Full house at Rusty and Ingrid Handmade Fine Art Screen Prints

Another great event on Sunday at Rusty & Ingrid Creative Company Handmade Fine Art Screen Arts.

If you are on Lexington Avenue make sure you stop by and visit this great studio. The kids loved it making their own screen print.

Lots of Trick or Treaters on Main Street

Halloween on Main Street was a great success.  There were Peas in a Pod, Dapper Dogs, The Flintstones, Annie, Strawberry Short Cake, Super Heroes, Cleopatra,  Little Red Riding Hood and many more.  One of the most interesting was a mom with her infant in a snuggler dressed as a box of popcorn.  All in all a very fun time for all.

The Pearl Mist

The Pearl Mist was docked at Cruise Port for a couple days last week.  Here is some information from Wikipedia.

October 24, 2015 The Pearl Mist

 

From Wikipedia:

The Pearl Mist is a small Cruise ship, built in Halifax, Nova Scotia.[1] After her completion, years of legal dispute delayed her being put into operation, and she didn’t finally leave on her inaugural voyage until June, 2014. She is currently operated by Pearl Seas Cruises.[2]

The Baltimore Sun, reported the vessel was ordered from Irving Shipyards in 2006, and that Pearl Seas and Irving began their dispute in 2007, just five months after construction of the vessel began.[3]

The vessel is 335 feet (102 m) long, and the small size is described as a virtue, allowing the vessel to visit small ports that have to be skipped by larger vessels.[1] The vessel is described as being outfitted as a “luxury”, with 105 double rooms, all equipped with an outside balcony. The vessel is equipped with wifi.

In the summer of 2014 and 2015 her passengers visited Great Lakes ports.[4]
