http://napavalleyliving.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Everything you want to know about moving to and living in Napa Valley! Saturday, April 17, 2010. Was good-natured and informative, pouring my brother and my husband about eight tastings apiece, and my husband ended up buying two bottles of reasonably-priced, delicious wines - a Pinot and a Gewurztraminer. It's a good winery for those who, like me, can't drink alcohol (genetics! I did run a parfumerie over ten years ago, so finding top notes and bottom notes is second nature to me. I'm looking forward to ...

Everything you want to know about moving to and living in Napa Valley! Wednesday, August 4, 2010. And Napa Valley Writers Conference Sneak Peek. I was asked in a recent blog comment, "I Have to ask now that you have been there a bit, how do you like it? My husband and I are considering it as a retirement location.". So, after being here a year, here's my list of pros and cons:. Flowers bloom nearly year round (may be a con if you are allergic to pollen! I haven't been able to enjoy these, but if you like...

Napa Valley Living: October 2009
http://napavalleyliving.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Everything you want to know about moving to and living in Napa Valley! Monday, October 19, 2009. We did discover one downtown park worth strolling - Fuller Park. It seemed to have a handful of sleeping hobos in it at midday on a weekday for some reason, so it may get dicey after dark (? Here is a shot of the picnic area:. Anyway, for shame, city of Napa! Surely you're making enough in tax revenue to designate and design some public park lands! Labels: cheeseburgers in paradise. Thursday, October 15, 2009.

The Scandalous and Daring Adventures of Rusty Childers: China Trip, Continued
http://rustychilders.blogspot.com/2009/06/china-trip-continued.html
The Scandalous and Daring Adventures of Rusty Childers. Sunday, June 07, 2009. China Trip, Continued. After Wenzhou, I went to Hangzhou and visited my friend Penny. I had a wonderful time, easily the best of my trip in China. Tai Shan is quite a climb: 11 kilometers of stairs straight up the mountain. I did it though! Then it was back to Beijing with Jorge and Jessie (and about half of Jessie's family, who got off on stops along the way) before catching a plane back to Portland. damn it was good to...

http://napavalleyliving.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Everything you want to know about moving to and living in Napa Valley! Monday, November 30, 2009. So, we had a lovely quiet Thanksgiving, with a duck breast and a bit of confit from The Fatted Calf, a delicata squash stuffed with cranberries, cornbread stuffing, grilled endive. We baked a pumpkin pie and husband G made ginger-flavored whipped cream for it. We'll have to think up some more things to put in that basket. Also, I did find a little park with a paved little walkway for our daily walks, called ...

The Scandalous and Daring Adventures of Rusty Childers: Goddard MFA in Writing
http://rustychilders.blogspot.com/2010/02/goddard-mfa-in-writing.html
The Scandalous and Daring Adventures of Rusty Childers. Tuesday, February 16, 2010. Goddard MFA in Writing. So it's done, my first residency as a graduate student. All I can say is wow. I knew what to expect; I knew how amazing it would be, and how crazy. But actually doing it, participating as a student is so much more powerful than working for it behind the scenes. MFA program and a completely different experience. Posted by Rusty Childers. So when did you move back? I agree with Michaela about the bro...

The Scandalous and Daring Adventures of Rusty Childers: December 2009
http://rustychilders.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
The Scandalous and Daring Adventures of Rusty Childers. Thursday, December 17, 2009. Tis the Season; Oh Blog How I Missed Thee, Etc. So my mother says I should blog more. And not about music or movies or anything like that. She wants to hear about adventures and my kids and coworkers. Well, since this does have "Scandalous and Daring Adventures" in the title, she has a point. Tomorrow, my best buddy Andy is coming for a week long visit, which is going to be OMGAwesome. So all, in all, things are gran...

The Scandalous and Daring Adventures of Rusty Childers: Daegu
http://rustychilders.blogspot.com/2009/07/daegu.html
The Scandalous and Daring Adventures of Rusty Childers. Monday, July 13, 2009. Made it in last night. The flight itself wasn't too bad. Just long, and coupled with the lack of sleep from the night before, very tiring. Looks like I'm in a nice neighborhood. I arrived to a clean apartment with fresh milk, OJ, a bottle of water, and Korean frosted flakes waiting for me. All new pots, pans, and dishes. My old stuff I left in storage when I left Gwangju. And best of all, a nice bed. Posted by Rusty Childers.
