We’re up in the mountains for a weekend away to celebrate Chris’ birthday. Today, we took a quick day trip to a nearby town that has a little boardwalk on the lake. We found the boardwalk and all the carnival rides, but we also found it all boarded up for the winter. I think [...]

Since I didn’t get a Spring shot yesterday on the vernal equinox, I decided today to take a trip on my lunch break around the grounds of the Gamble House, a beautifully restored Greene & Greene Craftsman home near where I work.
