My Gnome Home

"Once a person has been in contact with a gnome there life will be altered, their understanding of the woodland creatures increases, their love for mother nature grows and that individual will never be the same"-David Bowie 

I feel like I have to leave now after the perfect way the night ended. . the perfect weather, my perfect friends.
I feel like I know some of the cream of the crop, most wonderful people. I feel so lucky that people love me the way they do, that I can be completely myself and people think I'm great. I wish I could give a personal shout out to everybody. You know who you are.

And in the end I can't help but think about the beginning. When I was just a young buck coming up to Logan 2 years ago, looking for an adventure, expecting to find love, excited and alive. I had just bought Freddie Mercury's solo album and was loving the song "living on my own" (1984 radio mix, very nice) and so I have been listening to it today and just thinking about how good Logan has been for me, for my soul.

Just impossible to think about posting the best memories or my favorite pictures, cause there is just too many.
(I would say this blog is moderately fair job at capturing the life I have had here Like THIS post or THIS one, or even THIS, THIS, THIS and THIS just to pick a few)

So after dinner with a friend, a wild house warming "goodbye to McKay" party,  and then coming home to lay on the roof with the gnomes and watch this jet make the coolest white streak across the night sky, I'm going home. When Natalie came in to say goodbye forever I surprisingly got all choked up. I am going to miss these crazy Gnomes the most of all. . . I love these girls so much it has been a wild ride these past two years.

Oh my gosh... I forgot about that bird! What a funny/terrifying day that was! I'll always remember that phone call.

...and cutler... priceless.

We're gonna miss you!

Great post. I hate losing Logan-ers. I really do.

I laughed a lot in this post. Loved the Mooch's video. Loved the bird funeral - very funny. Loved "gawackamolly." Love the Bluebird.

Come stay at my place. Anytime. Any. Time.
