Finally February

Wheee! Finally finished with my February BJP page. This one is called "make me one with everything". I had some Buddha cabs I wanted to incorporate in the piece and kept thinking of that old silly joke about Buddha at the hot dog stand. Well, that's sort of the way I am with the spiritual world, irreverent sometimes, but attentive. Anyway, I'm pleased enough with the page...don't think it's my best work but it reflects the way this year is starting out for me....scattered but happy....
Cheers,

Grand Canyon Trip

My son is home on spring break and wanted to take a quick road trip to the Grand Canyon. We drove 8 hours to Az., got a decent motel room and spent the night, then spent most of the next day exploring the Grand Canyon Rim Trail, then drove 8 hours home! Definitely just a tiny experience of the enormous park, and I think the Park deserves a much longer visit some day. Next time I think I'd choose to go in February, there were already a LOT of people in the park and I tend to like going to such places in off peak times. I had a cold and didn't feel like spending a second night in a motel, and he has work he'd like to get done over the rest of the break. The trip was a bit gruelling, but way fun! Grand Canyon is beautiful! I'd never been there before, and I think I'll plan on going back at some point. We saw a condor! Now, tomorrow, back to beading!

Progress, and some cool beadwork

Well, although I have no beads affixed for either February or March's page yet, the ideas for both are firming up and I am pretty certain I can have them finished by or near the end of March. Meanwhile, if anyone wants to see some neat beadwork and vote for a favorite, the Etsy Beadweaver's Street Team Monthly challenge is up and ready for your votes. I don't have anything in the challenge but I do love a lot of the entries. Check it out here.
Cheers,
