Putting off a trip overseas for another year (I lacked the funds), I took a drive up the west coast with Yolanda through Oregon and Washington for a week. For me, it was a chance to get away from school without going into debt, and with much less stress; for her, it was a chance to bond with my stuffed lamb in a plot to kidnap the lamb and keep it herself. (haha, i'm kidding...maybe).
Anyhow, as with any vacation that lasts more than two days, there are too many pictures to show all at once here. Since I used up all of my spiffy cgi/scripting knowledge on last year's southern cal trip, I'll do something plain and boring here.
The curious reader should first be
introduced to my stuffed lamb:
This is Lamb E. Pie, Jr (one of the animals of the Bearington Collection). If you want one, you can look around at your neighbourhood Bearington Collection retailer. From Berkeley, for instance, you can take a 10-mile drive on 24E to Orinda and find a number of lambs like this one at Hollyhock #22.
Affectionately known as "Lambiepie" (say Lamb E Pie really fast), or just "Lambie", she'll be referred to as "LEP" for the purposes of this web page.
Note: just so you don't think I'm completely nuts, please
understand that I made up that whole thing above. I just needed
something to fill the space next to the picture, that's all.
