See You in 2010…

We just returned from two weeks in Maui to find Bend, OR covered in freezing fog– a weather condition I never knew existed. It gives everything that perfect crystaline appearance, it’s so beautiful you feel like you’re in a holiday card from the 1950s.
And already the New Year is upon us. Last year I spent the evening lighting firecrackers and toasting new friends in Guatemala. This year, I’m blissed out and tanned from my time in Hawaii, and snuggled up against the Northwest chill. I love this time of year, simply for that question that hangs in the air… “what will come next?”
Happy New Year!
Thanks for a year of smart tweets from me and my daughter, Jolie, an attendant for World Air.
I have been reading your blog for a while. It is very well written. I have always focused on where you are and where you are traveling that I never knew where you came from. I was surprised to see that you are in Oregon. I live in Eugene and I thought I would just leave a little comment after subscribing to your RSS for so long.
Happy New Year

I also love the question, what will 2010 bring? However, this year I feel very confident I know what it will bring because of my goals and planning.

Hi Christine,
I’m a little like you a couple of years ago – straddling the fence, then leaping into nomadic existence. You offer great tips and a warm personality. Look forward to reading more.

I’ve never heard of freezing fog either. But you captured it like an Ansel Adams shot… beautiful! Look forward to hearing more in the year ahead.

What a beautiful picture! I’m glad you’re back online, but how you can be happy about coming home to the cold after Hawaii, I don’t know!
I guess the secret is to “Love the place you’re in!” – Wherever that might be. Happy 2010!!

That sounds rough. Sometimes I complain about the heat even though I know I shouldn’t but I just can’t imagine showing up to -30 or so back home in Canada.
Have a great 2010.
A friend who moved to Alaska described freezing fog to me. I can’t say it sounded very pleasant, although the photo makes the scene look peaceful and serene.
All the best to you in 2010 – I imagine it will be a big year for your personally and professionally. Enjoy your time in Bend as the new year gets on its way!
