Exploring Colorado Springs

We went to the gym this morning to work out, then spent 3 ½ hours getting food stamps!!  Yea for the food stamps, but what a horrible wait!!   I have been soooooo wanting fresh salad makings and fresh fruit!!  I am thankful for the chance to stay with David and his family, having them serve us wonderful meals, but there are a lot of starches and I think I’ve gained back the weight I lost the last few months!  

This afternoon, we went to Old Colorado Springs to just get away and wander about – found several art galleries  – I met Kang Lee in one of the art galleries.  We hit it off immediately!  She’s a Christian artist and wants to put some of her artwork in my gallery.  She also hired me to teach a class for her Sheppard Art Institute!   I gave her my flyer about my artwork and I told her I would e-mail more info (my bio and class info).  It looks like I’ll start teaching a 3-4 week course on music and art history.   We saw the most wonderful miniature museum – the Michael Garman Museum:  http://www.michaelgarman.com/   This artist in town for 30+ years, has been working on these life-like figurines and entire towns, all brought to life with holographs and sound recordings.  So awesome.
