Dear Life, Tracy and I found my new Beloved in Maine where they serve lobster and soft-swirl ice cream cones. I am over the moon in love. Don’t quit before the miracle!

Dear Life, The Treasure Trip continues. Tracy and I drove north along the Maine coast on Route 1. “Mom, turn the car around. I want to to see Jelly Belly!” A hard brake and pin-turn for our first photo shoot at Wilbur’s Chocolate Factory. We left with Chocolate Blueberries and smiles. Picnic lunch near a marsh, quaint small towns. Made our way through the Orland blueberry barrens to the lake house where Alix and Gary greeted us with open arms. Dinner on the screened-in porch then a few steps to the dock to watch the loons and moonrise. Evening ended playing Rummy 500. I moaned and laughed through a colossal loss. No more groaning. I am a champion of life!

Dear Life, The day was filled with beautiful people and places. Walking the Promenade, we met Richard Wilson, a well-known artist and treasure. Delicious baked goods and coffee at The Standard, lovely shops, an art store where, of course, I left with a big brush. Tacos and a siesta, a picnic for dinner at Fort Williams while Marimba music sang out over the ocean. “Golden light” moment at Bug Light, celebrating its 150th Birthday, capped a perfect day.

Dear Life, The Treasure Trip continues with Tracy, my daughter, riding shotgun. We are rolling to Maine to visit friends. Feeling the love!

Dear Life, Days of fun and frolic with family and friends continue to enhance my heart. I have grown a camera onto my face taking so many photos that catch memorable moments. Grateful!

Dear Life, The mural sums up NYC. My sister and I took a train from Fairfield, CT into NYC where we had a “city” day. Grabbed a taxi to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and saw the incredible summer exhibits plus permanent collections. Afterwards walked through Central Park, hopped a subway to 34th St. and went to Macy’s flagship store, a shopper’s paradise. Strolled up 5th avenue to the iconic Grand Central Station where we enjoyed a three-course dinner at the terrific French restaurant, Grand Brasserie. Treasures all along the way, a New York City Day!

Dear Life, I left Santa Fe on June 4th, 27 days ago, for my Treasures Road Trip. I’ve been to 14 states, including Amelia Island, FL, Annapolis MD, New Hope, PN, Cold Spring, NY, and with family in CT. Days are full with parties, the beach, visiting friends, and going to 12-step meetings in Westport where I got sober over 44 years ago. So many memorable moments. I am relaxing, too. My body’s DNA says, “We are home”. I get into the hammock and swing!

Dear Life, Yesterday was a “first”; a Virtual Reality experience watching Violet play in a VR space. She chose a game where she could work at different jobs. Violet is 7 years-old and preparing for her future! Today we are having a birthday party for Max, who is 9, and DJ turning 6. There will be a treasure hunt, games, gifts, great food, cakes, ice cream and lots of NOISE being made by 18 people celebrating at the big outside party! Pray no rain!

Dear Life, I was a student at the School of Visual Arts, NYC in 1983. I studied painting and Lucio was an inspirational teacher offering guidance that continues to resonate throughout my creative work. I made the journey to Magazzino Italian Art Museum, Cold Spring, NY on the closing day of his exhibit to honor one of the “treasures” in my life and the art world. He turns 90 in November. Thank you Lucio for your spirit, work, and long life.
Yours Truly, Pamela Rose
