One year ago today, my wife and I were on the last day of a 6-day stay in Ashland, Oregon. I started up a blog to write about it last January, but only just finished it a few days ago. Yeesh!
For those who care to check it out, go here.
Some of the highlights included my wife getting frisked, staying in a hotel straight out of the 1920's, and being asleep as 2008 turned to '09. A Brit who read the account called me "garrulous", a word I had to look up as I didn't know the meaning of it.
Wishing you all the best for '10!!

Happy new year Thomas
Given to excessive and often trivial or rambling talk; tiresomely talkative... I had to look it up myself.
Happy New Year!
Okay, so I didn't read every word but I skimmed over your story. Interesting and funny (especially the part about laughing a fraction of a second before everyone else)!
Once, I was at a restaurant with my family and this woman walked by then stopped suddenly, turned around, walked over to me, touched my arm and said, "You are a beautiful woman and your children are beautiful too, I just had to tell you that." and then she put her hands together, bowed, and walked away. Then my husband smirked and said, "Well, I guess that made your day." (it did) HAHA! She was probably at that retreat with you.
Thanks, Rocket.
Dave, I am not even remotely garrulous in real life. Quite the opposite, actually.
Dawn, thanks for checking out what I wrote. It's amazing how impactful one's words can have on another. Such power we have to turn someone's bad day into a grand one.
Happy New Year Tommy!! You look different...maybe it's the angle of your face? The bright reflection of the mirror??
Okay ... I admit it ... I have to look it up! :)
I'm off to read your account! :) Happy New Year!

Thanks, Mags! Great to see you. My face may look a bit different because it's a reverse image (since it was taken in the mirror). Or maybe I was just blissed out.
Small, thanks for stopping by and for checking my adventure in Oregon out. Looking forward to new posts from you later this month!
nice pic!
a very happy and healthy 2010 tomsy...:)
