Music

Music

For my Paul who is on the road--
"Music is a moral law.
It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm
and gaiety to life and to everything."

--Plato

A Favorite Jackson Photo

A Favorite Jackson Photo

William Henry Jackson's photos always bring me to the exact time in space.
I like to think of his vision as my personal time machine.

This is one that captures me each and every time I visit it.
Point of Rocks on the Beaverhead River, 1871.
I can hear horses crossing on the plank bridge.

My Edwardian Hat

My Edwardian Hat

My hat for the Utah State Capitol Gala is finished.

It was so much fun designing my hat to compliment
my Edwardian style dress for the gala.
