Where talking trees do their banking in Southern Colorado.  I'm sure the lines take forever, too...

As a change of pace, I thought I'd post some just for fun shots that I took yesterday.

( Cut for space! Totally work safe unless your rabidly anti-sunset... )

So, the other day Andrew and I explored this space with our friend Aaron.  At one point this used to be the Taos Wool Mill where they did artisan spinning, carding, and fibre prep for people.  In fact, they even did specialty things (dog hair, chinchilla, alpaca, etc.) for local artists, as well as the usual sheep's wool processing.  The building ( Read more... )

So Halloween was fun.  Oddly, work itself was just as much if not more fun than the party in the bar that followed.  From adorably costumed kids to really nice customers, it was simply a great night.  Yes, I'll admit it, I got a lot of attention and I loved it, but, really, who can't say the same?  The bar party was fun, too.  Cody came as a ( Read more... )

Yesterday was a long, long day - but a good day.   During the day, Cody and I took a trip to Espanola to pick-up chicks and do some other errands.  And at night, Cody and I both worked a huge show at the bar.

The chick part was great.  We went to the County Farm Store and there was an entire room filled with chicks, ducklings, goslings, and the ( Read more... )

Well, this morning was infinitely better than yesterday morning. Tuesday night I got like four hours of sleep at best.  Why? Well, first off I stayed late at work because Grayson returned to the store with their SUV literally stuffed with groceries.  (And, yes, this is literally, as they could not see out the back windows and every inch of ( Read more... )

And now I shall impose upon you pictures from my trip to the Denver Aquarium. I didn't take pics at the bar - which was too bad because, believe it or not, the Aquarium has a really nice bar. Anyway, on to the pics...

Pic Spam time!

It was a good day. We went to church (which took forever to get there due to the LA Marathon) and then I met my friend Colleen for lunch.  It was good to see her.

So today my mom and I went to Santa Monica Pier. Honestly, the one thing I miss living in New Mexico is the ocean.  I love the ocean, the smell, the sand, the waves - pretty much everything but the crap that washes up on the beach! Anyway, I thought that we were going to kill each other on the way down there, but once we untangled ourselves from ( Read more... )

Well, yesterday turned out to be (mostly) better than expected. Brunch was okay, but I picked rather than ate - which was fine because nobody really noticed. I love the social aspect of these brunches. I honestly like talking to people, I just don't really like the food. However, to overcome this, I generally tend to eat something before/after and ( Read more... )
