What a lovely weekend! A tv/breakfast day with Tammers and Fat Tuesday with Ry. I think Bloody Marys and Beignets should be considered an essential food group. See how I made them proper nouns? I also started running again. Ry enticed me with a route that brought us to a stunning view of the Olympic Mountains. P.S. My friend Tammers created [...]

Especially when it includes log cabins, veils and English cucumbers, trespassing on sunset views, Humboldt fog, grapefruit chardonnay, ravioli red wine, chile chocolate, player pianos, spiked sweet tea, damn Oprah, Fleetwood mac, thrift shops, ferries, Whidbey Island and the sweetest ladies around.

I really wanted to do our trip back home to Washington justice. So I’ll share lots of pictures over the next few weeks.

We’re headed to the northwest and I am so excited I could break out into song. I hope to see some mountain ranges, crabs, good friends and family, Ethiopian food on my plate daily, coffee, Green lake, a big cold Fat Tire, craftsman houses, and hippies….oh especially the hippies.

As I mentioned before, we spent a few days with the in-laws in St. Augustine, Florida, which happens to be the oldest city in the U. S. We never made it to the Fountain of Youth but we did hang out with some salty old rockers at a local dive bar. I have some serious love [...]

We spent Wednesday afternoon relaxing under this tree. Isn’t it amazing? Ry used the time to study, while I worked on not getting a tan and trying to further my recovery from this wicked sinus infection. Have you ever coughed so hard and frequent that your significant other thought seriously about smothering you with a pillow? Well [...]
