How About an Update?

Well, I may be inspired by Jake's recent blog posting, so we'll see how this goes.

I am still slaving away in Lawrence at the bank, dreaming of the mountains, wishing I was taking pictures and concocting a way to buy a Prius. OK, the last part may be a lie, but I'd still take one...

My most recent road trip was up to Minneapolis for the New Year weekend.

There are a couple of images from the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden. Nothing splendid, but this blog entry wasn't exactly planned out, so don't complain too much!

I recently had a display of my photography down in Hesston, KS at a local watering hole. (Note: "watering hole" means "coffee shop" due to the fact Harvey County is dry. Poor folks...)

How did it go? It went great if my goal was to sell zero photos! So, I'm not too disappointed. I'll have to meet up with my marketing team and decide our plan of attack for the next gallery display.

Well, there has been a pretty important game on tonight for most of the local folks. KU vs Missouri for possibly the last time in the foreseeable future. Therefore, I will go help boost these TV ratings and give it a good watch.

Oh, just for the record, I'm not supporting slavery. Go ahead and guess who I'm cheering for.

Hello, Folks

Hi guys. Please excuse my absence. I'm struggling with finding stuff to blog about as of late, so the posts are few and far between.

Just a quick update of everything since I've been back from the great state of Wyoming...

I came back and worked for a couple of months at the grocery store, Dillon's, where I've unfortunately been employed since sophomore year of high school. I'm thankful for the time there with extreme schedule flexibility and great co-workers (for the most part). But, it was time to get the heck out of there. I've since taken my talents to South Iowa Street at Peoples Bank. I'm enjoying it there. It's very laid back compared to the fast paced corporate world of Kroger/Dillon's. So, I plan on sticking it out at the bank for a little bit until I determine what my next adventure will be.

Just in case I decide banking isn't for me, I've applied and accepted a position at Yellowstone again for next summer. The job would be the same thing as next year, and likely at the same location. I'm up for any location, so I'll wait to hear more about that later on.

As far as running is concerned, I've been on a hiatus for about 3 weeks now. I got a nasty bug a few weeks ago, which took me out for a week and after that the weather took a turn for the worse. After missing a week of running and trying to jump back into it with crappy weather, it makes it a bit tough.

I've been snapping a few photos, but nothing great. I'll post a couple images here that I recently had printed to fill a frame that I received from Jake for Christmas. Other than that, being the rookie photographer that I am, I find it tough to find my creativity during the winter months, so hopefully I'll come up with something before spring arrives to put on here.

Lastly, I've been considering setting up a Twitter account. I'm not sure why. It seems like that's where all the news in the world comes from now, which is slightly ridiculous, but I don't want to miss it!

Until next time!
