A day off



Ahhh...I spent some much needed time yesterday to zone out and take a drive while in Seattle. I enjoyed the festive food samples and atmosphere at my favorite Whole Foods in the U District, then I trolled the local book store magazine rack for a few yummy items. I ended up with many of the mags I buy fairly regulary, with the addition of Curve which turned out to be quite a lovely read. Venuszine, Bust, Adorn and Cloth-Paper-Scissors are the volumes that usually find themselves under my arm when I head for the checkout....so I posed the question to myself, Why don't I just subscribe?? Then I realized that it is the ritual of surfing through everything on the rack with a hot coffee in hand that I cherish most of all, how could I give that up for the convienence of having them delivered to my front door??

"Under the Surface", the piece above, will be traveling across the mountains with me in three days to visit it's lovely foster home, Hopfengarten Gallery. Maybe someone will give it a real home some day.
