I hope people feel welcome. It’s part of the charm of this, here, town that everyone seems friendly. And I hope to impress them to let them know I care about this responsibility which they’ve given me. Well, I should do some sewing and make some bunting. There’s some cloth I saved for a rainy day, but, well, no rain, please! Time is short, but I’ll be quick. Nearly done it all with Rufus as my sidekick. Good boy, you really are! Up it goes, right in place! Thanks for the help, Grandma! Now what else to add here? Something rustic I’d say. What do we have lying around? Surely, we must have more old stuff on the grounds. And hey! Look here!! What a find this may be: milk churns? Did this place have cows?!? No time to think that, a festival is coming. Need to be prepared for that! A few spring flowers and the churns look great. No a bad job even if done in haste. But with the challenge set to prepare this event —

So, what other appeal does this festival need for the townspeople of our Hopewell Bay to enjoy this little fiesta? Well, a market stall would be a start to let people taste these wonderful berries and buy them to make a tart. Plenty of wood left to make that booth, and it will be a winner for those who like to bake. I wonder how much we have? That I don’t know. Let’s hope they grow and grow! Because wouldn’t it be great if during the festival we ran out of them? But then it’s been 50 years so who would know the berried we’ll have in tow? I hope it’s more than many. What more than many? Oh ho! Again I diverge! These questions for another time. No time to lose! Well, I mustn’t forget that we need a Hopeberry mascot —
