Afternoon Ride

I biked up City Creek Canyon from my house today. It was amazing!!! I love how good I feel after riding up hills. I love my new road bike too. Scott (my new bike) and I got a good thing going on... this is the beginning of a great summer. I can feel it...

Surprise Marcus!!!

This weekend was the funnest weekend I have had in a long time.... Friday I went to that great Wye Oak show. Last night I got to attend the best surprise birthday party for Marcus. It was seriously the funnest house party I have ever been to. It was packed and everyone was soooo nice. I have never been to a party where people are not segregated into little groups, and where people want to get to know you and be new friends. Marcus had a really old 35 mm film camera that I got to play around with and document the evening. I was on call until midnight, but when the clock struck 12 Scotty made sure the bottle of Makers Mark touched sweet lips.... mmmmm.... And the group consensus is that I need me a pair of RayBans. I stole James's for a portion of the night. One of the best parts of the evening was the giant snowflakes that came pouring from the sky.... It was magic... Everyone had to go out on the porch and soak in the beauty.

Highlights of the Evening:

1. Christina's dancing. 2. Marcus and Scott are the sweetest people in the world. 3. Epic dance party and music 4. nice people 5. best looking people ever 6. meeting new friends

7. Whiskey 8. pecks for everyone! 9. kicking out the 70's wannabe's 10. snowflakes

.....Here are some really, really cute pictures.....

Q.O.D.

"No hurt survives for long without our help, she said & then she kissed me & sent me out to play again for the rest of my life."

The Callers

I also saw this opening band. The Callers. Really great band.

The girl had a killer voice box.

Wye Oak

I saw Wye Oak @ Kilby Court last night.

It was amazing.

I was sitting front row on a plastic box full of audio cables with the beautiful lead singer towering above me. I soaked up every little detail...the interplay between both band members, the cues, the feeding off of each other, the foot work, her fingers working that guitar magic.

Best show I have been to in a while.

Super intimate.

And I got to meet her afterwards (thanks to some encouragement from Ebay).

I love finding new bands.

...It is like you have the best little amazing secret in the world and this treasure is all yours for a little while....
