Introduction I am Mama of five and LOVIN' life's crazy little adventures!! A lover of all things Mid-Century mod- I have been told once that I am a 'human cultural conundrum', and a graphic designer-schminer.

I LOVE...
the ocean and beachcombing in winter. I really like road trips but don't take enough. I get a kick out of crazy roadside architecture of the 50s and 60s. Route 66/Americana style design. I love postcards for the same reason, that nostalgia of yesteryear...
I love travel posters of the Golden Age, Art Deco, 40s Hollywoood Glamour, and yes, I think Johnny Weismueller was the best Tarzan!
