Holidays 2009/10
















So, it's been a while since I last posted something........well, here goes.

9 days - that's how long I have until I leave the grand ol' US of A to embark once again on a world-wide adventure. As exciting as this time is - looking forward to all the fabulous places I will get to see, and new things I will do, I am also saddened as I think about not being around my family and friends for the next two years. So, with mixed emotions I am attempting to sort through my large collections of stuff, and pack. But, being such a wonderful procrastinator, I haven't actually packed anything, it is just all laying around in my room. Actually......on second thought, I take that back; I DID pack - 1/2 of one of my bags, but then unpacked it so I could use it to go to West VA, and New Jersey.

Trying to get all the traveling in to see as many folks as possible. Spent a relaxing weekend in West Va, where there was some beautiful snow. Then, went to New Jersey and spent a fun-filled New years weekend with a fantastically fun group of friends. I never, ever had any desire to go see NYC, so I went; in the frigid cold. And had a FANTASTIC time!
Well, enough of typing, so here are some pictures to look at. They're more interesting than reading, anyway.
