| A very relaxing beach day with Shanna. My pulse slows and I feel wonderful. I always forget how great the beach makes me feel until I am once again, laying there, sipping wine, listening to the wind, waves and beach chatter. I was going to meet Joe and Z at the vacay house that night BUT some dick drove by Joe's car - stopped, got out, broke the rear wing window - opened the door, saw nothing to take and drove away #retarded #painintheass. Meanwhile the security guard, at the school, hears the car alarm and comes out wielding his gun...too late. #sigh #thatsaitaly Joe is in the Uk from Thursday, then Germany for Av's graduation - then Tropea for vacation - #yay. Celle Ligure 5 July 2013 PS Shanna is going home to America we will miss her :( |
| Avalon received excellent recognition for his thesis and exhibit ~ scent as art. Right you can see the 14 containers which were filled with various memory scents. On the opposite side were the scents and their significance. Right Memory of comfort. I was sincerely impressed. It was SO cool! What an original concept. However, you can't experience it virtually or via video - you have to be there in person. The others were: Memory of Loss Memory of Anger Her Memory Memory of a Beginning Memory of Joy Memory of Lust Forgotten Memory Memory of Intimacy Memory of a Fight Memory of Sadness Potential Avalon received accolades from a perfumer who visited his exhibit and as well was selected, with a handful of other students, to present to a small group of very important people. #amazing #newconcept #socool |
| Celebratory graduation dinner at Vetter in Stuttgart. Typical Swabisch quisine. It was great and just so nice to be together. Leaving tomorrow but visiting with the Plapps first :) 20 July 2013 |
