自我介绍

This is me & my dad at his birthday party in 2014 at the Willow's, (Website hidden by Airbnb) 'Ogden' was the proud proprietor of Common House, and his three season art studio, it was too cold in the winter, he would return home to Hawaii where he lived since the '60's. It was his dream to be apart of something that would become bigger than himself; so, to grow CH into an artful and spiritual community of mindfulness and creativity, we hope to be offering classes in Tai Chi, Yoga and meditation someday. This has always been our ambitious plan for CommonHouse. We aim to even have workshops in acting, writing, art and podcasting. And, looking forward to having a sizable garden in the future as well. So, all that remains a ‘vision under construction’ at present; our big, beautiful, blank canvas, is slowly coming into view and always anticipating splashes of gift and story. We do hold A few TaiChi classes on the platform Monday afternoons and Friday mornings and meditation Monday evenings. Ogden was a lifetime artist, dabbling in the abstract at the latter part of his life. (Check out the fun 'fridge-magnets' for a small donation) ~ Sadly, we lost Ogden in the spring of '17 and his presents is greatly missed, and his essence is everywhere. Though his art legacy fills the house - please, enjoy the space, his art, philosophy books and his spirit energy. Some of his prints have price stickers on them. If you see something else you like, let me know which one - I'm letting them go for the cost of reproduction, always working, to “let go of the attachment, yet hold onto the lesson". ~ We also have a kitty named 'Bodhi' who enjoys Common House and works hard to be a joyful ambassador. My father and I are both from the Oahu originally, so anywhere on the pacific rim is a favorite travel destination. Also, Canada and New Zealand hold stunning travel philosophies as well. I, D'ellen, had planned on staying in Lake Charles for a year ... 14 years ago. I love this town; the biggest little town I know! So Come! . . . Drop in on a Yoga class. Have a Primo Gourmet Hot-dog at Botsky's on Pujo. Or, ride the bicycles along the lakefront at sunset - springtime is packed with festivals, beautiful weather and crawfish ! Visit Lake Charles! The secret is out! :~)
