Howdy all. This Saturday 10/6 Magpie is kicking off a new exhibit by local artist Craig Bostick. And to celebrate we're having a sale of 10% off everything in the store all day on 10/6. So if you're in the 'hood checking out HONK, perhaps you'll want to drop by Magpie too.

Today's Herald is chock-full of articles about our neighborhood. At least the online version is; I haven't seen the printed paper yet.
