just got back home this AM... and now i'm waiting for my other half to arrive here tonight... OFFICIALLY, she's moving here today directly from new york! so, you californians, please join me to give susie a huge, balmy welcome to california... she's going to need it for a while as she adjusts her life to this new environment soon. it's going to be a nice, long chapter for us as i have some wonderful spots show her in this nature-friendly state. susie, the always ever eco-conscious environmentalist, will snug nicely here...

anyway, a couple of days ago, susie and i had a nice wedding portraits taken by our friend, tate tullier. the shoot went pretty well, but i have to say that the highlight of that day was susie got a glamourous makeover and i was still in awe of her beautiful face. it was like she had aged 10 years later after the makeup and i think it's a positive way because she is somewhat sick of how peepos tell her that she looks sooooo young and fresh for her age...

ok, off to take a power nap!...
