2005
As the year rolls to a close I thought I would
attempt to create an end of the year recap.
This past
winter I redesigned my website and learned enough html
and Dreamweaver 101 to get myself on the road.
The new website
was uploaded in January 2005, and it is
a work in progress and a workshop in patience.
This year brought in additional cover illustrations for
O'Reillys' Missing Manuals series
...
a few design projects,
and some new illustrated ecards
I hope to have uploaded before the year is over
.
Unpacking the year it was (not a suprise) alot about music,
a number
of concerts at The Rogue Theater this year stand out,
JackieGreene, Dickie
Betts, John Hammond -an amazing experience!
AND
Allison Scull & Victor
Martin
(who opened for John Hammond)...fantastic!
April 2005 | The
Wailers concert at the Ashland Armory
June...
Maggie & I house and doggiesat The Byrdhouse
South
while Jamie was at The Kerrville Folk Festival making music.
Going back to San Francisco and the old neighborhood was fun...
I saw old friends and some baseball,
...but theres no place like home.
My
summer 2005
....a total of 17 fantastic concerts volunteering at The Britt.
I sold 2900 raffletickets and had a GREAT time meeting the most incredible
folks
while enjoying the most amazing music!
Thank
you sooo much Teddi, Janna, Donna, Ron and Marsha

There
were many memorable floats down the Rogue River this past summer.
Dodging jetboats, spotting deer, bald eagles
and elk grazing along the
riverbanks.
In

Spirit
of the Rogue Art Exhibit 2005
at The Firehouse Gallery

Voorhies came up in August to put in some new kitchen doors
(and play a little golf). It was quite the process and the results- simply
spectacular.
