Dream Inn - Revised (PW Addition)
This year the art in the Filmmakers Lodge at Sundance was provided by a local artist. You can see her work here. She is a photographer and one of her chief subjects is vintage motel signs. I love vintage motel signs; there are quite alot in Utah. One of the prints hanging at Sundance this year was a photograph of the Dream Inn motel sign. The Dream Inn is located on North Temple, and I always notice it on my way to and from the airport. When Sundance was over, I left her a note asking if I could buy the print. She e-mailed me, we agreed on a price, and I picked up the print today. It's really awesome. I'll post a picture of the picture later. Her work is currently on display at the Salt Lake Arts Center.
Inspired by my recent viewing of Word Play, I decided to do more crossword puzzles. I started with puzzle in the back of OK magazine. And I only did that because I wanted to complete a crossword as fast as the Word Play champions complete a New York Times crossword. You have to start somewhere.
I am very glad it is February. January is a long, long month.
I really have nothing to post about today. In fact, this post bored me. So look at the artist's link I posted above. Pictures worth a thousand words and all.
EDIT: Interoffice E-mail received this morning from PW.
Subject: Super Bowl XL1 (sic)
"I'm sure you all know that Super Bowl XL1 is this coming Sunday. If you don't care, delete this email now :-)
As you can imagine I have double the excitement this year, both my Bears and Colts are in the Super Bowl! I am routing for Da Bears though since they have been my team since I was three, but I digress....
Since it is Friday tomorrow, here's an idea....what if we all dressed in some type of football top (if you are a football fan of course) and got into the mood???? Just an idea.
Ok, back to work now...lol"
Some type of football top.

Your post reminded me of the print hanging in Canella's of the Alphabet made up of the letters from vintage signs in Salt lake. I love that print...and vintage signs. Can't wait to see your new print!
In PW's defense, when the Avs were in The Cup finals in '01, I wore my Avs jersey to work on game days. Yup, I'm a dork.
Is there more than one kind of football top?
