Not much to report today. I was busy, but didn’t seem to accomplish much. One productive part was a Reiki session with Marci. My back has been a wreck for a few weeks.. I thought I’d pulled it lifting something (the big tesla coil ? ) ,, but Marci pointed out thatI was probably holding a bunch of physical stress in my body leading up too and through last week. The expectations around the anniversary of Sam’s death have done a number on my body and my mind.. I do feel myself getting stronger again.. I feel pretty optimistic and energized… and of course sad, too. That’s life..<\/p>\n

Tonight was fun.. Diane lead a snowboarders yoga class tonight with 14 eager boraders..includign Gabe.  As soon as that was over, we zoomed down to the Flynn Theatre in Burlington to see the Shaolin Warriors<\/a> . They’re a traveling troup of buddhist martial artists that put on an amazing show of strength, grae and acrobatics. It was beautiful to watch.  ” Everyone was  kung-fu fighting. Those cats were fast as lightning.. “<\/div>\n

They did all sorts of wierd danger stunts like breaking iron bars over their head, chopping cabbage on their stomachs, suspending themselves on spears, knives, nails and other sharp stuff and… here below… getting binked in the gut with a battering ram..   What ever turns you on, I guess !<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

We got home around 10 and immediately got to work on the Friends of Sam Art Auction<\/a> stuff (remember, Friday, Nov 30 at JDK, 47 Maple St, Burlington see here<\/a> for details)
As I write, Diane is busily matting and framing stuff. Here are soem examples we have.. and this is a tiny, tiny portion of the stuff we’ll be seeing on Friday.. I think it’s goign to be amazing.. <\/p>\n
Here’s a photo of Trevor that Gabe took.
<\/p>\n

Here are some cool works in progress that Matt T worked on. I helped him solder them together today.. They are now very cool picture holders. Theyre beautifull <\/p>\n

Here’s an amazing oil that Max’s freind Ryan did just for the show.<\/p>\n


Max’s freind JJ from Pratt did this subtle piece \ud83d\ude42 I love this one.. it was always on JJ’s wall. I can’t beleive he’d ever part with it.. it means so much to me that he donated it to the Friends of Sam
<\/p>\n

Max just called and told us that there’s even more Pratt art in the mail to us for the sale. <\/p>\n

<\/center> Stuff keeps coming in. If you have art you sould consider donating.. there’s ‘s still time to get it in.. please drop me a note or call us at 802-434-3576. Also.. we could use everyone’s help in gettign the word out about the event on Frday night. It’s mostly for adults.. there will be hors de vours, hordevours ? hor-desvores ?
(stuff to eat) .. a bar, music and great art. It’s worth coming down jsut to see the inside of JDK.. it’s a work of art in itself. We’d really like to fill the place.. so please consider coming.. and please pass on the invite to anyone who’d like to come. <\/p>\n

OK.. All for now.. More tomorrow. Gn’te all, Gnite Sam
