Hi Chrysti, Thanks for inviting me into your artful web. I just moved to this side of the country from Seattle. We are practically neighbors. :) AND it is soooo hot down here in Orlando. We haven't had rain in days... something I was very used to up in the northwest.

Looking forward to wondering around your website and blog.

Hey, Chrysti-- Glad to see the great variety of stuff you are working on-- your energy to be in what appears to be several places at once is incredibly admirable. I'll have a booth at Maker Faire this year in Northern California. Check out my "day gig" as Executive Producer of television series for PBS/WETA, "The Music of America: History Through Musical Tradtions", ignoring, please, the static website...we're workin' on it.

Best, Deb
