Happy 2010!

-
Wow... things have been so crazy, I didn't even realize I hadn't posted here in over a month. My apologies to you loyal readers, thanks for checking in.

I took a part-time job with the Port of Toledo just after Thanksgiving, and that has been a lot of fun and quite an education so far. I'm working in the office, updating their website, and helping put together the 2010 Wooden Boat Show scheduled for August 20-22, which will celebrate the Port's centennial year.

Seems the holiday season is always so crazy, and this year was no exception. Lots of singing gigs with the GraceNotes and the Sweet Adelines chorus, along with the normal holiday stuff and this year, working on top of it all and keeping up with my photography business... whew.
I was able to enjoy a nice Christmas dinner with my mom, my aunt Irene (Dad's sister) and my Dad.
I'm already looking forward to spring with its longer days and more oppportunites for new adventures. But in the meantime, I'll just keep on keepin on and try to keep up with it all.
Happy 2010 to you, I hope it brings you much joy and lots of new opportunities to experience the best that life has to offer.

Marshmallow farm?

On the way home from the Tillamook Forest Center last Sunday, Eric stopped the car so I could snap some shots of what looks like a farm that produces giant marshmallows. We watched the machine that wrapped these giant hay bales in white plastic. Why they do this, I don't know. To keep the hay fresh, perhaps? It is kinda fun to picture these things as giant marshmallows, tho.

I had the extreme pleasure of attending and capturing images at a very special wedding recently. I've known the family for some time, and always enjoy being around them, they are all just super nice folks. I did Karissa's Senior Portraits a couple of years ago, and we got some of the most awesome images... here is one of my favorites. And here is one of my favorite shots from the wedding. What a lovely couple! Congratulations, I wish you all the very best!

Road Trip! Part Eight: The Tetons

-

 From Denver, we headed up to Moran, Wyoming for a glimpse of the Tetons with their fresh layer of snow.  Here are some of the shots I got the day we arrived. We got up early the next morning and went horseback riding.  It was 23 degrees! What a blast!!   There's a magpie on the curb saying, "Good Morning!" Lots of horse's asses...  The horse ranch life... hot coffee, chewing tobacco and cigarettes, and lots of horses.  They have a herd of 130 horses and mules.  What fun!  Here is a link to the outfit we went with:   Grand Teton and Jackson Hole Horseback Riding - Teton Horseback Adventures This is Holly, the mare I rode. She really didn't like having her cinch tightened, but she was a really nice ride. And this is Little Snort and Margaret. Our lovely guide, Georgia.  She did a great job.  She HAS a great job! I loved riding Holly, she listened to me really well.  What a beautiful girl. Georgia took some shots of us ...
