Not far from my home there is a road that I go out of my way to drive. An intense forest hugs the road only briefly interrupted by vintage fencing and filtered sunlight. Not what you would expect in the suburbs of Dallas. It has always been this way. I discovered the road not long [...]

We were in the Vail Valley last week.  It was incredibly beautiful. And the perfect temperature…in the shade. I have 1000s of pictures.  Approximately 67% of them are of poppies. The poppies were so vivid.  I may post a poppy a day for the rest of the year… Many of the photos above are from [...]

We visited Winter Park, CO on Sunday. Get it? The title of this post is Summer Park. And it is really Winter Park. A few days of vacation can really unleash my creativity. Winter Park has an alpine slide that requires anyone over 45 inches to ride alone. My first impression was…obviously, they haven’t seen [...]

Yesterday I participated in the i heart faces photo walk in Dallas. 40 local photographers and bloggers showed up to tour the town with camera in hand. It was literally a paparazzi gang let loose on the unsuspecting streets of Dallas and its inhabitants. We roamed and clicked for hours. It was really fun to [...]

Public Restroom Tourapalooza 2010

January 26, 2010

Last week we took a road trip to Colorado. Yes, we like a LOT of other Texans think that Colorado should just be part of Texas (in fact I would be willing to negotiate a map fold arrangement where we cut out about 7 hours of the trip between DFW and Vail).  One of the [...]

Just Desserts

December 28, 2009

I am a big fan of dessert. Don’t even THINK of taking me out to eat and skipping the most important course. If I had to choose I would choose dessert over all the other courses.  It is that good. Blog-Stedman can take or leave dessert.  Leave dessert? Leave without having dessert? Obviously, opposites attract. [...]

It is back. I think. It is Monday Potluck… *Try to stay seated in your wildly applaudic state* And now for a little…er, longish story entitled “Do I need to be super sized?” Here is a little background: Blog-Stedman and I have always laughed at the state of rental cars in America after seeing that [...]

Vail Colorado bridge

A few weeks ago we were in the Vail, CO area.  I love summers in Vail.  There is nothing that isn’t breathtakingly beautiful from every angle.  It is really fun to take pictures there because it is hard to get a bad shot. Covered Bridge. Crow’s Nest. Cargo Net. Ship’s View. Random acts of wildflowers. [...]

Rhett attempting to feed ducks

Last week my two older boys were in a daily morning summer camp so it was just Rhett and I on the town.  On Wednesday we were meeting some friends at the park so we went a little early with a large bag of old bread to feed the ducks before play commenced. Quite honestly [...]
