Month: September 2008

Sometimes things are just hard to explain and the size of the Grand Canyon is one of those things. So here is something to help show you how big the canyon really is.

Early the next morning we headed to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon which is 5 hours from the more popular South Rim. The reason it is such a long drive is because you have to drive around the canyon

I am SO excited about Infiniti and their announcement of a convertible! I love my car, but I really wanted a small sporty car at the time. But Chris had a 2 seater truck and I felt I had to get something

While we were at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon we had to hike one of the trails, and we chose to hike the most popular trail which is the Bright Angel trail which begins in front of the South Rim Lodge. One

You may want to know that camping in the National Parks is actually a great experience. The camp grounds are nice and moat have facilities. But they are very hard to get because they book up early. So

I know I probably shouldn't say this kind of thing about someone, but Sandra is in her office right now talking to a bride's Mom about photography, and I over hear Sandra answering the question, "What

Being a wedding photographer has one advantage, you get to see everything that all of the other companies in town can do for a bride and groom for their wedding. Specifically what they can do when putting

When you think of the American West you think of outlaws and gun slingers, or maybe you think of rattle snakes or coyotes. And with eight deaths per year at the Grand Canyon you may even think that the

I don't watch the news so I have no idea what is going on in the world. But I went online to pay my bills today and nothing on the Bank of America site is loading. I had two payments I decided to make

We had a friend take pictures of Duke and Goblin last weekend (I will post those when the prints I ordered come in) and I had to do something different - not just the usual dog scarf. I asked my friend

I love it when the dogs dream! It is so cute how they have a muffled bark and their feet move!

It's hard to believe that in the middle of the summer when it's pushing 90+ degrees and 90+ percent humidity that it could possibly happen, but when Sandra pulled the filter out of the A/C to clean it

You don't realize how HOT it is in Orlando until your AC stops working.

I have to say I wasn't too impressed with the runway collection from Badgley Mischka. But I did see this SUPER cute jacket! I want it! I am on a bolero-style jacket kick right now. I tried on

The Whole Foods near us opened in June and I've been asking about the famous WF Vegan Chocolate Mousse. Well, today they had it! Woohoo! I am SO excited!

You may think that you have seen a canyon, and you may not believe that something could be bigger than belief until you see the Grand Canyon for the first time. And it is not anywhere near the sign that

I was telling you not long ago about another site that I have that was hijacked, it received over 80,000 hits in about two hours for various prescription drug traffic that was then forwarded on to a site

I forgot to mention I can't wait until Friday - Badgley Mischka! You might remember my swim obsession last year with all of the brooches. I hope they do the same again this year - I might get my butt

A few fun finds from New York Fashion week - makes me want to go shopping! Too bad the malls here in Florida are filled with thick, heavy fabrics. Yuck! We can't wear that in Florida's scorching heat.

Since purple is THE color for fall, I decided to do a little shopping. I really don't own a lot of purple and it really hasn't been a favorite color of mine ever. It is always too 80s looking. But

Out of nowhere among all of the red sandstone there was this huge monolith of dark metamorphic rock. It's called Mitchell Butte, and it's the first thing we see as we enter Arizona! How bizarre that

Last night we sat out back on our new patio. We got the pavers from our friends Lori and Donny and we finally got them installed! They look awesome - our patio is so much bigger. I also found some fun

I am always falling in love with the best waterproof mascara only to find out that it has been discontinued by the time I run out. I started with Revlon ColorStay Overtime Lash Tint. Do you remember

I don't usually watch the VMAs since I don't know anything about the videos. Does MTV really play videos anymore? But I saw they were going to be on and I figured we could watch. I wasn't really

After we left Bluff, Utah we headed farther South and discovered the Valley of the Gods. It is named the Valley of the Gods because many of the rock formations were named after gods of various religions.

It's amazing what can happen to kill your plans for a week, and this past week was a loss for me thanks to some bored hacker who took advantage of one of my other sites. I now know much more about web

So I am officially BAD - posting a photo of a real person at a real wedding. But hey - this girl is ON TOP of the trends. They showed this look TODAY at fashion week and here she is wearing it to a wedding

NY Fashion week is underway and I'm not seeing anything I love...yet. One odd trend is the tee shirt under dress look at Charlotte Ronson. The really odd thing - at tonight's wedding there was a girl

Whenever we go out of town, we always buy Duke and Goblin a new toy. They are so cute - they get all excited and play with the new toys for a few minutes. Then they plop down and start licking them.
