I found this interesting site about going on a "Mystery Vacation". Women sign up with their buddies and then climb in a bus for weekend of adventure. They have no idea what they will be doing or where they will be going. I thought this was interesting but I'm not sure it's something I could do but it did give me an idea. Next month is my 30th wedding anniversary so I asked hubby if he could handle going on vacation without knowing anything about it. Really I've planned most our joint vacations so other than not knowing destination it's not that strange. What makes it hard is that I like to travel (run around and see everything 24/7) and my hubby likes to go on vacation (sit and veg in one place) so finding something we both would like to do makes it a challenge.
Flat Fish Paper Arts was born many years ago when blogging first started. My family did a lot of camping and diving along the California coast. California halibut are huge fish that start out as any normal fish. As they age, one eye will start to move to the other side and the halibut will become flat so it can lay on the bottom of the ocean with both eyes facing up.
I always like the idea that we all start out the same but life experiences slowly changes us. In my case, my creative talents went the way of paper arts. Flatfish are always looking up when they mature and as with any artist, we see inspiration in everything around us - always looking up.

Years ago a local dive shop had a photo of a diver who caught a halibut so big he had to throw it over his jeep to take the picture. Our little spoof with our daughter sitting in her toy jeep with dad's halibut on the hood. 1987
