A Year of Being Bicoastal 2007-2008

In an attempt to play catch up, here are some photos from this past year....
1. Christmas in NY 2007 with the family.
2. All we do is eat. Our recent neighborhood favorite is James- check out the food blog I am doing with my sister for more www.theperfectpairing.blogspot.com
3. We go back and forth between NY and DC quite often. We decided to take one of the Chinese buses because they are so cheap - my sister coined the term Chinese Chicken Bus because of all of the reviews she read about how crazy they are. It was not bad, but I prefer the train. Why sit in traffic on a bus on our crumbling interstate system when you can ride a train on our ancient train system where Amtrak has to give priority to freight traffic! Our country is going down the tubes.
4. We went to Easton quite a few times too, including a visit to the Plein Air Festival in July and the Log Canoe Races in August.
5. Our trip to some of the local farms in the Hudson River Valley. Pigs are too cute to eat!
6. Our local hangout is a place called Rope- this is their pet penguin.
7. March - May 2008 Portland. We have so much more appreciation for our home in Portland after a year in New York. I took some time away during negotiations on the sale of Get Fresh including a couple of trips to the beautiful Oregon Coast.
