Things have been busy here: from the holidays that brought my family visits from out-of-state relatives to work at the office, which has been happily active for December, a month that is typically slow for architecture. I hope everyone had a relaxing and enjoyable holiday. Personally, I’m more than ready to shed this year and head into the next. How about you?

Here’s to a Happy New Year 2010– may it be happy and healthy with good cheer and hard work.
