Red Doors

Replacing the back french doors with some that are not warped. Been painting them this week. We decided on white inside and a bright red outside. Should go well with the exterior's chocolate paint.

A Model Niece

Seems that Denver has gotten a shot of the family genes as niece TVI has taken the town's senior modeling competition by storm. The reluctant participant grabbed the lead cover and top honors in the Element One Studio Magazine contest. Fashion shows and more snaps to follow.....

Garden Time

After The Rains

The garden has had two weeks of rain to grow and bloom. Bunches of Calla Lillies in the back yard and the delicate rock roses in the front along with the newly installed Pride of Madeira.

Mixologists

We have been toying with some different syrups and ingredients the last few months and came up with a winning combination this afternoon. Last week I made a simple syrup of rosemary, peppercorns and orange zest. It's been in the fridge waiting for a sign. It came today when friend Franny came over with a huge bag of grapefruits and oranges. We squeezed a bunch of grapefruits and added the syrup along with some tequila and a spritz for WL. I added a little whiskey to mine and thought it tasted like a whiskey sour. The concoctions continue.

Saab In Motion

The Saab 99 doing some running shots on it's way through the Arizonan desert to Los Angeles.

Saab 99

WL's mechanic drove for 18 hours to Tuscon and back with his brother to retrieve a rare 1978 Saab 99 yesterday. WL is loving life this morning. It turns out that the car is a more prestigious silver than mere grey. The inside looks very mod and not in horrible shape considering the age. Love the 70's logo.

Busy Week

From Mexican brides to semi naked soccer stars, last week had a little bit of everything. Started off monday morning with Ellen directing an ostrich at the LA Arboretum and ended on friday afternoon in a photo studio with the world's most famous footballer.

New Balance

I finally found some footage from the very cool New Balance commercial we did in NYC last fall. A few cold nights and runners. There was even a shot of me in the doc taking a spot meter reading. The star is Jenny Barringer who tells us that the commercial started airing in February. Watch the goings on here.
