Yearly Archives: 2005Jeffrey, Pashcal (our driver/tour guide/bodyguard), and I took a trip up to the Statue of Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janiero, Brazil this morning — an incredibly beatufil site, with the most amazing views of the city below. There was a quiet calm on the mountain when we made it to the top. I… Oh wow I would love to take a look out there, beautiful photo Jessica, it must have been a wonderful trip I love the way the blue ski is behind the outstretched hands of the Statue of Christ the Redeemer and.. the words you used, the “quiet calm.” I’m so happy for you to have the opportunity to see so many of the beautiful sites of our world. I spent Thanksgiving this year in New Orleans with Jeffrey. We felt that it was an appropriate place to celebrate Thanksgiving. It was a place to be thankful. Thankful for even the small things — like a place to go home to. We were in New Orleans the day before Hurricane Katrina and because of… WOW Jess – I bet that was really an amazing experience. This picture is at the Charlotte Bobcats basketball game last week — good times. The picture was taken by Jeffrey’s 3 year old granddaughter, Claudia. What a doll! We are waiting in the JFK airport for our departure flight to London. Jeffrey will give a talk the day after tomorrow in Birmingham — and then… London is a beautiful town, I’v been there long ago. Have a good trip enjoy yourselves and will be looking forward in seeing yoyr photos Jessica, I hope that you and Jeffrey had a great flight and are enjoying your time in London. I’m glad you are planning to post pictures and journal about your trip. Exciting to keep up with your travels. Life on the road is unique. And fun. And exciting. And tiring. And enegizing. All at the same time. Thank goodness more and more airports have wireless access — it makes a world of difference for passing the airport time. From now until the end of the year is solid travel. I am greatly looking… If you don’t have dinner plans for Thursday you guys should try the Border Grill at Mandalay Bay if you haven’t already. It’s one of my favorites – great food, great drinks, and very charming outdoor-seating atmosphere! Have fun and fly safe as always. so who are you on the road with? traveling out of a suitcase, fun & tiring, i’m sure! Thanks for keeping us posted on your schedule. Good thing you have a big suitcase!! Love, Mom So what do you do that keeps you traveling so much? Say hi when you drop into San Diego. Wow!! That is a lot!! What are you doing all of this traveling for? Wow you are travelling a lot these days Jessica. Wishing you happy travelling and good flights. Hope to hear from you soon talk about being busy!! Spending the day today in Las Vegas. We flew in last night and arrived at 10PM. We will leave today at 7PM. Less than 24 hours here. I got the chance to relax out by the pool, and the weather today is amazing. Perfect temperature. Just the right amount of wind. A beautiful place. Your blog is awesome Jessica – the pictures are extra fun. Have a great day wherever you are! Love you! Sounds really nice Jessica Through Jeffrey, I’ve had the opportunity to meet some of the most amazing people. People that inspire me. People that touch me. People whos insights, and own reflections on life and what’s around them, teach me. I feel lucky that I’m a listener. I listen, and I process. I listen, and I articulate in my… Jess, Love that pink shirt on Jeffery! Did you pick that out? Is that a shawl you are wearing? Looks like a nice dinner. I’m glad you are having the opportunity to meet so many inspiring people. Love, Mom Missing my little pal. Wondering how he is in the world. He was a good boy. I know that he’s causing trouble wherever he’s at! Surfed over here from Ali’s blog and just had to say what an adorable dog Leo is! I hope you’ll elaborate on what happened to him. Oh how I love that picture and the little Leo in it. I know you could get that picture published! I pray that Leo is finding love and compassion in his new home. I’m sure he is not finding as much exercise as he was getting when you two were walking the boardwalk together! Oh Jessica he was a cutiepie. Did you loose him? Just arrived in Philly. My first time — Jeffrey’s home. He’s got a whole list of places to show me. I’m really looking forward to it. And the excitement within him is glowing. Our first stops included Rick’s Philly Steaks (amazing), a taste of the Amish sticky buns, and the Philadelphia Eagles game. We’re enjoying… Have fun! Have a nice time Jessica. Hope you and Jeffrey enjoy yourselves. Learning to live with pain. Because I’ve suffered from scoliosis since I was about 14 years old, I thought I would have to. Until this past Sunday when I had my first visit to a chiropractor. Dr. Phil. What an amazing man. He is kind. Gentle, but effective. Intelligent. And passionate about what he does…. I surely hope this helps Jessica, living with pain is awful. I have RSI in my neck and shoulders. Pain all day, awful. And there is nothing they can do about it sadly enough. So I do hope they can help you. Good luck with the therapy hey Jessica - Jess |
