Whitman Works Finale!

 MIKE KRAUS'
SOLO SHOW AT WHITMAN WORKS
FINAL WEEK!

We've been having so much fun that we can't believe it's almost over.  There's been parties, good food, plenty of drinks, seen old friends, made new one's, and sold pieces to our neighbors and patrons as far away as Australia.  As pieces have found new homes, they've been replaced with new works.  So, if you haven't been to Whitman Works in a couple weeks, it's almost a new show.  THANKS AGAIN for all your support and please join us at:

Autumn In Upstate New York

Two pieces of business before we start off:

1) Thanks to everyone for wishing me a happy birthday and all. An extra special thanks goes out to my new family. Dick and Marianne for the dinner and ice cream cake and everything else over the years. And, of course to Rich and Rachel, for letting us take up space in your house and watch everything from Antiques Roadshow to Jersey Shore. Thanks!!!

2) On the left, you'll notice a Facebook "like" button. I'm not 100% sure how useful this is. It may be an easier way for you to get updates on the blog. It may just end up being a pain. But, if you like Mike Kraus: The Blog give it a try and we can see how it works together!!!

And now, for the show...

Photobucket
The theme of this past weekend was "agriculture of Upstate New York. Megan is showing you some of the fine produce of the Rochester area

Photobucket
For my birthday, Rachel made me a card showing us holding hands because we are friends.

Photobucket
The Penfield Hots Garbage Plate. One of the most dangerous meals known to mankind. It's everything you like on one plate that will make you hate yourself when you eat it all.

Photobucket
The Apple Tree Inn, http://appletreeinn.us/, in Brockport, which is just west on Rochester. We met up with Pete and Sarah Marche here for an "afternoon of apples." You really can't go wrong with any meal here. Collectively, we had the salad with some kind of walnut apple dressing, the pumpkin spice soup, vegetable mac and cheese, "Our Famous Chicken Pot Pie," and a couple of other things. All of them were great. It was great by itself, not in comparison to the previous garbage plate...

Photobucket
Pete, Megan, and Sarah and Robb Farm, http://www.robbfarms.com/, picking apples

Photobucket
How 'bout dem apples?

Photobucket
What do you do when you see an apple you want high up on a tree? Ride someone's shoulders of course!

Photobucket
Moments after this shot, I had a decision to make: capture an iconic image of Pete standing at a 45 degree angle with his wife flying through the air or catch said wife for safety. I think helping catch Sarah was a wise decision since I don't want to alienate the few friends I have here.

Photobucket
Well... So much for not wanting to alienate myself. I have to show this pic of Sarah climbing the tree like Tarzan going after an apple? What's strange is I don't see any apples on this tree...

Photobucket
A few bags of apples later, a few other purchased fruits and veggies, and an apple donut later, we are all set. Thanks Sarah and Pete!

Photobucket
Here's Rachel "Tachel" at Wickham Farms, http://www.wickhamfarms.com/, which is some kind of a farm/farmer's market/amusement park/roadside attraction. It's a pretty popular place to bring the neighborhood kids and an interesting way to preserve some of the agriculture which is being depleted by the quickly expanding suburban developments. This is a bunch of kids of the Jumping Pillow

Photobucket
More of Tachel on the Jumping Pillow

Whoops...

Photobucket
One last bounce into the sand...

Photobucket
I believe this sheep is named Molly. Maybe the goat was Molly. Maybe there was no Molly at all...

Photobucket
Little Jerry Seinfeld knows how to take care of himself

Photobucket
Tachel milking the wooden cow. Just for piece of mind, don't look under the board on top of the cow.

Photobucket
Megan looking over the pumpkins that will soon be painted and carved

Photobucket
Tachel running through the little corn maze. There's a bigger corn maze, which is a 30-45 minute experience

Tachel the Scarecrow...

That's all from the hamlet of Rochester. Thanks again for everything involving my birthday. Also, don't forget to click the "like" button on the left.

xoxo,
Mike
