Oh for the lack of blogging!

ARG!  It has been almost one month since my last entry....my apologies!  I don't have any excuses other than being busy....

Sean and I started Firefly again - every once in a while we like to restart or re-watch a series that we love, and a couple times a year will watch Firefly.  If you've never seen it I highly recommend it - awesomely funny western-meets-space-travel written into existence by the ever-witty Joss Whedon.  It's not a long series, unfortunately - but not for lack of talented crew or skilled actors and great writing - it was pre-empted during it's first several shows for BASEBALL coverage.  arg. Nevertheless, it's a great show and worthy of checking out.  ;)  

I babble, mostly because I have no real news or anything of consequence to write about.  babblebabblebabble.  I had a job interview today.  I posted pictures for my project 365.

Please go look if you have the inclination to....  I've been taking care of Sean while he's been sick.  I will go until I have something more interesting to write.  ;P  Take care, my dear friends!  ;D

What a start!

What a great first day for my project 365....a trip to the Biltmore Mansion!  Nevermind that I was sicker than a dog (didn't get to surprise my NC friend....)  :(  

Nevertheless, we had a beautiful day and got some cool shots to share with y'all (oh, see now - that Southern talk is rubbin off on me....)  ;)  Here are some shots from our day today.

We weren't allowed to take pictures inside, but a braver me would have anyway.  There were, however, workers EVERYWHERE, so I didn't chance it.  Maybe next time....  ;)

This was the initial view of the mansion from the trail that we took.  Beauty, eh?

Sean and I....  ;D

My father-in-law Harvey

One of many cool fountains on the grounds, an area so vast they measure it in square miles, not acres....yeesh!

Lovely trees....

This sucker's huge!  It wouldn't all fit in there....  Beautiful details everywhere you look....

One of many gargoyles, which are *NOT* evil, by the way....they were meant to ward off evil.

We thought this lion looked like Honey.  And this is the view of Honey that I get to have every morning as she stands over me on the bed just staring at me....time to get up Mommy!  Except that she has huge golden retriever ears dangling down....and no mane....hmmm....

For those of you that have seen Private Eyes (kudos to you!), it was filmed at the Biltmore Mansion.  Here is the tunnel that several of the characters drive through at various times before ending up in a lake down the road (which is really elsewhere....sorry to disappoint....)

Sean got the biggest kick out of the name for this park, and the park after it - Melten Hill.  Sooo....he took a picture for us to treasure always.  ;)  I love it!
