I used to be Snow White... but then I drifted.

Good morning - we're back from a quick weekend of skiing in Snowshoe Mtn... did quite a few good (and successful) runs down the slopes @ Snowshoe on Saturday and again Sunday morning!  No parts left behind... So - some bills - year-end tax work - and piano today (did someone say it might snow?) - Anyway - happy monday morning - just wanted to say hello. E.

Favorites from Artscape Baltimore

Hit the Artscape event in Balt. on Sunday. It's really more of a large open air flea market and food court than an "artscape". Maybe they should re-think the name. Not that there wasn't original and interesting work to be seen - but it was few and it was far between. And it was damn hot that day. Some of my favorites: > Queen of Sheba Trading Company Her ideas of "Jewelry for Lunch" and her LiAni (TM) Shawls were fantastic as was her personality. > Squidfire Great t-shirt designs - this is a weak spot for me. I have quite of few of these folks designs that I've purchased over the last 2 - 3 years. Below - I found some other designers that had great stuff. > Sharp Shirter T-shirt and laptop skin designs.

Louisiana and Texas...

I hadn't been here in 30 years.

We were out on the lake with my Uncle Max.

We have caught up with and met family and re-met family.

We have eaten ourselves full and picked up new recipes -

And we have come into: family members, favorite histories, tips and tricks and e-mail addresses.

As well as promises not to wait another 30 years.

Now we're at the airport - waiting for our plane home.

Important airport security messages slide across a Huey Lewis ditty.

Mom is sitting beside me tucked into a romance novel.

A very loud lady is sitting across from me calling someone to keep them informed, "I am at the airport -- eatin' Pringles -- yeh, they sell them in small snack packs now -- huh? -- sour cream and onion ..." This is why the cellphone was invented: to give everyone the grocery list of your daily life.

Travel exposes me.

We had a fantastic time - but no matter how good a trip is - always,
I am ready for my home...

Back from West Coast...

Feel a little less like this today - but now the weather's turned! 

Skiing... Something New is Old Again

Well - I've been talked into a trip to a day of skiing. Stay tuned...
