Tango!

We have been taking Tango lessons since November.. we continue to progress albeit slowly.
This weekend we attended a 3 day Tango workshop with Alicia Pons, an instructor from Buenos Aires, who is doing a tour in this country. Here is her website! Alicia Pons

Anyway we attended 2 Milongas, one on Friday night and the other on Saturday night. Milongas are social dances. We attended 2 days of workshops, 6 hours on Friday and 6 hours on Saturday! Anna's feet are exhausted from spending hours on the balls of her feet. Myron is exhausted from keeping a long chest and short leg and leading boleo's and gancho's which Anna sometimes follows.

Alicia continues to tell us that Tango is caminada or simple walking... But we remain neophytes..

Here the shoes rest from incredible workouts..

OBX in February

Hi All

This past weekend we went to OBX to do some purchasing for the beach house new season.
We needed to buy 2 new windows, a storm door, paint, new bathroom fixtures and tile. Oh and a new vacuum cleaner... a Dyson.
Anyway we went to Home Depot, Anna's favorite store in the world, and did the requisite purchasing and got to drive it back to the house in a TRUCK! Anna also loves to drive trucks! Sean and his friend Mark, will come down from Vermont in April and do all the work. They are tremendous construction workers.... fast and fabulous.

Anyway, after the purchasing, we made a fire in the fireplace, ate king crab and poached a neighbors hot tub.
On Sunday we walked 4.5 miles for an eclectic photo shoot which you can see in the flicker badge on this page or as a slide show here.

We simply had a wonderful time with warm spring like weather and sunshine.

See you soon

Skiing Vacation in Salt Lake City

Hi Everyone,

We had a glorious week of skiing at Snowbird, The Canyons, and Deer Valley Feb 2-Feb 9th
Paul, Sean and Liz, Jeff, Christopher and Keiran and the old folks, Myron and Anna, enjoyed a Bed and Breakfast for the entire week . Everyone flew in from parts east except for Paul and Jeff who live there!!
The B& B was tremendous. We had the entire place, 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, kitchen and living room and hot tub... Breakfast was terrific and we were 20 minutes from Snowbird if the avalanches didn't happen. :-) It snowed 100 inches while we were there on top of a base of 300... Amazing.
Chris and Keiran, Liz and Sean snowboarded. Anna and Myron Skied, Jeff and Paul Telemarked.
The only mishap was that Anna broke her left thumb when she fell. Classic skier thumb injury. She is sporting a red cast for Valentine's Day
Pictures are coming soon!

Love you all
Anna and Myron

Yes it is true...

Anna and Myron are engaged to be married!

The old adage remains true:
"Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age."

To celebrate, they uncorked the Opus One 1989; and drank it all; and...
