Back from the grand trip to the Grand Canyon and beyond! What incredible scenery we saw! Especially in Utah. Here are a few pics - more will be forthcoming from the rest of the family - I mostly took video, and hope to put together my video show soon!

Garden show and x-country skiing

Hi - Just wanted to share these pics of the Home and Garden show I did with my friend Alan (a green bike courier in town) here in Waterbury. Also Sandy's cousin Jarret and his girlfriend Rosalee came down from Canada two weeks ago and we had a great time skiing on the Trap family lodge x-country ski trails. It was a really beautiful sunny day too which made it extra nice! Love you all! - K

Tim and I had an absolutely wonderful time in Moab, Utah these last couple of days. I would highly recommend it to anyone. The landscape was stunning, the food was tasty, and the atmospheare very cool. We spent several afternoons hiking Arches National Park - which is where most of the photos are from. (my camera is still broken, but I borrowed a friends). I love you all! KS crew - have a wonderful safe trip! See you on Thursday! Katie and Sandman - I hope these desert pictures warm you up! At least you will be able to grow plants when it warms up. These folks can't grow much at all - I think. Love you! Tibet















A snowy St. P's Day!

Well I think this is the first St. Patricks day that I've experience with a snowfall! It's coming down in big fluffy flakes out there and I'm glad to be inside....well sort of! I'm sooooooo ready for Spring!!!! Here's some fun pics - have an awesome time out west you guys!!! I love you so much! - K

Sterling and Simone watching my bird feeder out on the sun porch.
Some big black crows (?) flying up from my bird feeder in the back yard. I think they are cool birds - but a little scary too!
My blooming house plant - some sort of lily. It just starting opening up it's blooms this week - I just love it! It's so tropical! Thanks Aunty! Also I have my blue b-day planter seeded with wheat grass for the cats - It's up on the stool so it can grow some before they start chewing on it. :)
Simone at her favorite window - you might also be able to see it snowing outside.

For Papa!

Hi there - I found this website/B&B via CNN and thought it was really interesting and knew that Papa would find it cool too! I love the first quote on their page:

Serendipity (noun): That quality which, through good fortune and sagacity*, allows a person to discover something good while seeking something else.
-Horace Walpole
18th Century Writer and based upon the Persian folktale, "The Three Princes of Serendip"
* Sagacity means personal alertness, awareness, and understanding
(we looked it up, since we didn't know ourselves).

Anyway - go check it out - www.innserendipity.com

Papa - you'll like the part about their passive solar greenhouse made out of hay bales and stucco! It's a really cool design! - Love you all! Katie
