Headin to Edmonton

These gals are on their way to a cute lil' boutique hair salon called Ponytails and Horseshoes. They carry a few different local designers as well as Toms shoes. They have had my earrings in the salon for over a year now and were happy to keep them in even though I was moving away-- which I think is top-notch! So now I send them new stock every month or so......

Check em' out!

SPRING! in Revelstoke

Flowers already up in our yard. This means a lot to an Alberta girl in March (ya,ya it's April now but they were up last week).
I do not miss Edmonton winters in the least. I can't believe I didn't get out of there sooner....really.

Do not stand at my grave and weep

Do not stand at my grave and weep,

I am not there, I do not sleep.

I am in a thousand winds that blow,

I am the softly falling snow.

I am the gentle showers of rain,

I am the fields of ripening grain.

I am in the morning hush,

I am in the graceful rush

Of beautiful birds in circling flight,

I am the starshine of the night.

I am in the flowers that bloom,

I am in a quiet room.

I am in the birds that sing,

I am in each lovely thing.

Do not stand at my grave bereft

I am not there. I have not left.

Earrings at Sangha Bean

These feathery-gals made their way down to a local coffee shop here in Revelstoke called Sangha Bean. It's a great little fairtrade organic coffee and tea house located right downtown. It is a great place for local artists to display and sell their handmade stuff. I like that Sangha Bean also does not offer disposable cups for their drinks, if one wants a coffee to go and has not brought their own cup then they are asked for a one dollar deposit for a Mason Jar. That way on their next visit on returning the jar they get their buck back. It's a great little system I'd say.

Here's a link to an article from the Revelstoke Times on the Sangha Bean:

Our New Home

Well I have finally made the leap outta good ol' faithful Edmonton. On to the moist mountainous air of Revelstoke. It's fresh here and I like it.

This is our snowy abode and me and Newt down by the Columbia River.....Geez it's been quite sometime since my last blog entry. Shame on me. I promise to be better and I will.

....and more earrings to choose from.
