A Week From Tomorrow


A week from tomorrow, I am leaving for a place that I’ve never been to.  Here’s a hint:

If you guessed San Francisco, you’re right!  If you guessed something else, you may or may not be foreign.

My sister-in-law Claudia, who lives in SF, is graduating from grad school, and my in-laws are taking Eric and I out there to celebrate.  Why am I telling you this?  I want to give you an excuse for the less than amazing posts lately.  I’ve got some stuff to do around the house before I leave, and let’s be honest…it’s sort of hard to focus on art when I’m looking forward to this trip!  I’ve never been to CA or even the western side of the country.

I am hoping to gather some inspiration for my summer body of work.  We’re going to be in Yosemite for a few days, so I’m sure I can gather some inspiration there!

    I’m happy that you get to go on this trip, but very sad we will miss seeing you when we come up.

    It always amazes me that me with my good span of years of experience gets to be outdone by each of my kids. But maybe that’s the way it’s supposed to be….the parents go so far and extend that to their children as a springboard to go even farther….it works in talents, abilities, hopefully in faith/spirituality, education…
