Award Pictures
Receiving my award- can you believe I forgot to pack the sparkly top I meant to wear? This top has a black border , it is not really raggedy edged!!!
The projected images didn’t do justice to the actual work, seen below, which literally seemed to glow under the lights and against the black drapes..
After the awards were given and after the crowds were gone.
Lyric Kinard, Ruth Powers, Gloria Hansen. These pictures are courtesy of Gloria who had her camera handy.
We are back from the luncheon to change clothes and return for the SAQA Seasonal Palette Reception and preview night. We caught the free Greenline Shuttle and did the whole loop before returning to the Hyatt just to get the lay of the land and look for places of interest to explore.

Thanks, everyone! I got home safely this afternoon and am in the process of getting everything put away. Back to boring normal.
