Hometown Journeys. Labor of Love.

Label by Mary Ann Moss

I sent my travel journal to Sketchbook Project today. This is the cover. You can see the inside pages on the side and on Flickr. I'm really happy with it and hate to see it go forever. It will be part of the Sketchbook Project library that travels around the country for a year, then it will go into their permanent library in Brooklyn. Someday I will travel there and spend the day looking at dozens of sketchbooks. Meanwhile, i enjoy looking at some on their web site where they digitize them. I was an unhappy camper with my digital version. They took on more than they can chew and needed to make deadline, but they only scanned in one side of the book and skipped the cover entirely. 

My entry for the 2013 Sketchbook Project....had to work doubletime to complete it. I missed last year's deadline so really wanted to make this one!

Foggy Nights in Bellevue Town

We have had a week of the coolest fog. I speak both figuratively and  literally. Very nippy here with fog days and nights.

 I took a walk in it this evening, in the dark, all bundled up, and it was magnificent. Listened to Andrea Boccelli serenade me in Italian and it was all very sublime. That's the moon there!

This picture of our front yard is from last night. Tonight I can't even see the the lightpost. Spooky, huh?  BAD to drive in, but in the warmth of home, I am lovin' it. All we need is Doris Day whistling in the dark.
