Howdy! Two weeks ago I was able to drive down to see my grandparents in Slidell, Louisiana. For those who don't know where that is, it's a hop, skip, and a jump across Lake Pontchartrain from New Orleans. A lot like a suburb really. I always love going to visit them! It's relaxing[...]
Howdy! I love the sun, and I love the beach, and I love good company. That is why my trip to Galveston, Texas after finals (but before I moved back home) was fantastic! Of course, Island Boy came along with me! Part of the reason we decided to take a day trip to Galveston (other than it being only 2[...]

Last week my sister graduated with her Master's degree from her school up in Ohio. She lives about an hour from the Canadian border. After her graduation, we stopped by her house (we saw her cute cat!), and then headed on to the border. They hire very no-nonsense people for the bor[...]
The sun was sorta out today, so I drove to a local lake that is nearby to practice some photography. It was pretty fun over all! I had a few issues getting my F stop to be correct because of the constant changing light, but I think I finally got it worked out on a few photos! I also got[...]
Well for my birthday I bought a DSLR Canon T5i camera. During my time in Minnesota I realized that I really enjoy photography. I'm not very good at it yet, but hopefully now that I have a camera I can practice and get better! I went out to the ranch to see if I could get some photo[...]
