 We know that Beacon’s fireworks are June 29, but what we didn’t realize is that Saturday, June 29, is actually here - as in tomorrow. Maybe that’s because of the time-speed issue our publisher talks about in her column at our friends the Highlands Current.
Start looking for them - summer is high time for shop openings in Beacon, like the Crafty Hammer’s Grand Opening this weekend on South Chestnut Street, across from Rite Aid! Everything you see in the shop, they have built. And their DIY Workshops are going to get you handy too! Plus there will be power drill-shaped cookies. Their flair for DIY is no joke, and their love for you readers is strong, as they are a main sponsor of our Classes and Events Guides! See you there!

Twice this week, when people have bought clothing at Darryl's Women's Clothing Boutique and are showing it off to friends out on the sidewalk, they have been stopped on the street by passers-by to ask where they got that item. We know! It happened to us after we bought the bathing suit coverup featured in our InstaStory last week. This outfit is a sure crowd-pleaser, and it needs to be in your wardrobe collection.
