collecting.

this amazing couple: a postman and a librarian who have one of the most amazing contemporary art collections. so impressed with their commitment to the arts.

last thursday i headed out to the west coast for a quick little vacay. you know it's off to a great start when you arrive near midnight and stop off at the first in-n-out you see. more pics of a fantastic trip to follow!

i would like to spend all summer in one of these with AT and lil' lou camping in the backyard telling ghost stories and eating s'mores.  too bad i can't still fit into my sacagawea halloween costume from when i was 10, which to this day i think is my best halloween costume yet  :(
