Great post, fabulous pics and wonderful memories. May the New Year bring much happiness to you and yours, Kristin.
Thank you Catherine! And may you have a wonderful New Year too.
I love the “Jilo and me photo” it is a classic. Takes me back to my days at college. Now I know where you got the silk screen bug; from the hippy days. I too have a picture of me with an Afro and wild looking clothes. Those were the days.
Thank You.

Yes they were and how did they go by so fast? I even have a picture of me on a silk screening day http://findingeliza.com/archives/4275
