October 13, 2013

After a helluva summer and hiatus from this blog, I’m back on a rainy, flat Sunday afternoon. First off, here’s some of the pix that didnt make it into the June project files. Trying to take a decent photo everyday was such uplifting and fun thing to do, it’s not half as stressful as you […]
