concourse d'elegance

This past weekend was spent in unusually sunny weather in Pebble Beach. On Sunday we were treated to the final day at the Pebble Beach Concourse by one of Mr. Shope's clients. All in all, the classic Aston Martin's were my favorite. If I had to choose one (a dilemna I will never face) this shiny red Ferrari will do. While the rich and famous gawked at the cars, I turned my attention to the array of hats being worn by the spectators, something I can actually afford.

It was a treat to spend the day in spectacular setting, checking out how the "other half" (which really must be less than 1%) lives.

get hyp

this is where i have been lately. no,not doing a backbend on a letter p, but working hard to get things in order for the studio.

the website is in the works. check back next week for more than just a pretty picture.

green piece

this maidenhair fern is the latest addition to my home. the lush greenery at the sloat garden center pulled me across the street yesterday and also provided an escape from the rain (?!). i am hoping it survives in what little sunshine pours in from the alley way into my kitchen window.

hyp

today is the first 'official' day of my new gig...director of the newest yoga studio in berkeley! harmony yoga pilates, hyp, is located in the Elmwood neighborhood.

i moved to the bay area over 7 years ago....and ended up in a cube, behind a computer screen, designing datasheets, info graphics, logos and websites. (when i wasn't playing ping-pong or eating free lunches with the rest of the dot-commers). along with the economy, the job didn't last, but several great friends did. i was lucky to work for someone who trusted me enough to find my strengths, and even luckier to remain friends with him. however, i never thought i'd be working with Neil again... this many years later... opening a yoga studio. another opportunity to spread my wings, and this time without the bright yellow business cards.
