report from the field.

I've been on the road forever. Virginia and North Carolina. Been eating lots of pb&j's out of my rental's trunk, hopping from flower farm to flower farm.
Poor nea couldn't come with me, although she tried to by imitating one of my suitcases...I miss her.

I'm staying at an inn outside Charlottesville, VA. Jefferson stayed here and signed some document, and so there is no TV in the room. I'm into TV right now in a big way since I discovered Long Island Medium a few nights ago at a different hotel. I need a massage, but other than that life feels pretty good. I was in a slip of depression before I left, but being busy has lifted me out of it.

I'll have lots to share with you from my travels when I get back. Till then trust that I'm either on a ladder, driving deep into Romney Country for some really special flowers or being hit on by old men at gas pumps.

You're still an inspiration,Sarah.
Speaking of Jefferson, there is an article on Mr.Jeff in the most recent Smithsonian that is pretty eye opening.

PLEASE come a little further south and do a workshop! SC would be great, but Atlanta, Charlotte... I'd be there in a heartbeat!

Nea is the cutest pup. I'm sure she's been missing you, too.

Oh NEA!!!! Poor girl, she looks so sad I can barely take it. It must be hard for you to leave... give her a big hug and kiss from all of us in internet land.
As always your work is gorgeous as are your photos. Simply brilliant.
