Monday, February 27, 2006. Didn't exactly follow the "to do list" that was made last week. But I did get some absolutely amazing books at the Multnomah Public Library, which is what I spent reading for the majority of the weekend. These books have already proven to be extremely helpful:. New Hotels For Global Nomads. Hotel And Resort Interiors. Hip Hotels On A Budget. Andthe clencher or them all. Hotel Design: Planning and Development. What I did get done was the Ankeny Facade Study.

Spending the rest of the weekend here in Eugene. My pops just got back to town after being in Denver for 6 mos. so we've been kicking it. Hung out with some girlfriends last night.

Wednesday, April 26, 2006. On The Road Again. Ahhh, I'm back in glorious studio, still a bit sick, but not contagous. Finally had a meeting with J.P. and I'm ready to start rolling again.

THE AIRPLANE:metro transit post dig. Wednesday, February 22, 2006.
