Wild horses: you may not be able to tame them, but you can sure photograph them!
This past weekend I took a trip to the coast with a friend in search of wild horses. I lived within hours of this place for years but never visited, so this time I was determined to see the horses. The first trip out in my friend’s four wheel drive got us lodged in the…

Halloween Kitties and other shenanigans
Wow, it’s been a long time since I last posted. No internet in our new residence has posed more of a restriction than I thought. So here’s the mini-update: J and I rented a place in San Diego– YAY! We went to Disneyland for 3 days for my birthday weekend (first time he’s spent my…

A Kind of Nostalgia
I know it’s a little early still, but today I found myself feeling nostalgic for a place I haven’t left quite yet and finding that small, insignificant things are making me a little sad.

Mexico Mission Photos
This post will have to be short as it’s already late and I’ve got a long day tomorrow. In case you haven’t seen them yet, there’s a new album over here with photos from the Mexico mission trip. I haven’t had much to blog about lately, not because I haven’t been doing things, but rather…

They’ve got captions and everything! Ooooooh! (Also, all the other photos are way more flattering, but these entertained me.)

Saint Pat’s Day rewind
So, four years ago J and I were in Ireland for Saint Patrick’s Day. It is a religious holiday. And then at noon, they party. It reminds me somewhat of Mardi Gras, in that all the little towns and villages and things have their own parades the weekend before the day itself, with all of…

Easing back into things: Week 8 of 2012 in photos
Last week was transitional, really, and I didn’t have the energy to post these photos last night, but here is last week’s set of photos. Monday morning we got up at 3am and had a 5am flight to Maui. Redeyes are usually cheapest (which is our motivation, though I’m not sure for how much longer–…

Here, there, and everywhere: Week 7 of 2012 in pictures
This week’s photos will be without much more explanation than what they themselves contain. Please bear with me. Monday, 2/13, we got to welcome home a certain ship. ^_^
