where have all the bloggers gone... long time passing.
happy new year! here's a down-n-dirty for the last few weeks of laziness.
so after christmas, i went up to hanford to visit. cory and annie were in town and i hadn't seen them in about a year. it was nice to spend a little time with them, perhaps mom and dad can produce evidence that i was there, as i only managed to snap this picture of my favorite christmas lights in hanford. (they're on 43 between grangeville and fargo) it's just one single star, but it is entirely black around it, so it is particularly bright. (find your own metaphor... now)
the week was uneventful, we did see the movie "juno" which was a darling little film about teenage pregnancy, awkwardness, and the perils of adoption. very good, well written, not for you if your slang dictionary is not up to date (sorry mom, i still love you)
Then saturday we went to LACMA, and the La Brea Tarpits. we had a nice time, but it seems like every museum i go to is being renovated while i'm there. they had a dali exhibit, but it was sold out!!? how can that happen? its a museum! so we saw the rest of it and were satisfied.
(a timely reminder of the dangers of tigers-from 18th century india)meg had never been to the tarpits and was disappointed that they looked distinctly like small ponds. i think she was anticipating more black tarry goodness. but it was fun.
i hadn't been in ages, and remembered very little except the painting of the wolves and the wall of skulls. it was a decent little side trip. this bear looked out over the parking lot.

No offense taken, my sense of security and mental well-being does not rest on each slang catch phrase or word that is uttered in the universe.
I like the pictures! I think you were around 7 when we were at LaBrea.
