This blog and how you can help!

Zak and I have recently become engaged (as you Facebook folks know!) and have decided to continue our life together in NW Washington state, near the Mt. Vernon area. We share a mutual love for the ocean and mountains and no destination seemed more fitting to begin our next chapter together. 


Moving is terribly expensive. Please consider donating anything you can to help us cover moving costs (gas, the cost of a vehicle, moving supplies, camping fees -- the list goes on!). All donations up to $49  receive an original poem by me, a couple photos (nicely reproduced) from our journey, or an original 5x7 Dinos de los Muertos painting by Zak (using your favorite dino!). Donations of $50 or more receive an original 10.5x13 Dinos de los Muertos painting by Zak (using your favorite dino!) and an accompanying original poem by me. 


Want to call it a graduation/engagement/moving/housewarming gift? If you like it we love it. And you get a gift in return! A gift that actually gives back without regifting!

Donations are accepted through PayPal -- no donation is too small! If you have another gift in mind than what's listed above, do let us know. Your gift could go out quite soon (depending when you donate) or shortly after the move (for those of you who love a deadline). Want your poem to be about something specific and/or strange? Have some favorite words? I love a challenge!
