Ooh! For some reason I feel you would excel at writing ad jingles! As I read your little Steemit ad, I had visions of steaming the wrinkles out of laundry with a big dopey smile on my feeling-good face. You're a natural!

My nephew, whom is a whole 6 years younger than I, lives a rather cosmopolitan existence. He is also a bio-chemist. He spends his weekends hiking rock formations and playing beach volleyball with beautiful people. I have never traveled anywhere solo before, and for both our birthdays we decided that we needed to spend some time together enjoying our love of creative pursuits. So I am sure there will be lots of photography, painting sessions, and best of all random weirdness! Can you tell I am looking forward to jettisoning my busy schedule and enjoying 6 days of escape?

Anyone who writes as wonderfully as you do works extremely hard! Although, I had to ponder your "off the streets" comment? I know you have a nose for spotting abandoned Christmas ornamentation, and that seems like a cool street hitting side-effect, but now I am a tad curious as to what sort of mischief your writing and photography keeps your from getting into?

Hope you are having a splendid day!!!!
