What’s been goin on

I left work early today and decided it would be a fantastic idea to eat an entire $5 footlong.  Yeah, not really so fantastic.  So, my tummy is not really in the mood for me to sit up and write an entire full-blown post right now.  Instead, I will just post some pictures.  Because who doesn’t like pictures?

These are a continuation of photos from my trip to Michigan.  My sister and I went downtown to eat gelato and take pictures for her art installation project.  Here’s some of what we came up with.

I took my own picture of a circle as well.  Starring Jazmine.  I call it the ciiirrrrcle of miiiiiiiice!  (think of the tune to the circle of life from lion king)

We also went back to the cottage and took a kayaking trip down a really pretty creek.

On the flight home, I took some pictures out the window.  This one was for Matt.

This is flying out somewhere above Kansas City.

Shortly after this it started getting dark so I couldn’t get any more pictures, but we flew next to a thunderstorm, which was really cool to see.  Being above the clouds as they produced continuous bolts of lightning was crazy, scary and beautiful.  Just another little thing reminding me why I do what I do as an earth scientist.  Totally awesome.

going wherever the wind takes me


I am a soil scientist living in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I am originally from Michigan, where my family still lives. And I went to grad school in Las Vegas, Nevada, where I lived for a little over two years. This journal is a documentation of my life in Albuquerque and beyond.
