Vintage China
For several years I’ve enjoyed collecting random pieces of pretty vintage china when I find it at a garage sale or thrift store.

Where Did I Leave Off?
Once upon a time I used to blog… It’s been awhile, I know. I guess you’d like to know about some of the things that have been keeping my life so busy and my schedule filled, wouldn’t you?

Duluth Airport
Waiting for our flight back to Denver from Duluth via Minneapolis. There are a total of 4 gates at this little airport, with 6 flights out today… and not very many people for “people-watching” purposes! Duluth is chilly, damp, and gray in the spring, based on my experience this week.

Minnesota
Layover in Minneapolis on our way to Duluth. If you squint you can see the city way off in the distance. We’ll be setting up for the MACHE conference this afternoon.
