Letter Book Playlist and the Correspondents... so far

Some changes to the Blog… I added an iPod, with a few songs to listen to while you’re reading through the posts and comments. The music loads automatically, so if you want the volume low you’ll need to adjust the volume on your computer, or if you don’t want to hear it at all just click the play/pause button on the iPod. Any requests?

Also, below is the list of people’s names and locations that have, or will have the letter up through May. If someone does not want their name and location on here, please let me know and I’ll take it off. We’ll be adding names as the letter moves on from Nancy. I’d really like to get as many names in advance as possible so that we can really keep track of the book as it moves on to each person. I’d really hate to lose it after all this effort that everyone has put into it so far.

So Nancy, your letter book assignment is to name your correspondent and pin them down for a name, as well as make them join the blog!

I’m still trying to figure out the whole openid thing so that anyone can follow without having to join, gmail, twitter, yahoo, or whatever else they allow on here. If you want to comment you can without having an account at one of those places, but you’ll have to do it anonymously. I actually, pasted one of Nancy’s comments from an email on there. That was when I was trying to test the openid, which was a complete FAIL… I’ll figure it out one day.

March... From Kelsey to Kyle

So, it's March now and thankfully the letter is still moving onward, which is good news.  The letter is now in the hands of Kyle "The Badger" Howerton. Who is probably going to be upset with me about that name I've given him appearing here and also happens to be Kelsey's older brother.  She did a really nice job on the front AND back of her letter pages.  I like how both sides are very different.  The front of the letter (above) is brightly colored and the back (below) is more muted and very dreamlike.  

We all seem to be under some French influence, as we've all included things that are part of France...  I had included one of my tickets from the Paris Metro, as well as a few random things that were in a brochure from the Louvre on the cover, as well as in my letter to Elise.   Elise also included some things that were related to France, one being the Louvre and Kelsey had a large Fleur de Lis on the back of her letter to Kyle... we'll see if it continues throughout the book as it moves on...
