I'M BACK!

Hi Family,

Well, I got back from Oregon and I have to say, if anyone gets a chance to see the Gorge, should because it is so very beautiful. I went with a group of women and two guys and all we do is get up early, get in cars, drive to wherever the good photo opportunities are and pull our gear out and spend hours wandering looking for the right light in which to shoot and what to shoot. The funny thing is, when we get were we are going I always wonder, what the hell am I going to shoot here and within minutes I find hundreds of things to shoot. Then what apeture/sutter speed and iso do I use? I shout that question and David (our fearless leader) comes running with answers. I learned more about photography this trip than ever before. I am really excited about it. Well, enough about that.

Peter and I decided we were not going to get a boat afterall, he and I both were feeling a little overwhelmed by the whole thing. We both felt really good about our decision. Then our broker called to say another slip in Santa Barbara has come on the market and the price was so low, we had no choice but to say "lets go for it". Now we are scrambling to find a boat to put in it because you can't buy the slip without having a boat. Here we go again!!!!!!!!

I have not put aside time for a trip out to Michigan yet but I will take care of that this week. I will let you all know asap.

I head to Phoenix on Friday to meet up with Ingrid and Finny. Ing has hockey games and tournaments so from Friday until Monday late I will get to play, sleep, eat, swim and laugh at Finny. I will let you all know how it goes. I can't wait! Cindy I know how you are feeling with Maya leaving soon but I know you will go see her as often as I try and see Fin. You will make it happen!

I miss everyone and hope to see most of you soon.
Love you all very much, Linda
