THE ULTIMATE PARADOX . . .

As many of you know, Jerry and Nick just returned from the 19th Annual DAWNTREADER sailing trip! (see bhbconline.com) I'm super excited to have them back! I was exhausted handling all the difficult tasks by myself (like taking out the trash, getting the mail, and deciding where to go out to eat).

Because Jerry did his "Where's Waldo" impression again, there were plenty of pictures to document the trip. For the last three days, I've been reviewing them (pause for yawn), and it struck me that this trip is a paradox. What, you may say, is a paradox? It is the ultimate opposite!

Each photo below is labeled with a word and then - wait for it . . . the next photo shows the opposite of it. Yes, it's a stretch, but I thought it might make viewing more interesting. I tried to pick a variety and offer some unique affects. There's A LOT more, so if it ended way to soon, just let me know and I'll post some more. In the meantime, happy viewing!

NIGHT LIGHTS . . .

We're about to launch into the summer season which will mean exciting, new pictures (seniors, sailing, and scenery) and a surprise--stay tuned! In the meantime, I wanted to re-post these pictures of our trip to Las Vegas before they drop off the blog radar screen forever. The night lights are amazing!

RIVER VIEW . . .

Some guys have all the luck! Recently, Jerry had to go to Chicago to set up for a major national furniture show called NEOCON. When he needed to stay a little longer than expected, Holiday Inn Merchandise Mart put him in a suite. The view from his room was amazing; with the perfect weather, he could even see water taxis and trains. The changes from day to night are incredible!

Even though he had to wait in the ever-present line, he remembered to buy me my favorite popcorn, Garretts . Don't you love Chicago?!
