For the rest of the photos (and locations

Holy wow! I’d love to visit those places!! Do you have locations for them, too? Super sweet!

Ah! You caught me
. I was being lazy and didn’t include the locations (lazy? more like exhausted…I just got back from a weekend away full of camping and cooking and concerts and playing with youth kids–yes, I have a rad job–and let me tell you–I am NOT as young as I imagine I am). However, if you click on the links that say “go here and here” you’ll be able to see the locations.

I would really love to just spend an entire day perusing through a bookstore, library, or any other place where a person sits behind the counter and frequently uses the phrase “SHHHHHHHHhhhhh……” in all its sacredness. In fact – I would like that job
. These pictures are tempting me into a career change.
I had a great weekend hanging out with family and sleeping in, and watching movies. Good times. Shhhhhhhh……

Margo, you made me laugh. That can be your contribution to world peace: “Shhhhh…” I love it
. Also, I decided I would like to walk through these with a latte in hand. So inevitably our conversation would sound like this: “Sluuuuuurrrrrp.” “Shhhhh….” “Sluuuurrrrrp.” “Shhhh…”
