I’ll have some of my best work displayed at these locations so please stop by.

Volcano will have their always stellar wines available for a very fair price and the Pandora’s Backpack will have their always awful wine available for free!  It should be noted that while Rod Bien’s(owner of Pandora’s Backpack) taste in wine has been know to make winos gag, they do have a beautiful collection of Patagonia clothing that will make any outdoor enthusiast giddy with excitement.
