Home for Christmas !


We did it ! what were we thinking of ! we drove 2010 miles for thanksgiving, through rain storms and the three largest cities in the USA to spend a wonderful few days in Boston Mass. with our old friend Lynn and her extended family of fourteen. My what an epic trip to get there and have turkey! It was so enormous Mike found inventive ways to cook the left overs shepherds pie with turkey, turkey curry and rice ............. We are hoping that christmas in St Ursula will not be turkey ! We are not sure we would do that drive again highway 95 is not pretty enough and speed limits really curtail time, but we did enjoy the sense of a place travelled by road and are planning a road trip to Nashville when we come back in the spring.
Christmas spirit has struck, jingle bells , the salvation army jangling outside every shop , Savannah wreaths are everywhere it feels strange to see when temperatures are still in the high 60's. Our house is packed up, days of cleaning and clearing for rentals while we are away, home for Christmas to see friends and getting ready for the next adventure. I am very excited about working back at the University for a couple of days on an installation of sorts in the Eldon Gallery, a collaboration with Sarah Turner about being here and over there and back again. We have fun in mind. Soooooo Christmas Greetings to everyone and Happy New Year and reporting out until news from Lacoste in January 2012.
