Megawatt enjoying the first snow of 2009

We finally got some snow!!!  Yeah, this is pretty pathetic (see video in media center below too) but the dogs think its heaven.  Old Meggie was falling asleep sitting up as the snowflakes kisses her muzzle.  I love this photo above.  She is such a dear dear dog!!

Of course then she woke up and all heck broke loose.  She was play bowing to me to chase her BELOW

I have been getting a lot of inquiries from the panda groups and friends about when we leave for China and our itinerary….so below you will find our schedule for the  journey which can also be accessed any time in the upper right hand column of the blog along with my audio/video travel updates

CLICK IMAGE BELOW TO ACCESS THE FULL SIZED  ITINERARY AS WELL

THE CALENDAR IS FOR THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY 2010

This is just a small sampling of what we are doing on the trip.  Next week I will be writing a detailed description of the places we will see and the people we are meeting with.  I have some wonderful news and updates to come in the days and  weeks ahead!!!

AND UH OH….ANOTHER NEW PANDBAG!!!

This one is called “FIRE AND ICE” and will be up on the website later today.  If you are interested before it is posted just let  me know and I can email  you the details.

The last 3 bags never made it up there because they were spotted on Facebook and Flickr first and quickly adopted…. so here is a FIRST LOOK at the new bag!!

ABOVE is the back of the bag….absolutely amazing tie dye work on this one.  The front has SEVEN 3/4″ mirrors on it to catch the light!!

My label on the inside of the bag

Have a fantastic day my friends .  I will be in touch very soon

And its all over the news today….The National Zoo’s Chinese treasure Tai Shan will be sent to China as per their agreement between the zoo and China.  Oh how DC residents will miss that boy but with any luck, I will be in Bifengxia shortly after Tai arrives and hopefully will be able to take lots of photos and video him in his new home

PANDAS UNLIMITED (A DC based group I belong to) are adopting Tai for life if possible as a group.   I am taking my jewelry sales money from 2009 which I have been saving all year to put towards this Pandas International sponsored adoption. You all have a part in this so thank you again for your continued support purchases.   Tai is a prince that deserves the best the world has to offer!


And another bit of fun news…..our ipadio phone blog (aka PHLOG) here at Graffiti Gossip was featured as STAR PHLOG on the ipadio website today.

After a number of emails back and forth with the founders of ipadio this morning, I have some FUN surprises in store for our panda, moonbear, elephant travelblogue!!! OMG I can hardly contain myself but will keep that bit of news for a blog post next week!!  I love all these techie toys!!

Before I show you some new goodies from the studio, I had to show you the photo Steve took in the wee hours of the morning of Lillian in her couch potato pose.   Below is a photo of her as a puppy in the same spot ….same blankie.   Some things never change do they.  And I do think Lil looks great in stripes!
