Greetings! 

 First and foremost, I want to invite all of you to come out to Niwot's Rhythm on the Rails to see on of my favorite groups, all female group, Glass Ceiling. You all know how much I love to see women ROCK and these gals deliver. Plus I’m thrilled that I will sing one song with them. I want to thank Hazel Miller and her band for doing a great job here last week (see pics). Three Thursdays in a row we’ve had rain, but it never dampens the spirit of Niwot….our concerts continue rain or shine! So come out tonight!

 

 Second, I want to invite all of you spend your early part of the 4th of July here in Niwot! Festivities begin with a pancake breakfast in front of the Niwot Market, 7:30 to 10:30 am, Parade at 11 am, kid's games with prizes,11:30 to 3 pm, historic walking tours, hot dogs, snowcones, watermelon, and live music from noon to 3 in 3 different locations: Laurie Dameron at Winot Coffee, Niwot's most famous musician, Pete Wernick (Dr. Banjo) in Pat's lot next to Niwot Realty, and Niwot High School rock combo, Bassline in Whistle Stop Park, with special guest singer..Rockin' Robin! There's something for all ages and it's all FREE. And of course, all the stores will be open so let Freedom and my register RING!

 Band of the Week Video:  I was hoping to find some video of Glass Ceiling and sure enough, there was new ones on Youtube from a very recent show they did (less than two weeks ago) opening for Lez Zeppelin at the Aggie Theater in Ft. Collins. There are several videos to choose from on Youtube, but the one I picked for this week for this site is a Doobie Brothers Classic. Enjoy!

 

 Clothes and pics this week: Everyone who walks in the store says the same thing lately..."Your store looks great...it looks so full and such great clothes!" Proud to say I have to agree on all 3 assessments. In addition to all the amazing things that have come in recently (my faves are in the pics today), got in a bunch of vintage military hats....be sure to check out the slide show today for the cream of the crop as well as shots from last week's Rhythm on the Rails with Hazel Miller.
