A Supper Picnic and The Madness has Begun













Maroon lake, Aspen Co

Yesterday was phase one of studio re-do. We purged. Vanessa sneezed dust. I parted with crap. We decided on paint colors. We struggled to imagine the new space. We pretended like we were moving out. There were a few shining moments where I re-read my old business plan worksheets and happily concluded I had done all those things, still want to do all those things, but just need to push further and deeper for the business I have built for now. A shining moment. I am excited to change the way we do work from t he bottom up.

More about that soon but first I had to post a few from our evening picnic at Maroon Lake in Aspen, another perfect moment in an entirely different way.
