    Beach and Softball

    I did a little write-up about softball’s first win here. Just wanted to share some photos of the sunrise the other day.  I’m having a blast and wanted to throw up a quick post before we hit the field again

    Playing with the Nifty-Fifty

    I love Staunton.  No matter what time of year, it always yields beautiful pictures.  I had a coworker cooperate with me during my lunch break so I could test the 50mm lens.  Snapped these photos downtown and on campus as well.  It was one of those days where it was beautiful.  I was quite happy…

    Camp Kekoka Polar Plunge

    I went to watch my friend Nichole (whose camp name is Roe) jump into the water for Camp Kekoka’s Polar Plunge last weekend.  I grabbed some pretty awesome shots. All in all, it was a great day and I was super happy to be out and about.  Donors (like me!) raised over $20,000 to help…

  • Lunch Break Learnin’

    It seems like I learn something every time I’m on the road. This week’s lesson has been to take time to slow down. I can feel the candle burning at both ends, just a little bit.  I’m tired.  It takes a lot out of me to do all of this travel.  While I love it,…
