but uninteresting to my young critics. I quickly learned I needed to punch up the action and expressiveness.
Berrie: Were there any children’s books that you read to your children growing up that your kids demanded you read over and over?
Lee: I kind of feel like my children demanded every book I read to them be read over and over again, so I decided to let them answer this question.
Naomi: Bedtime For Francis.
Nathan: The Stinky Cheese Man.
Will: The Hungry Caterpillar.
Dan: Dan, The Flying Man.
Berrie: This is the first time Illustrator Day will be held virtually. What do you think will be the pros and cons of having an event in this new format? I’m personally looking forward to staying in my cozy pants all day.
Lee: I much prefer interacting with people in real life. But doing virtual presentations does have some benefits. One of the things I think is cool is that in a virtual presentation you can get a closer view of my working environment than would be possible in a real-life presentation. The cozy pants aspect is also a big plus.
Berrie: Any more Turkey Trouble books in the works?
Lee: Yes. The most recent book in the series, Turkey’s Eggcellent Easter, made Amazon Charts top twenty, which resulted in Wendi and I being signed-up to create two more. I finished the illustrations for the fifth book in the series, Turkey Goes to School, in June, and by the time of the conference I will have begun working on the sixth, A Turkey Valentine. I’m very excited about them both. Wendi has once again come up with some really fun and super silly adventures for Turkey.
Berrie: Thank you for joining me for this virtual café chat. It’s been a joy and a pleasure talking to you. BTW—if Stella (Lee’s adorable German Shepard who was the model for Ready or Not, Woolbur Goes to School) has puppies, can you save one for me?
Lee: It’s been nice talking to you, too. Unfortunately, Stella won’t be having puppies, but Maggie still might. Great Pyrenees are great dogs, as long as you aren’t looking for a chicken guardian.

Yay, Lee! Always good to see you (virtually or IRL). I grew up a 4-H girl with Suffolk sheep–until I refused to have mine eaten. And so the flock became “wool only”!
Rebecca Hoenig says:
Thanks Lee and Berrie! What a great interview. I was also lucky enough to visit Lee’s studio and farm on the day that the lambs arrived- what a memorable treat!

my life as a piece of string: Maes Q! 8/August/17
Maes Q! 8/August/17
my first ever venture into the national Eisteddfod a mere four miles from me this time as it moves around the country to a different location every year ended in failure.... but not without plenty to write about which I won't pen here but will do in a much, much, much, much longer blog later today which will probably take as long to read as I spent in queues (i.e. hours upon hours) in the end without achieving my objective...... getting Wales' premier Welsh language arts and cultural festival.........
ever so long story short, as already said I didn't..... not for want of trying being defeated by queue after queue as to get into a site four miles away I had to go seven miles away to the hastily-cobbled contingency car park site which I can only loosely call a back-up plan I have now renamed Maes Q!..... for queue, of course ........ maes being Welsh for field and also general term for the Eisteddfod site itself (y Maes) and all the different areas within it, such as Maes B, Maes D, etc.........
despite all my planning and preparation and hopes for my first ever Eisteddfod experience I found myself back home after 4 hours of getting nowhere fast....... those brave souls who succeeded still took up to three hours from parking to site although many sadly abandoned all hope...... I had success in getting others there directly to site but me, with the car and nowhere to park anymore meandered home sporting not the 'd' for "dysgwr" (Welsh language learner) but the 'd' for disappointment........
will I try again before the end of the week?... the pessimist in me is doubtful....... if I scrabble down the back of the sofa I might rediscover a crumb of optimism I lost there ages ago........

