San Francisco, California

the smell of the sea in your head
everything is built upon itself

I can't wait to go back and play some more.
Until next time, I will see you soon.

wyoming? WHY NOT?
Wyoming,
Jackson Hole
driving...
hours in a car
packed to the max
with a crew of fabulous and fun folks
we get lost in IDAHO, yikes! it's easy to get lost when there's absolutely nothing around to regain your compass
sleeping, singing, peeing, fueling, laughing, chatting, eating, picturing, etc.
J-Hole!!!! wahoo!!
this town's awesome
iditarod sled dog race starting line
tour of the town
BBQ for din din, best ever!
ski resort tour
watched the time trials of the sled races
headed to Obro's ranch
bunking in a cabin
cosy with the crew, movie time
oatmeal breakfast
snowmobile adventures for the activity
blazing trails and getting stuck
Obro to the rescue!
pics and snowballs
gear swap to keep warm
chili lunch with real elk meat in there, yummy!
let's make a fire!
get the wood, fire, gas and we were off to set stuff on fire! 'nough said.
find the perfect spot
fire is a blazing
hills to conquer
snow fights ensued
memories made
great burger dinner at a hole in the wall
pics on a huge jack rabbit
crash for the night
jedidiah's for breakfast and off through the blizzard we went
slow as we go
traction is a most for speed
snow is not the best for that
so fun!
why not
thanks for the fun times friends

Wicked in Hollywood
at the Pantagas(sp?) if you arrive a few hours prior to a show there is a lottery line that forms
everyone in line enters their name in hopes to win discount tickets to the next performance
we entered our names
when we came back a few hours later to watch them pick the lucky winners we realized that there had been about 200+ people that entered to win
13 drawings were made
two families entered and fortunately two people from each of those families names were drawn, which meant the entire family got in. Wahoo!!!
the last name was drawn and CK was all excited. i was already clapping and yelling for joy for the winner when i felt a nudge and heard that my name was the name called.
what? I won? woot!
two $25.00 tickets were mine to claim
front row and fantastic
what a show, building, cast and fun experience!
i'd see that show a 100 more times if i could.
must see play

Oregon
Portland and Lake Oswego
fantastic public transit
Saturday market
clouds that never stop
the more amazingly interesting people
culture everywhere
amazing music
ocean at your fingertips
what a place
so far it wins the prize for my favorite
the Price is Right and Ellen D.
the Price is Right and Ellen D.
The process is long and interesting
people watching is a blast
lines form and reform
after hours and hours pass you finally get to enter the tiny room that is the set of the Price is Right
if you're in groups you are strategically positioned throughout the room
my "group" the Drew Crew was placed in the front row
the party wasn't started until the music began and to get warm in the freezing room the Drew Crew started dancing like there was no tomorrow.
after a few minutes others caught on and decided they wanted to have fun too and joined the party
inspiration hit and the wave was a must
i ran to one side of the room and as the 300+ audience members became aware of me the followed my lead in doing the wave. Wahoo!
that lasted an entire song and then there was more dancing
the show soon there after began
the announcer came out and instructed us on how things worked
Mr. Drew Carey came out and chatted with the crowd for a while... what an awesome man.
he did a shout out to the Drew Crew and thanked us for our enthusiasm
the perfect contestants were chosen and we were all ecstatic about those who were chosen. they all deserved to be on stage. Go Linda! what a sweetheart.
Linda didn't win but ended up with some fantastic prices.
after the show we were off to the Ellen show for the 6:00pm taping
they told us it would air on December 10th 2007 but it actually aired November 19th 2007 the same day that the Ellen taping did.
what fun! Ellen was a blast nothing but dance party and laughter
backstreet boys were the musical guest and Christina Applegate was the guest.
fun stuff
