Wow.. it's been a very strange week...
and there is the very pronounced feeling of change in the air.

But I am finally starting to feel a bit better from my flare... and am working up to a couple hours of energy a day... which is good.
So.... I have been trying to work on things a bit at a time.

And hey... it's the weekend... which means I have some links to share with you all:
*artist Mariko Kusumoto
*this is awesome
*we have a new flag!... and it's cool.
*a great information source on the business side of art
*artist Kurt Pio
*wanna live here?
*fashion and Native American culture
*photographer Louise Lakier

and then I got to looking at rural economics in relation to art business. ..
--and I found this awesome bit
--and this incredible story
--and a group of artists that are doing this in SanFran (and here is a video on it) (and here is the website)

and then some interesting things...
*how to grow an avocado from the pit
*how to tell the differences between Poison Oak, Poison Ivy and Poison Sumac
*neat places to go in PA
**and I'll leave you with this guy... what a great idea.... and what a wonderful service.

Hope you all have a great weekend... and I'll see you back here on Monday.
