downtown salon

As of yesterday, I OWN A SALON IN DOWNTOWN BOISE!!  It's still getting put together, but my friend/biz-partner and I are excited to open the doors.  We're determined to make it a success. 

Illuminate is more than a salon - it's a place where local artists can consign/show special pieces.  It's always been a dream of mine to have a place like this.  In my earlier vision there were books and coffee...funny that there's an amazing used bookstore right next door (Trip Taylor Booksellers) and a coffee shop on the corner (The Fixx). 

Maybe there's something to dreaming after all.  Wonder what's up next for me...

Finished my marathon!!!! 

It was pretty impressive, too.  I was last.  Seriously.  Two days later my chiropractor managed to put my ankle/foot/something-in-that-region back where it was supposed to be. 

I did all 26.2 miles in seven hours.  Now I get to say I'm part of that 1% that finished a marathon AND I can mark that off of this Bulleted List.

Next up, flamenco...
