I woke this morning to find this wonderful scene outside my window. The night before it was too dark to tell what was out there, so this was completely unexpected. Click to see the full size!

There were lots of vendors at the Bazaar portion of Pamper Me Fabulous. The power even went out twice!

For lunch, I took a break and strolled along the gorgeous coast.

I was basking in the beautiful day at a fantastic location.

The lawn area was used for fitness courses, while everything else was inside that building.

The seagull had quite a nice perch, watching things like that sailboat out in the distance.

A wonderful trail brings us down to water level to enjoy the waves.

Hmm, I wonder what kind of berry that is? Reminds me of yumberries.

These were pretty cool rings at a store in the Keys, but were way too big for actual wear (at least on my fingers).

elevator stuck on first floor with "in" message

Now that's confusing - it says IN but the doors are closed and the elevator is out of service.

Mayor Villaraigosa sent Opportunity Green a lovely message officially declaring 11.11.11 Opportunity Green Day! How awesome.

Volunteering the past few days has been busy, so here are some shots. No time to write much yet!

The main stage area was huge and had some really cool lighting.

This light was created with what looked like old milk jugs or some similar plastic. Reminds me of the scales on a fish!

It’s nearly time for Opportunity Green 2011, and I am reminded of these fun Kimball Fit chairs that were on show last year.  Who needs a traditional chair when you have this?

Don't worry, just approach and sit!

After a long day, this was a welcome resting spot.

It looked so scary, but it was just a plant burning off some of its stuff. Not very eco-friendly, are they?

Gifting season

You know, the nice thing about the holiday season is that it’s a gifting season. I was completely surprised when we started receiving cards and gift baskets at the office last year. It was my first time in a work environment where that happened and it was pretty exciting! Each week brought more and more food until the whole office was pigging out constantly. I even got a Patagonia bag from one of our clients! It’s only about another month now and the giving should be upon us again.
