coming back

Well everyone who is reading....
We are still coming back to good old Canada..... It looks though that we are only coming back for 1 month. In that time the kids have told me that one of the things that they want to do is the West Coast Trail.... Go figure..... I think that it could still be arranged. We all love the great out doors. I have to say that almost a year of thinking of coming back, and talking myself into it. I will enjoy being with my own culture. Living in a culture that can welllllll be only explained as almost opposite to what I am used to, or raised in will be a good thing. I will have some visiting to do though., so please if you want a visit please let me know. I have to say though that Rob's mother is one of the first people on our list as she is not doing all that well. I have repeatedly written various people and I think that those who I have written to need to let me know if they want a visit. Also those who want things from Ecuador should also let me know if they want certain things, like spices or souvenires (sp?) I have my own shopping list going of what I want to bring back with me. Too bad I can't bring dutch croquettes with me that I can buy in Salmon Arm..... I will let you all know that I will be looking for weird and unusual toys to decorate my art room with as people here are very serious about their fun, and well I am eccentric of taste. I have found on E-bay Mr. Potato Head the 3 Star wars figures. Yippee. I will continue my search on the internet however..
I also love dragons so I will look for those too. I recently found a horse and a male doll that looks like Rob and I will be endevering to make a centaur. I think Rob would look good as one of my favorite fantasy and zodiac creatures.
Since I have talked with you all I have completed the Gallinazo Rey painting with success. One less personal obsticle to get over. It was a challenge and one that I am glad that is over. It was catharticly (sp?) good to hurdle over. The total painting count right now is 28 and now I am working on 3 paintings at the same time as they are a sequence painting, they will bring me over the top of 31. I will have a party.... I will invite you all.
Any way on with life and back to looking on the internet for things I will be looking for to bring back with me.
Talk with you all later.
Be kind and patient with each other.
Robin
