ONGOING
UPDATE
NOTICE:
|
With the coming of the new year
(and century, and yes, the real Millennium)
we're making changes in the designwest website.
This page is one of them.
|
So bookmark it...
write yourself a pencil note...
and check it out again very soon...
meanwhile imagine us slaving away at it,
awash at all hours in sketches and flowcharts,
teacups and cookie-crumbs,
spinning like tops.
|
Of course we welcome your feedback too.
Just thought of something brilliant?
Dash it off to us right now!

Corrections log:
Jan 7 changed to Jan 6 for Epiphany. --CharnDM submitted 4 Jan
Feb 2 Groundog day changed to GroundHog day. --ibid.
Sep 30 change to Sep 24 for Folsom St Fair ? --Carolyn submitted 2 Jan (Offical website says 30th -- a Sunday... need to check it further.)

Requests log:
Doo-dah Parade  --Lee   (Anyone have info on this?)
 

Notes:

 "Sports events" center on athletic ability of humans and animals, and we've deemed that to include driving and shooting;
we've chosen to keep dog shows, field trials and such, which primarily assess confirmation and behavior, as "cultural events".

For those of you with a typographer's eye, gnashing your teeth over misaligned text, the page will be redone in CSS eventually. Content before form, though.
HyperLinks coming soon. --Gayle  5 Jan

Commentary, as always, is invited.  designwest@designwest.com
