Back from California!


And, I'm so glad to be back!

I journeyed to San Diego County last Monday with my guy, Ray, for a road trip to see my sister on her farm there. The drive was long and fun. By the time we reached Southern California, the network of freeways and masses of traffic reminded me again how much I love my life here in Bisbee.

Nonetheless, we had a great time! Side trips each day to places like Julian and Fallbrook, Pacific Beach (and more). Eating home grown organic basil, heirloom tomatoes and drinking wine. Yummy! I even came home with a car! My sister sold me her '90 BMW for a small price and now I have something smaller and more economical to drive around here (when I drive).

New news...Our dear friend Lina has started a new blog that you just HAVE to check out and add to your required daily blog reading list. Click the link that is her name and have a look see.

    Ok, I left her another message on her site to ask if she'll change her settings. I see what you mean, since I tried signing on anonymously and could not select any of the drop down menus that would apply.

    What's up with that???

My Daughter Visits Bisbee!!!

Image
Good morning Bisbee! It looks like it's going to be yet another beautiful day here in Tiny Town (I didn't coin the term...I have our friend Juliette Beaumont, the bartender at Elmo's to thank).  I've got the wonderful "hurry up & wait" task of needing to wait for a visit from the cable company to deal with the inconsistent internet connection I have. But, the next few hours are mine alone. Nice. Meanwhile, I'm looking forward to picking up my lovely daughter, Mira, at the airport in Tucson this evening and having her here in Bisbee for a week! I moved here last June on the same day she left for her travels in India, Cambodia and Thailand this past summer. She's a world traveler, and it will be very cool to show her my new home. I'm hoping to introduce her to as many of my new Bisbee friends as possible. We'll be seeing you around...

Emily Decks Out for the Sandman Show at Elmo's

Image
Yesterday afternoon a bunch of us went down to St. Elmo's in Brewery Gulch to hear our friend Sandman perform his unique blend of Cowboy Rap and Poetry (you've got to hear it to understand - check out his website ).  One of our own - Emily - was sporting quite the amazing outfit...which used to belong to Sammy Davis, Jr.! She says a friend of hers back in New Jersey passed it along to her after a photo shoot with said Sammy.  Now, I think that's just way cool!
