10 days ago, Marash Girl was in Santa Rosa, California, visiting the Charles Schulz Museum. What fun that was, even though she missed the comic book giveaway by a day ! The special exhibit through August 12 is entitled, Leveling the Playing Field, a common theme throughout the history of Schulz's cartoons, and the perfect exhibit to be viewed on Mother's Day, if you happened to be lucky enough to be there yesterday. (And mothers who were there yesterday had free admission!) The special event on the day Marash Girl visited? Children reading story books to their dogs!
