My daDDy he is making a paintinG that is gonna be raffled off for five dollar tickets during our Heritage festival September19 downtown here. The TiffiN Art GuilD does an auction every year and members paint or decorate sumthin fer it to raise money. They already done rocking chaiRs and trash barrels and lamps, now this year they are doinG about 25 liddle plastic carousel horseS that are about a yard long and a cupple feets high. My daDDy he dint want to do one of them so he is making a Nice paintinG for the raffle. There's gonna be 120 five-dollar tickets, so it should raise about 600 dollars. They go on pre-sale soon as he gets the painting done and in its nice gold frame. He is donating the painting and the frame. Such a nice guy, huh?
Here's the paintinG "in-progress."

That's Rosie Rosebud nappin there.
Now I gonna go help my daDDy make a big strawberry-rewbarb pie. See ya later.
