An account of my whereabouts during my travels !

Tuesday, January 02, 2007

if something in the Deli aisle makes you cry, of course il put my arm around you and walk you outside

as promised here are some pictures from one day when debi and i went boarding. i took this picture after we got off the chair lift, Debis goggles had attracted star shaped snowflakes, so beautiful.

at the top of the hill the view is mesmerizing and absorbing. on this particular day it was clear at the bottom of the hill, snowing in the middle and calm and complacent at the top. up here its hard to comprehend the snow storm which is a few feet below. theres a certain kind of stillness in the air and if i wrote poetry this is where i would go to do it. and after all this description im going to bail and admit its undescribable. at one last attemp il say, its where i go when i close my eyes.

so pleased to see you like the blow, one of my favourite bands. and now that you've been to the states, you know what parentheses are! can't wait to pick your ass up from the airport on the 18th. too bad your better half will still be in the cold... oh, well--steph's and my trip to edinburgh will come sooner than we know. think we could jet over to europe when we come? neither of us have ever been. love, alicia x
