Italy take one

well its the first step towards going on my trip with mom this summer (italy with her) (then switzerland and germany by myself). i picked up the application at the post office, tracked down my old passport from the back of the closet, went to kinkos, got the silly photos taken and its ready to go once i write the check and pop it in the mail. and yes if you're wondering, thats rogue i'm wearing!

cathi was nice enough to take a photo for me at the knit together at her house last friday night, i finished it there (and got a few dirty looks in the process) well maybe they weren't but there was definately some fo envy in the air :)

Hey Lesley -- it was great seeing you and SO great seeing the FO of Rogue! You have to post a photo, with hood up, here! :) Sorry I didn't get a chance to talk to you more ... the next time around, I need to sit in your neighborhood of the room to chat. Tell Shirley the same from me! Nice job again on Rogue.

so much to do!

with only a few days to relax. a trip to the beach turns into a blur of "i just want to sit here" mixed with "but we have to do this too" so several days worth of photos divided into day parts. cause really it is all running together :) think sandra bullock from that movie premonition where the days are out of order...but nobody's gonna die. sunrise: over the ocean. after waking up early not feeling well from a late night out with the family. i took one for the team ad finished the wine...don't do that. not good. i ran the 2 blocks to the boardwalk and over the dunes to the water to get these couple of shots. seagulls and beachcombers are your only company when it's this early! i've never seen so many mussel shells when it wasn't after dinner. midday: on the boardwalk. after the beach you go to the boardwalk to grab lunch at mack and mancos. apparently the best pizza ever. i'm not convinced. but heck i don't really get the wa...
