Had a sign-up book out at the last opening, the one at the The Long Island Bar on May 10. You know, “sign up for the email list and win this little print of the Long Island Bar complete with an audacious frame.” Colleen set it up nicely, on the corner of the bar, with flowers, the print itself, a little sign and some business cards. Within five minutes a couple sat down there so we moved it all near a window, and people signed in. Anyway, we picked a name at random to win the print and that name was….

Charlie Fitzpatrick!

Thanks for signing up, Mr. Fitzpatrick, and congrats on obtaining this lovely little print of the Long Island Bar, audacious frame and all.
