#2- one of the things she wrote about were ancient cliff house - "In stopping to take a breath, I happened to glance up at the canyon wall. I wish I could tell you what I saw there, just as I saw it, on that first morning, through a veil of lightly falling snow. Far up above me, a thousand feet or so, set in a cavern in the face of the cliff, I saw a little city, of stone, asleep. It was as still as sculpture - and something like that. It all hung together, seemed to have a kind of composition: pale little houses of stone nestling close to one another, perched on top of each other, with flat roofs, narrow windows, straight walls, and in the middle of the group, a round tower." which I foudn in The Professors HOuse

#9 - this woman is Sylvia Erale and she is a diver who explores deep beneath the sea - really brave to go down there in those little submarines!

#10 - my grandmother was an amazing woman - she wrote for a newspaper in Arizona for over 40 years back when women weren't hardly ever in that profession. eventualyl she married one of the newspaper owners and helped run the business.

#4 - I am doing the question on the photographer and her name is Laura Gilpin - here is what she said " "What I consider really fine landscapes are very few and far between," Laura Gilpin wrote to a friend in 1956. "I consider this field one of the greatest challenges and it is the principal reason I live in the west. I . . . am willing to drive many miles, expose a lot of film, wait untold hours, camp out to be somewhere at sunrise, make many return trips to get what I am after." I like here big cloud image.

#10 - I have a great grandmother who came west by herself and built a log cabin and then wrote to her family to come out and join her. She must have been pretty brave to do that by herself.

The woman in #3 is Georgia O'Keeffe and she is famous not only for her painting but also because she led an unusual and independent life on the land she loved. We think the painting in #5 looks like the hanging trumpet flower that grows here in Hawaii.

The most amazing woman in our family is my aunt / my mom's sister Laura who has traveled around the world living in tribal villages studying women who are healers. Laura - if you log in tonight - we are proud of you!
