Yesterday Afternoon I was driving with Roy back to my place when I could see a huge plume of smoke on the horizon It looked huge so After stopping to get Miranda of we went. We met up with Rob on the way. After a little bit of 4X4ing and a Curb hopping due to crazy traffic we were able to ditch the cars and walk over and grab some photos.

I have been cleaning and fixing up the house over the last few days because it is going on the market. It has been a crazy job and I haven’t really seen an end in sight for so long that I feel like there isn’t one. However, today I am cleaning it up spotless and taking photos for the listings and then I am taking a break from it all and going out side where the weather is fine and the sun is shining. I am far to busy in other avenues to go out and take photos of random stuff but I have achieved complete portability in the photo processing department so that is what shall be..
I have been on a new music download spree over the last while as well. What I often do is search for random keywords and then download odd songs here and there. I f there is something that I like I will explore it more, or if some one has an artist that I like I will browse them and spot download random things. I have come up with some great stuff that way. It was how I originally discovered Rainer Maria. Any way I am still sorting though a bunch of this but some interesting ones are The Starting Line. & Fall Out Boy. Now I am sure most of you are saying hey they have been around forever and you are just hearing about them now? I live under a rock I know, there is no need to point that out. Any who

Yup we climbed a mountain today. Well we had a lot of help from a tramway but it was the top of the mountain none of the less. While at the top we felt that we needed to share the experience with Rob who was stuck at work.

Mike on the phone at the top.

Ahh this weekend has been a crazy one I tell ya. Yesterday we had a wedding which went well and was actually some what fun. Today I had a portrait session and an engagement session. Rob came out and helped with the portrait session which was awesome. It was kind of neat having someone to hold the light disks and what not. :) Anyway I am tired and it is late so I will leave you all with a photo of Maude from our shoot a while back.
