Vespa Chicks!

I FINALLY got a few videos up on blip.
This isn't my BEST story, but a fun one!  I also added some others, if you're bored.

Ha Ha... Real Funny!

New York is such a comedian!
It's hard to tell by this bad cell phone picture, but that's snow!
Oh ya - did I mention it's the first day of spring?

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

Trip to Toronto

PDX2NYC assisted me on this trip in exchange for a ticket and hotel.  (good deal!)  With only one interview, we rented a car and played tourist for the day.  Niagara Falls is stunning even in winter.  
The ice formations from the spray were each a piece of art.
And check out the darling gloves she found!  I can't wait to see her wear those on the subway or the vespa!

They grow them big here!
