oh venezia

you are

color

windows

and laundry drying slowly on the line

 I will miss you

but not your 90 degrees and 95% humidity

the tour

ok lets backtrack.

the last 2 weeks = London, Paris, Venice & Rome

First: Showed the girls around in my London town which of course included 

telephone booths

Portobello Road

& tea 

Next we go to Paris where we

loved the Eiffel tower

explored Versailles 

got lost in the Louvre

& found the middle of the city 

 Venice and Roma will have to get a post all to themselves because the bright California sun is shining and I must go out and enjoy it.

At the rate I'm listening to these boys they'll make it to the top of my 25 most played list in no time.

time out.

Okay hold up for a second.  

Obviously I've been in Europe for the past 2+ months and obviously this has been the best ever
but
posting about running around this continent has got me run up a tree.
I've got at least 4 or 5 almost finished posts spanning the last two weeks of traveling waiting in the queue and my goodness this blog has turned into a laundry list of my goings on over here. 

This is the problem.  

What is this blog supposed to be about anyway?

Me?
Music?
Art?
Traveling?

Well right now I want it to be about crafts.

Know why?

If you don't want to be the craftiest person on earth after you read this I don't know what else to do for you.

I've just discovered her and I've already envisioned myself sitting down at my kitchen table this summer and pumping out project after adorable, practical, actually usable project until school starts in earnest and I'll have to face reality again.

Until then I'm going to stock up on spray paint and hit the thrift stores.

Stay tuned.
