Predictions For 2011 — From 1931

A recent article from NPR got me thinking today....Running through my mind are a couple of questions:

Straight No Chaser - The Christmas Can-Can (Single Edit)



Tis' the time of year to be a bit cynical and lose the meaning why I celebrate to begin with....the pace of this song alone reminds me of the crazy running I do every year.  MY NEW PHILOSOPHY:  I don't believe in organized religion....I always refer to this time of year as "The Holiday" meaning:  A time to celebrate/appreciate life and reflect on the last year.  Surrounding myself with all things sparkely, food, and good people.  A new tradition starts this year.  A HAPPY HOLIDAY TO YOU ALL!  *jingle*

I must admit the recent snow here in MN covered the trees in a beautiful way and inspired to me to think about creating a dance piece based on the arrival of another extreme season in MN.  I will try to post up the pictures of some of the trees I have been looking at ..... now if I can just find  those winter clothes to keep me warm outside that long....brrr
