It's been 10 months since I blogged the last...

yes, lots have happened, again, in last 10 months. Not so much Good News to share but in difficult times, I still found several "highlights" which I want to share, before uploading my new cards in next blog post.
The first stop was Tokyo, Japan, in June, to visit my mother. I hadn't been there for 8 years, even Guam is much closer than US mainland. I had a lunch with one of my old friends from college at Wolfgang Puck café restaurant. I hadn't seen her for over 10 years.... even we've kept in touch. The 2nd stop was Denver, CO, via Vancouver, Canada. I didn't choose Air Canada but my Mileage gave me the choice of different itineraries, and the one I chose was to fly by Air Canada between Tokyo to Vancouver. This was my first time to fly by Air Canada, and I loved it! :) I really wished I had more time to EXPLORE in Vancouver in Canada but didn't... then, to Denver, CO. I was there for 3 months. Unfortunately "living situation" became a nightmare, and I had to leave, but here are some highlights from Denver.

This is Coor's brewery. I'm not a beer drinker but if I drink, I drink Coor's light and until only 2 weeks before my departure, I didn't know it was only 15 mins. drive from where I was going to stay. I had the most fresh Coor's light at brewery! :)

I'm not a Broncos fan but luv to watch football game. My most fav. NFL player, Wes Welker (WR) from Patriots moved to Denver from this summer, so since I was in Denver, I decided to visit their summer camp to watch Wes Welker, in person! It was AWESOME!!

Then one day, I saw the article on the Garden of Gods online. So, I drove an hour to get there. It was beautiful! I wish I could've stayed there for a couple of nights, to just relax...

As a stamper, this was a dream come true :)  Stamps by Judith needed someone to help their booth at Scrapbook Expo in September, and I got the job, for two full days! Altho I didn't have any time to visit other booths, I was surrounded by stamps & stampers/scrapbookers, and that was awesome! I got some new friends too :)



 

Then, the whole month of September, every weekend, I spent Great time with my fellow college alumni members in Denver, to watch our football games! That was awesome too!! I went to college in east coast. Never imagined that there were many alumni members in Denver & Colorado. I'm glad I found them, and could spend some time with them! :) Now I miss that group...

 

 

 

The last but not the least is the earlier service at this church. Their 11o'clock service is traditional but I luved their casual service, starting at 9. I really enjoyed the early service in this church :)

 

Then I flew to Richmond, Va, kinda 2nd home to me, visiting my godmother, her family, and my best friend & her daughter. It was very tiring (emotionally & physically, both!) but I'm glad I found several things which I could enjoy. :)

  

Now I'm back in a tropical island... tomorrow, I plan to post Three Sympathy cards I made. ... Unfortunately I had to make "Sympathy" cards right after I came back to Guam, rather than "Thank You" cards I wanted to make for a couple of people...

Hope you all are having a great weekend! :) with Much Love, Eve