TripAdvisor | Sarawak Semenggoh Wildlife Centre Tour provided by Asni Tours & Travels | Kuching
Sarawak Semenggoh Wildlife Centre Tour provided by Asni Tours & Travels
For over 20 years, the wardens here trained young orangutans, who had been orphaned or rescued from captivity, how to survive in the wild. The success of this programme has left the surrounding forest reserve with a thriving population of healthy adolescent and young adult orang utans, who are now breeding in the wild. The programme has been transferred to Matang Wildlife Centre, but Semenggoh is still home to its successful graduates, semi-wild orang utans and their babies. They spend most of their time roaming the forest but frequently come back to the Centre for a free meal. If it is the fruiting season in the forest, some or even all of them may not come to feed. This in itself is a good sign and another step on the way to full rehabilitation.
Semenggoh Wildlife Centre is home to semi – wild orang utans where they are trained to fend for themselves in their natural surrounding. Some or even all the orang utans may not come to the centre to feed ( 0900hrs / 1500hrs ) especially if it is fruiting season in the forest.
Tour start and proceed for 20 minutes’ drive to Semenggoh Wildlife Centre. The Centre is the biggest Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre in Sarawak that established in 1975 as a sanctuary for the injured and orphaned Orang Utans. These animals are trained or re-trained to survive in their natural habitat. They learn how to forage for natural food and build nests in the trees. However there are few that will never re-learn their wild skills due to their long association with and resulting dependence on humans. Take a walk on the trails and try to spot semi-wild Orang Utans. There are feeding times scheduled every day at the feeding platform. However always bear in mind that the main aim of the Centre is to return these animals back into their habitat. Do not be disappointed if you do not see any roaming the jungles or coming back to feed as this means they are able to forage on their own and do not need human assistance.
Get quick answers from Sarawak Semenggoh Wildlife Centre Tour staff and past visitors.

Heroes for All Ages and a Day : Nickelodeon calls in a famous dog, horse and porpoise for 'Super Pets Day' - latimes
March 24, 1991|SUSAN KING | TIMES STAFF WRITER
Probably every baby boomer who watched "Lassie" Sunday evenings on CBS from 1954 to 1971 wanted a collie just like her for his or her own.
No wonder. Lassie was ideal. Her coat was perfect. She never needed brushing and she never shed. She was house trained. She never chewed shoes. Lassie understood exactly what humans were saying and even had telepathic powers. And she didn't even mind being called Lassie even though she actually was a laddie.
One could call Lassie a "Super Pet." So it makes sense that "Lassie" would kick off Nickelodeon's "Super Pets Super Saturday," three hours of episodes from "Lassie," "Flipper" and "Mr. Ed."
The tribute begins at 9 a.m. with Lassie at her most courageous in an episode called "Trapped." This time around, she rescues Mrs. Martin (June Lockhart) from a mean and hungry cougar after Mrs. Martin somehow gets her leg caught in a trap. In "Rockhound" (10:30 a.m.), Lassie saves the day by capturing a bank robber.
"Flipper" first splashed into youngsters' hearts in 1963 in the hit movie "Flipper" and the sequel "Flipper's New Adventure." The movies spawned an NBC series in 1964, which ran for two seasons. Everyone's favorite dolphin performs his feats, or rather fins, of derring-do in two installments.
In "Explosion" (9:30 a.m.), Flip prevents a disaster when a first-time diver gets the bright idea of detonating explosives underwater. And in "Flipper and the Shark Cage" (11 a.m.), Bud (two-legged regular Tommy Norden), discovers an iron shark cage and decides to sell it for scrap metal. Bud runs into difficulties, though, when he gets trapped inside the cage. Flipper senses something fishy is going on and saves Bud from this peril.
And then there is, of course, the famous "Mr. Ed," which aired from 1961 to 1965 on CBS. The talking horse's amazing talents are on display in two episodes. Not only did the late Ed talk and dial the phone, he also was a speed demon behind the wheel of a car. In "Ed, the Chaffeur," airing at 10 a.m., Ed insists driving is easy and proves it by driving around town and driving Wilbur (Alan Young) crazy. Ed also was a very musical horse as demonstrated in "Ed, the Musician," (11:30 a.m.). Ed is in a pout because he's the only living creature not involved in the local variety show, so he decides to become a one-man band and practices at midnight in the barn.
"Super Pets Super Saturday" airs Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon on Nickelodeon.

