Happy Holidays everyone!
I’m writing this note from the West Coast of New Zealand, where I’m traveling at the moment in pursuit of beautiful light, great imagery, and an endless summer. It’s been a fun trip so far, and I’m excited to see what’ll happen next. Before I start the busy 2010 wedding season, I’m headed...

Jumping for Joy Down Under
This doesn’t look like thinset to me…
So… aside from building out our basement into a studio, we’ve got other big plans. Redoing the entire floor, redoing two bathrooms, redoing a kitchen. When we move we’ll have renovated almost every room in the house, as well as every window and the roof. What?!
Aaaaaanyway, Alicia went to the local home center the...
The Mouth
Back in Cali kickin it with the crew. Miss it here. Good times, great friends. Toots got his first chance to visit one of our favorite places on earth, the stunning mountaintop boulder field at Lizard’s Mouth, home to the best moderate sandstone bouldering anywhere. And actually thanks to our buddy Bernd, a bunch of...
Window Ninja 101
Sorry, more dorky house maintenance stuff. I’ll try to keep it to a minimum!
A few days ago we had 20 windows in our living room, which was annoying. And then we started putting them in, and things got even more annoying. I’m surprised I can type right now given the times I’ve turned my thumb...
Home sweet home
Straying from the wedding and portrait theme lately, but hey, I think this stuff is cool.
Our home!
First, something with big paws and big claws visited us the other night — we think it was a bear trying to get into the hot tub for a soak. Notice the claw marks on the cover.
Then...
Toots almost gets owned by a deer!
So we’re trying to clean up a guest bedroom on a windy, cold Saturday when we hear Toots throwing a hysterical fit outside. He’s ADD to begin with, so when he gets fixated on something, well, beware. This time he couldn’t take his eyes off of a huge deer on the other side of our...
Tooters!
A while back I mentioned that we’d gotten a Basenji with a gas problem that we named Toots.
Here he is! Not the greatest pic, but enquiring minds want to know. We don’t know where his nipped ear came from. The furrowed brow is a typical Basenji thing. By the way, Basenji literally translates to ‘bush...
Toots and a house
Alicia and I have been kicking around the idea of getting a dog for a while, so we cruised down to the Denver Humane Society and looked around. We almost came home with a neurotic, bug-eyed Boston Terrier named Rader, but instead we brought home a mellower pup who’s part Basenji. The Basenjis — which...

How to sync your Google calendar to iCal without delegates
Sorry for getting off topic here — this is a community service post of sorts. I’m posted this in July 2010 but I am purposefully backdating it so it doesn’t clutter the blog — and if you actually FIND this post, it means you were probably intentionally looking for it.
Getting on with it.
