Salon & Sei
I’ve never attended a Salon, have you? I have attended cocktail parties galore and this was reminiscent but with some very interesting folks: writers, artists, architects, attorneys, real estate agents, policy makers, etc. We were instructed by our host that we should remain on topic to discuss the arts, our work and/or politics.

Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to get there to view them myself this trip, but there’s always next time. It was a great trip back to my hometown with a lot of work, meetings and of course eating. I always miss the food the most. We broke in the middle of the trip to drive to Blue Mountain beach right outside of Destin, Florida, for the weekend with my extended family. I’ll post more about this later. I have a busy day to play catch up.
