When Pony Pal, Lily, saw a copy of the Farm Stand Fresh cookbook that I illustrated, she recognized my name. "That's the author of the Pony Pals," she exclaimed. So her grandfather brought her to The South Street gallery to meet me. She came in while I was taking down the show. Those orange dots show some of the oil paintings that were sold. I gave Lily an autographed copy of Ava Tree and the Wishes Three. We had a fun visit and I learned that Lily is a serious figure skater who loves reading. She is working at a library this summer. I was a little sad taking down the show, but meeting a Pony Pal definitely cheered me up.
