Summer Archives

Although I recognize that these photographs may be somewhat of an anachronism, I was desperate to find something that I could send out into cyberspace which would validate my existence on this planet. In our computer age is not enough to simply have an experience; it must be authenticated and legitimized through a process of meticulous virtual documentation. And since I have not been vigilantly documenting anything as of late, here is a glimpse of what Annelisa and I might be like now, based on photographic evidence from this past summer.

All of these pictures were taken on our trip to Oregon's famous Jessie M. Honeyman Memorial State Park, our first camping trip as newlyweds (July 2008).

Hey kids! I LOVE, can I say LOVE that picture of you guys! It's priceless.

Also, now that we are nearing Feb. 14th I am reflecting on the trip you guys took down here last year. That was fun. Scrabble, Slurpees, and engagements. You guys are so special.

These pictures are gorgeous. Somehow you captured the clear whiteness of the PacNorthwest coastal light. Annelisa looks so angelic.

You take absolutely beautiful pictures. I especially love the picture of the Oregon coast. Oh, and Happy Birthday!

I remember overhearing you say the other day how much it excites you when people post comments on your blog, and therefore my birthday present to you is this comment. Man, camping in all that verdure would be awesome, the forests here in Colo don't look anything like that.
