Yesterday

{{!gwi}}

Me yesterday at the Great Wall in Mutianyu China, about two hours from Beijing. I'm home now and so happy to be here. Been an interesting, eye-opening three weeks in Southeast Asia.

Jodi, I hope you will tell us more! Welcome home.

This wasn't yesterday, but it is what yesterday looked like:

Glenda's post from yesterday reminded me of a few years ago when my wife and I went to the island of Madeira for a conference. We arrived a day early without a problem, but a huge storm blew through the Northeast that day and my wife's family were sending pictures of the snow like my picture above to the family e-mail list, comparing who got hit the worst. So my wife posted the following picture to the thread that we had taken on a walk from the hotel to downtown Funchel, Madeira just that morning.

A friend of hers was supposed to be the keynote speaker at the conference, but since his flight was to have been a day later, it was canceled and he missed the conference entirely.

Great pictures! Yea! Jodi! I've been wondering how your trip was!

Nice to see you, Jodi!

Me, in my younger years, at the Great Wall!

The Paris Mill, a well-known and cherished historic mining mill near Alma was named one of ColoradoâÂÂs Most Endangered Places in 2004 by Colorado Preservation Inc.

The facility was built to stamp and crush gold ore during the mining boom of the late 1800âÂÂs. It was last used during the 1970âÂÂs by the Mount Bross Mining Company to re-process old mine waste piles.

Nicole that picture is absolutely beautiful. Such vivid colors.
