Texas Home

We made it home (Texas Home) safely and it was good to be back in my other room........Sammi was great and slept most of the trip.......I know there are warnings about traveling in Mexico.......but we didn't see any problems and Sammi doesn't seem to like being woken up at the check points.......so her behavior caused them to just let us go on......something about uniforms and machine guns upset her....yea Sammi!

Made it home just in time for our daughter's 25th Birthday! Happy B-Day My Bug!

May I introduce my new Grand puppy.............Miss Penny Lane! Thank you for keeping the golden tradition Miss Bug!

Twisted Guerrilla

The wind has been howling for the last 2 days.......great for all the kite boarders......not so great for non knitted (K)nit Up......it is a twisted piece of art.....it works for me!

So yesterday when SD was leaving for work........someone was walking off with the (K)nit Up! Surfer Dude(sorry I had to say it) to the rescue! He explained what it was (in his broken Spanish) and it was returned to it's original home. Viva la Guerrilla and SD!

Adios

Global Guerrilla (K)nit Up

Here are some still pics until I can figure out what is wrong with my video.........Thank you

3rd Eye Muse for the heads up on my private setting for the video.

SD had to rescue the project already this morning.........apparently he was right about people believing it is a shrine for the recently departed.......more on that story later.

The Guerrilla Is Out There In The Blue

With some help from Sammi Dog and SD(hubby hates for me to call him surfer dude)I was courageous enough to hang my (K)nit Up out on the seawall......I really want to see people's reaction to it...which I can from my balcony.
SD watched for awhile yesterday while playing with Sammi in the pool......he believes passersby think it is a shrine.....(meaning someone passed away) ....something that is common to see here in Mexico......I will keep watching.

I really want to Thank grrl+dog for pushing us all to get our art out there and the wonderful opportunity to meet so many awesome and brave artists.

Guerrilla Art

What amazing opportunities you can find on blogs to stir up the creative juices..........I really had to step out of my comfort zone today to join in the Global Guerrilla (K) nit up. I do know how to knit.........one way........so if it's not a scarf..oh well. OK........I only cast on........couldn't figure out how to knit with that crooked stick! I did play with some beading, tulle, handmade paper, sea glass and felting...........I really stepped out.

This afternoon I will find the tree that needs a little art......... I want it close so I can see how the folks in my pueblito take to guerrilla art. Or better yet......hang it from my seawall....so the beach goers can enjoy.
I will post another pic when it is out there.........

Adios

Play Time Again

I worked again today........or a better word for it..........Played!

Adios

Work or Play

It's been a busy day! I love getting lost in the Zone..........did I talk to anyone on the phone........fold the laundry?.......pure and perfect pleasure!

Disintegration

Disintegration Collaboration

I have joined this collaboration in hopes my paper will succumb to the elements here in Mexico........land of no snow and continuous sunshine......
I wrapped the scroll in twine and inserted it into copper tubing, coiled it with a piece of rebar and laid it on a rusty piece of speaker I found on one of my beach walks. It will rest on my patio next to all my other beach treasures that are kept in a coconut concha until May 1st. I love surprises!

The scroll contains a prayer that I say over and over and won't let go........
So maybe disintegration will be my way of letting go......

Adios
