Gone Fishin’

June 10, 2010

Well maybe not literally, we usually stick to fishing with either my dad or brother or else we never actually catch anything, we did however escape to the mountains (Colorado Mountains) for a few days since we were headed to Denver anyways for some family time. We stayed at my family’s condo in Silverthorne, Colorado and took advantage of the fantastic weather and things to do. One of the best things of the trip… the Mint steakhouse. If you are ever in that area don’t leave without getting dinner there, it is amazing.

I heart Seattle

March 31, 2010

I had a recent trip with the BYU mens lacrosse team to Seattle, Washington for some games a week or so ago. Let me start by saying as much as I love Denver and hope to someday live there again, Seattle might be right up there in places I would absolutely love to live. It is beautiful! Yes it rains, a lot, I understand that, however if you are a Colorado native and love the mountains and love rain then this may just be a good place to go… Outside the city reminds me of Silverthorne, Colorado with much much bigger pine trees, more water (both on the ground and in the sky), and much greener. Not to mention more people, a big city twenty minutes away, and the ocean hours away.  It is sounding like a fun place to end up for a couple years..

We had a few hours to wander the Pike Place market while we were there, it was fun to see how different it is then Utah (and even Colorado for that matter.) Of course I have seen little marketplaces here and there with fruit and vegetables but nothing like this where they are literally bringing fresh fish in from the ocean right then and there. I love seafood, and we dined at this tiny little restaurant that had some awesome fish and chips we found tucked back in the market. What a great change of scenery!

Oh and for those that just might be interested in the lacrosse photos done while I was there, you may view them here!

One test, that is it, all that is holding me back from being done with college and being able to become a full time creative. It is amazing to me how different right brained people are from left brained people. Polar opposites I tell you. For some odd reason I decided to leave math as my last course to finish, coming from classes where I was drawing, taking pictures, and coming up with artistic lesson plans for first graders, my brain did not want to think numbers. Well, I have almost made it out. January has been killing me because all I want to be doing is taking pictures for all you wonderful people out there. Instead I have been stuck inside my prison cell of arithmetic.

I have been taking my camera everywhere with me lately because I have wanted to try and do a shot a day (I keep hearing about these 365 projects and I admire those of you that can stay on top of them!) Mine might be more like a shot a week, maybe the 52 plan, BUT I have really been enjoying how different every single day it (visually speaking) so I have been shooting it and this particular shot just seems to fit in with my topic this week… There is light at the end of the tunnel, I can see it, almost feel it, taste it (except I don’t think light taste like anything, but you get the point.) The light and landscape were doing some fun things this particular day, so I added a few more shots to make the post more fun.
