Fini Friday! Vacation, Inspiration and Forward Motion!

Hello Hello!

Welcome to Fini Friday!

I've photos of the nifty conveyance used on our vacation and a few ideas and inspirations to show you today!

First, the conveyance!

This is a Jeep that served in the US Postal Service in it's life before we adopted it.  Isn't it lovely?

You see it here with the doors locked open as well as packed and ready to go on vacation!

I'm quite pleased with how all the packing and loading went as it involved some streamlining and downsizing.  It was a relief to easily cull through what to pack based on what had (and hadn't!) worked from previous years (we vacation at the same event every year).  This meant, too, that I was easily able to find what was wanted whilst on vacation! 

YAY!  

This a perfect fit with my ongoing intention to focus on the wanted or desired, rather than what no longer serves or is unwanted.

Onward to the ideas and  inspiration!

Ideas next!

This is a batch of loot I picked up on Walkabout a little while ago!  The burgundy tag in the middle is the metal identification tag from a motor vehicle!  It was found on the side of the road with no wrecks in sight (thankfully!).  I can only theorize that it flew off of a crushed or soon-to-be-recycled vehicle as it was hauled away.  I'm not *quite* certain what I'll do with that tag, but I *love* the idea of fashioning it into something completely different and new! 

Whee!

Let's close this post with inspiration and a new event!

I found this very old frame some time ago and have been looking for the perfect thing to do with it since.  

And now I've found it!  The inspirational thoughts and quotes have been collected from various bits of chocolate wrappers, tea bags and so forth and I love the bohemian nature of it!

I keep this on my desk and refer to it often, even as I type this post! 

Woooooo!

Now about that event....

I've another BlogTalk Radio Interview!

Transition Tuesday...Music to Ease Back into the Everyday...

Hello Everyone! 

You may have noticed that I was on vacation for about a week and so there was no Magical Monday post! 

I'm back from participating in CONvergence and it was a blast!!! I am one of many who help organize this convention throughout the year and it is always fun, heart-warming and a bit nerve-wracking to see it all come together. And then it does, in wonderful ways and becomes is simply fun! 

Sleep, as with most awesome events, is in short supply... mostly because no one wants to miss a single moment of such interesting stuff and so I'm easing into my everyday world with a post full of beauty and music and the awesome-ness that people can create, if they are of a mind to. 

But first! A very important date in Geek History (Future?) that slipped by unnoticed as I was  prepping for CONvergence!

From the Back to the Future movies... 

I'm sad to say that I don't see any hoverboards around just yet... Boo!!

And now, for the music! I have one photo and two videos for you! 

First, the photo!

  

This is a project in Paris where pianos are placed all over the city so as to encourage citizens to play music more often!  Nifty!!!! 

And then the videos! Fun with Your Cello! 

I love the look of joy on this musicians face!!! 

And finally.... Ode to a Flashmob!

 Clicky! 

This flashmob orchestra was orchestrated by the Banco Sabadell of Spain in celebration of their 130th anniversary. 

Very cool. 

And with that, I bid you Adieu and will see you on the morrow for Whimsy Wednesday! 

Ciao!
