a belated farewell.



Here are the last few months of 2010! These months I was in the full swing of driving around! In October I was in WA, OR, and CA. I got stuck on the beach in Long Beach, WA, traipsed around the giant pines in the redwood forest, made a print series at my old college, and fell in love with Tacoma, WA. I visited a bunch of friends on the west coast, including some bloggers!



I went so far in November! Hung out at Lake Mead and drove a boat around the lake, visited the Grand Canyon and Zion National Park, the Meteor Crater near Winslow Arizona, saw Elsie and Emma at Red Velvet in Missouri, Starr in Little Rock, Kaelah in Tennessee, made it to the Atlantic ocean, and so much more.

December found me back over on the west side of the country. I stopped by Salvation Mountain and Slab City, which were so magical. After missing them on the way down the west coast, I finally got to visit Erin from Calivintage in San Francisco, and Chelsea from Seablanket up in Oregon! I moved into a new apartment in Tacoma and then closed out 2010 back home in Alaska for Christmas and New Years.

A year ago I saw someone posting about Pacific Northwest Aleut Council culture camp and I was super bummed I’d missed it, but also very excited that I’d discovered that there was a culture camp close to me. Fast forward to this past week
Finally gave our free food pantry the mural she deserves! I always planned on giving it a paint upgrade but, as per usual, it took me at least a year 👀 Next up on the mural plan is our retaining wall, but we’ll see if I can squeeze that in be
Got to enjoy the In The Spirit Contemporary Native Art festival yesterday, there are always such great artists vending and performing— Jack and I were able to make it for the Alaska Kuteeyaa dancers’ performance! My piece is up at the art
