Where am I?
I have moved back to the Pacific Northwest to be with family and friends for awhile. This is the small town of Langley which is located on Whidbey Island in the State of Washington. The population of Langley is about 1000; this is small town at it’s best!
Winter is here; today it was 18 degrees. I understand that it is cooling down in Las Vegas and snowing in Arizona and New Mexico.
Here is my new puppy Sam; a boxer, black lab and bulldog mix. I had to put down my last dog, Bailey, about a year ago and Sam is turning into a very good friend. Having a puppy is all about child proofing your home; I guess my memory is short since it’s not a lot of fun.
Here is a photo of the studio where I live.
This is the main building on the 8 acre site that my friend Ron Kasprisin has developed. He also has a small vineyard called Kasprisin Ridge which is very young; only 15 gallons of wine this year.
Ron is building another cottage that he plans on renting as an artist’s studio. I wrote a post on my new blog site that talks about Ron and his watercolor work. Click here for the link to the article and my new blog site. The link to the main blog, Whidbey Island Life, is here.
I have to tell you that I do miss Vegas. My blogs showed a side of the city that many people don’t really appreciate.
I have put together a slide show that gives you a better idea of what Whidbey Island is all about.
If you click here you can view it.
I plan on being back in Vegas in a year or so; wishing you all a Merry Christmas and great Holiday Season!
