Not a momentous week, but like most of our weeks, filled with the lovely variety of things that make our lives…here’s what I’ve been up to: Check this out people…every Tuesday in May conservationist Tom Fuller will be working on the Hallie Ford Museum of Art’s native basket collection in the lobby so you can […]

MY LIFE SO FAR
I published this on my birthday in 2009-13, took a year off last year, but I still think it tells the first part of my story, and I love the old photos of the little me… Today is my birthday and I’ve attained a certain age. I have plans, things to do, places to go. […]
Happy Birthday Emma!
Our niece Emma turns 18 today…she is smart, talented (writer, runner, editor) and beautiful. I’m pretty sure she would murder me if I put a current picture of her on this blog, so here are a couple of “historic” Emma views…Happy Birthday Em from your Auntie and Uncle…over here at the beach…we love you!
A museum weekend…
It was a museum weekend for our house…I’m sure you’ve seen the new banner installed on the west side of the Hallie Ford Museum of Art… and Saturday our family came down to see the show…Bruce and LeeAnn from Seattle, Doug, Marie, Emma and Finley from Portland, and Z & A. …and then home for […]
“Honesty Lunaria: How One Thing Leads to Another”
We were outside doing a bit of fall garden clean-up today and I found a stalk of money plant I had yanked out in the summer and put aside to deal …and then forgot all about it. A little bouquet is always nice, so I started removing the seed pod coverings…before you remove the coverings […]
TOO MUCH FUN…
So Friday we headed out to the beach through the fog and rain… …luckily I’ve discovered I can sew while Roger drives…(this is not quite as bad as when I just nap, but it keeps me pretty quiet…) and Friday night we went to a sort-of-strange-but-ultimately-hilarious ukulele concert by an Italian guy who calls himself […]
Happy Birthday Zach!
A busy week ahead about which more later, but it starts with one of my MOST favorite holidays of all…Zachary Hull’s birthday…and he was born on an overcast Sunday back in the 70’s…this year a backyard feast is in store on the actual day…and on he goes into another year. xo
The Wedding
I did the kindest thing yesterday by posting one single picture of the bride and groom… and you may let it go at that…BUT…if you want to know what went on, and see some of the work, fun and love that went into the moment…read on… On Friday the flowers were duly cut and transported […]
The Wedding Countdown…Two More Days…
This is probably the last pre-wedding post I’ll make…tomorrow, “one more day,” will involve us getting up early to cut dahlias at Sharon’s, zooming to Portland, the rehearsal and dinner, etc….I guess I’ll make one more big wedding post AFTER the fact…and then it will be back to “On The Way” as you know it […]
Wedding Countdown…3 more days…
As the wedding nears I’m abandoning all thoughts of keeping my usual blog on an even keel, and moving straight to “Zach and Ashton: The Teenage Years.” Well, they were both beautiful teenagers…ladies first: here’s Ashton at 15… and here at 17 with her Mom Cheryl… Zach at about 15… and at 17…with David B….
