Trek Tri-Island Photos!

Yay!!! The Trek Tri-Island photos are finally here!! The professional photogs did an amazing job of capturing the event! I tried to pick out the ones that go with my team, and a few others I liked, but you can CLICH HERE to see the rest of the group and some amazing photography and scenery as well!

This poor guy had to sweep us most of the first day, we were the late start problem children… He was a good sport! (As you can tell) :)

Thanks to The Joy Guild. For taking and letting us have personal use of the photos AND being out there supporting the ride!

Photos!

I purchased a Smugmug gallery in October of 2 years ago for my birthday. Mostly to try and improve my photography, but turned out to that it was used more for sharing photos and adventures. Gotta love sharing!! Either way, best purchase ever. I have been trying my best to keep it up since my transplant soooo…..

In other words - I've been updating my photos people!!

GO CHECK EM' OUT!

Ps: I'm sorry if they aren't up to par. I'm still learning! :)  THANKS

Cell Phone Cameras

It's pretty cool what you can capture when you always have a camera with you.

Since there are cameras in just about every electronic device now days, I thought it would be fun to post a selection of cell phone photos from the past year. Well here you have it! I was pretty indecisive but as you can imagine cell phones do produce a lot of photos. I got it down to about 50 and here they are! (bye the way, I realize how many pictures I take of my dog and/or my own face…)

My favorites and a few just a bit larger:

all taken since I woke up from my transplant!

Um. Yes. Home Girls.
The Rock and I. Axel being a dog.
Blame it on the Goose. Yes this is the best graduation hat EVER.

Passed out.

Protesting my leaving by getting in my trunk.

Protesting my leaving by getting in my bag.

Rogue Elves.

Aww YAY!

My attempt at graffiti.

All the rest!!

I just thought I would throw all my cell phone pictures out there!

New Years Goals over Half Way!

Here was my New Years goals/resolutions that I set in January. Since it is a little over half way through the year I thought I would reflect on my progress. (Crossed out goals are the only ones I have finished.)

“The tragedy of life doesn’t lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goals to reach.” ~ Benjamin Mays

I commented on a few, crossed out a few, the rest I'm still working on! :P I've got a few more months!!

  • Continue Blogging
  • Consider that done.

  • Continue photo a day (and make it to 365 photos)
  • I have continued it, but won't reach 365 before the end of the year. So I say, Conquered!

  • Read the Bible
  • Having trouble reading with all this energy… and having a dog with 50 times my energy hahaha.

  • Train for a triathlon (which I switched to a duathlon since I do not want to swim lol)
  • Hills… On the course of the duathlon are stopping me at the moment. It's a short ride but with DEATH HILLS. This might migrate to my 2012 goals.

  • Improve my lung function
  • Thinking it might be out of my control, but I'll keep trying.

  • Train Axel (my doggie)
  • He's a brat but he can be good…. He knows some cool tricks! I will definitely go back. (For the 4th time)

  • Go backpacking
  • Ride 50 (maybe 100) miles on my road bike
  • Run 5 miles
  • Finish organizing my iTunes library
  • DONE & done

  • Get my mom to karaoke

Skydiving

Some people had been asking to see my skydiving photos since I posted one in a small gallery a while back. I figured I would post a few more.

Photos from one of the coolest experiences I've had thus far!
