peter lyon, henry lyon, and mary dwan came to visit for a few days on their way back from california. these pictures are from loch raven.

they were the best houseguests.

finally got film processed and finally have a scanner. crappy prints+crappy scanner=ok with me.

all of our pets are dying.

found at cultural center light rail stop.

i envy this person's authority. i hope to be more bossy in 2010 (yes i treat every day like it's the first day of the current year. new new year's resolutions all the time.)

thanks to marlo for being thoughtful enough to grab my camera and take these photos. valeska held a potluck and "graduation ceremony" for us at her house on the last day of school. i am going to miss that class so very much.