Real Sociedad 1-2 Real Madrid: Di Maria great-strike, Ronaldo free-kick | Soccer Highlight Video
Real Sociedad 1-2 Real Madrid: Di Maria great-strike, Ronaldo free-kick
Real Madrid managed to reap the full point in the trip to Real Sociedad's headquarters. 2-1 victory to deliver care team Jose Mourinho to the top standings.
In the match in Anoeta Stadium, Saturday (18/09/2010) , Madrid opened the scoring through Angel Di Maria great-strike. After a comparable Raul Tamudo, Cristiano Ronaldo scored the winning goal for El Real through free-kick.
These results bring Madrid to the top of La Liga standings with seven points from three matches results. Sociedad are pocketing was down four points to rank seventh.
Two minutes after the referee blew the whistle marks the start of the match, Real Madrid presents a direct threat. Kick from outside the penalty box off at Maria Angel who can still ignored goalkeeper Claudio Bravo.
The seventh minute, the chance to turn Sociedad. Xabi Prieto cross Griezmann headed by by Antonio, but the effort was still flying above the Casillas crossbar .
Kick in the ninth minute Xabi Alonso could still be domesticated by Bravo.
Host showed a golden opportunity on 24 minutes. Raul Tamudo pass ball successfully Griezmann greeted with a kick that was still a thin flat beside the wicket Casillas.
Five minutes later, the host again threatened. Mesut Oezil who helped the defense on the right side to lose balance and the ball was taken, Xabi Prieto.
Prieto then sends the ball into penalty box. But Raul Tamudo who were there failed to convert the feed into a goal.
Seven minutes into the gap, flat In-kick from outside the penalty box Mary is still difficult for Bravo.
Impasse in this fight broke out in minute 51, with the goal belonged to Madrid. Scores for Los Galacticos recorded by Angel Di Maria.
Perform a puncture of the left, then drove to the Maria penalty box. Although overshadowed Argentine opponent was able to remove the shots that lead to measurable long pole and tore the goalpost Sociedad.
The advantage lasted only 11 minutes. Sociedad managed to score goals by Raul Tamudo. Originated from a free kick which was released Griezmann from the right side, the ball then hit Tamudo body and tore wicket Iker Casillas.

