[Peace-discuss] indoor market -- we are in

We did ask the Holiday Market people about selling under the old terms
for one final year, and they agreed. So we *will be in Lincoln Square*
for all six weeks, Nov. 10 - Dec. 15, and can sell our calendars etc.
(In future years, if we sell anything, it'd have to be Illinois-made
stuff. Perhaps we could make our own calendars...)
But people have offered a lot of good ideas and we can still carry them
out. I love the notion of sending peace to people we think need it!
