travels

I am heading out again. I am behind on Facebook and email so just know that I am thinking of all of you. Especially Jen L in Salem... We have a plan to check out the wineries and maybe some flower farms so we will set some dates and swing by to get you!

Ubi and Ro say hi.

Oh, stay current with the travels here and see pictures here.

Happy Birthday dear brother!

My little brother turns 21 today. I have not talked to him in a while. We do not talk much anymore. Time and distance change things.

No matter where you are or what you are doing, you are still my brother and I love you. Take care and please call me.

AH! So behind!

I am behind on my blog, Facebook, and email.

Tucson was great. Scott and Paula are fun to hang with and I love sunshine. I love birds and butterflies. Cactus I am neither here nor there about. I dislike old men who laugh at people when the swing their arm into a cactus and cut themselves, all the while saying 'keep your arms in at all times.' Dude, not funny. Do not laugh at other people's pain.

Here are a couple of my favorite shots, both taken by my sweetie Alan. The blue butterfly stayed on my bag for quite a while. The green butterfly was interested in my shoes. I was pretty colorful that day.

In Tucson? Go to Bobo's. Just go. Eat pretty much any breakfast item, especially the apple pancake.

For a more extensive bunch of photos (over 400), check my flickr page.

results from craftyness

Well, here are the photos of the water dish and olive bowl:









Ro was a little afraid of the dish (terrified actually) until I put canned cat food in it. Then she decided to give it a chance. I think it must be the glare.

Also, my lovely man brought me back some cupcakes from Tee & Cakes. I love sweets and last year he brought me back some cupcakes from Georgetown Cupcakes (lovely site), even though he was really sick. He managed to get both sets of cupcakes back on the planes without to much smooshage.

MMMM...
