Joshua Tree Part II

Damn it I want to add more but blogspot is being lame.

Joshua Tree (2 weeks overdue)






I need to get the hang of blogging. I'm not good with keeping updates online. I went to Joshua Tree a couple weeks ago... and got very sick afterwards due to the high speed chilly winds (note to self: the desert is definitely NOT warm at sunset).

Anyways.... photos.

Finally


I have finally bought a working pen light to do some light painting with. I haven't done some serious painting in probably 2 years (yes, it really has been that long...) Time to go to Joshua Tree...

Porterville Part II









Definitely the more mediocre of the two sets of photos. This is all about 20 minutes west of Sequoia Nat'l Forest, which we couldn't get into due to snow.

Weekend in Porterville, Calif.







Beware of cows and girl scout cookies.

Sydney







I have been so fortunate in the last year; I have graduated with my Bachelors, scored a job right out of college (even if it's not necessarily associated with my major...), the majority of my immediat family finally migrated from the Midwest to the West Coast, I have traveled to Hawaii, Japan and Sydney and met some amazing people along the way. Sometimes you have to take a step back and remind yourself that life is pretty good.

I was very impressed with Australia. The country is very conscientious about the environment, very much like Japan is. Their cities are very clean, you rarely - if ever - see a homeless person (I never did in Sydney). The people are very gracious and very friendly. Australians, particularly, are very up-front and 'real'; you don't have to guess their sincerity. It's there. They're very laid-back and active, wonderful people. I would love to live there, at least for a year.

Anyways... more to come later. I have to be up in a few hours.
