where does it all go?

time that is! I have had a wonderful fall season. And now things are rolling into winter. It has finally gotten somewhat chilly here. After recently spending 2 weeks in Chicago, I don't think I miss the cold that much. Snow can be difficult to say the least. No chance of that happening here. In a few days we won't need any kind of jacket at all probably. I still love this time of year. I love fall weather! Of course.
so a new year means new starts...fresh beginnings! Still looking for "different" images that inspire me and my work. Lately, I have gone back to my roots and am being inspired by Duran Duran. Considering I met them on Dec. 13th, I have to say they brought back that feeling of "fresh"! Where does it all go? Why can't we feel fresh and fascinated like when we were youthful. Sure that's a part of being "young", but honestly...they were such different times to say the least. Why must it be that when we get older we lose that certain something. Hmmm...do we just get so involved with "life and job" that the "fresh" is forgotten? or is it just ignored?
