Just a Quickie

Change of Command Ceremony, Camp Pendleton
This has been a busy, busy week, but a good one.  I haven't been able to write as much lately-- for some reason I've been feeling a bit more functional than creative on the work front.  Must be the logistics officer creeping out in me-- you can take the gal out of the fight, but you can't take the fight out of the gal. Ok, dumb Marine Corps joke.  Moving on... 
                                                          
I am full-steam ahead for Shanghai the first week of November!  Patty Carroll will be exhibiting 30+ photographs at Shanghai University, and I will be her 1-woman entourage for the event.  Look out, China!  I promise to take a bunch of pictures and journal everything I possibly can-- all that remains on my list is figuring out what to wear.  Gammy MB will be sitting in with the 3 kiddos on the home front while Chris is working.  I've stocked the fridge with all of Seattle's best, to include several bottles of sanity (i.e. wine).  And Rorey Carroll will also be in town with her sweetie, Zebulon Bowles, as he will be touring with the Emmitt-Nershi Band (ever hear of String Cheese Incident or Leftover Salmon?  Wow.)  He will be playing on Friday, November 5th at The Tractor in Ballard.  Sadly I will miss this event, but will be there in spirit.  Check it out: http://www.emmittnershiband.com/.  Congrats, Zeb-- you are a rock star!
                                                                                                                                                                                                    
Rorey & Zeb
More Announcements-

Join the Ferrer Foundation on November 10th from 6-8 pm at Epic in Chicago (112 W. Hubbard) for a happy hour to benefit children with incarcerated parents.  This organization is a new client, and I am inspired by their commitment to helping these children shine.  Rock on, Ferrer Foundation: http://www.ferrerfoundation.org/

Thanks again to all my friends and family for their continued support.  I'm amazed by how much I've grown from this experience.