Astronaut Scott Carpenter Dies - Witnessed Alien Craft On The Moon - Oct 10, 2013 |UFO Sightings Hotspot
As a young airman, my path took me into a close encounter with Colonel Aldrin, more than 30 years ago. As a chauffeur with a radio-operated staff car, I served at Lackland AFB when Colonel Aldrin was undergoing a series of tests there.
One afternoon my radio crackled that colonel Aldrin would need a ride to Wilford Hall, the large base hospital. Sadly my car wasn't chosen. I've often wondered since then whether the "nervous breakdown' this remarkable astronaut suffered was due to the government pressure or not. I think it was.
According to Steckling: "The following list of facts I have learned from several individuals who are working or who have worked or been linked with NASA in some way over the years. For obvious reasons I will not now use their real names. The list below represents some of the information from three people: one is currently working in DOD missions for NASA; another started working with NASA & DOD when JSC (Johnson Space Center) was built. The third is a scientist who has worked at NASA and other facilities (and with) Edward Teller."
There are buildings on the Moon.There is mining equipment on the Moon. Photos, NASA photos, do exist which clearly show both of these. Hundreds, but probably thousands, of NASA photos have been tampered with. Specifically, by careful use of an airbrush, flying saucers and other UFOs can be removed, and then the photo is released to the public and/or press.
NASA knew about 'alien' activity on the Moon before Armstrong, Aldrin, and Collins ever set foot on it. Aldrin at one point found evidence that we were NOT THE FIRST to arrive on the moon. After first seeing and then taking photographs of footprints in the lunar soil (Aldrin) then saw the beings that made the footprints (the report and transcripts of conversations between the astronauts were not clear if Aldrin had physical and/or mental contact with the entities).
"Alien Vehicles" flew within 50 feet of a U.S. space vehicle for one full Earth orbit and then the AV departed; again while Aldrin was present.
'Buzz' Aldrin had a nervous breakdown because of these events and the pressure not to talk.There have been 22 deaths (many 'suicides') at JSC in Houston. No astronaut who has seen AVs or ETs is allowed to talk about it, even amongst themselves. If they do and are caught they may be fined, publicly humiliated, imprisoned, or have all pensions and future salaries taken away.'(my emphasis).
Return to Earth, Aldrin's autobiography, tells of his struggle with depression and alcoholism following his long and dedicated USAF and NASA career. Did NASA, CIA and the Pentagon compell Colonel Aldrin (and every other astronaut) to conceal what they saw on the moon?
How much did this contribute to Aldrin's mental problems? Some time ago the Science Channel aired a program called "First on the Moon: The Untold Story.' One segment described a UFO encounter that Apollo 11 astronauts witnessed during flight to the moon. Aldrin spoke of something he saw. To the best of my knowledge, this is the first time that Buzz Aldrin, an Apollo 11 astronaut, had ever publicly recounted any UFO experience associated with the Apollo 11 moon mission,' wrote Dave Stone.
Buzz Aldrin remarked, "There was something out there that, uh, was close enough to be observed and what could it be?...Mike (Collins) decided he thought he could see it in the telescope and he was able to do that and when it was in one position, that had a series of ellipses, but when you made it real sharp it was sort of L shaped.' "NASA knew very little about, um, the object reported by the Apollo 11 crew. It was obviously an unidentified flying object,' said Senior NASA scientist, Dr. David Baker. "But such objects were not uncommon and the history of even earth orbit space flights going back over the previous years indicated that SEVERAL CREWS SAW OBJECTS" (emphasis mine).
"Now, obviously, the three of us were not going to blurt out, 'Hey Houston we got something moving along side of us and we don't know what it is,' observed Aldrin. "We weren't about to do that, cause we know that those transmissions would be heard by all sorts of people and who knows what somebody would have demanded that we turn back because of Aliens or whatever the reason is, so we didn't do that but we did decide we'd just cautiously ask Houston where, how far away was the S-IVB?'"
The S-IVB served as the third stage on the Saturn Vand second stage on the Saturn IB. It had one J-2 engine. For lunar mission it was used twice: first for the orbit insertion after second stage cutoff, and then for the trans lunar injection (TLI). Now NASA reported the separated stage 6,000 miles behind. Obviously they didn't detect any UFO.
Aldrin replied: "And a few moments we decided that after a while of watching it (UFO), it was time to go to sleep and not to talk about it anymore until we came back and (went through) debriefing."
NASA scientist, David Baker said, "There were a lot of people within the program who went off later and became convinced that UFOs existed and that led to some concern on NASA's part where they got the agreement of the crew never to publicly talk about these things for fear of ridicule."
Perhaps one day, a living astronaut, a once-and-future hero, will come forward and frankly say what he saw and experienced. "One of these guys---sooner or later---has to go public," observed one prominent UFO researcher." This is a cosmic cover-up of the highest order."
At no time, when the astronauts were in space were they alone: there was a constant surveillance by UFOs.

I think the Greys are using the moon as a base.

Many MANY are using the moon as a base.
Not merely One of the grey factions.
Perhaps, but I believe that Greys are the major race on the moon. Ingo Swann and others have remote viewed the moon and the beings that they saw there closely resemble the Greys. On earth, it is mostly Reptilians, but there are many other races as well. Most of the UFOs that we see are from here or close by...they usually have bases here on earth, moon, or nearby planets.

Scott Carpenter did not go to the moon but he saw the evidence from NASA that aliens and their craft was seen by other astronauts who went to the moon. These brave guys are coming forward and finally reporting the truth.....
