I recently stumbled upon this prayer next to a drawing at the Cortez Cultural Center. I feel it encompasses everything I’ve learned to value in the past year. Enjoy. Continue reading “Walk in Beauty, A Navajo Prayer”

Fall and Winter
At the end of last summer I posted a short video with pictures set to music of my summer. I explained how making a commemorative slideshow at the end of each season is a little tradition I’ve had with myself since college. To see that post, click here.
I got lazy last fall and winter. But as lately I’ve found myself without television and internet and therefore much more time, I decided to combine the two seasons and keep my own tradition alive.
Enjoy.
El Camino
7/8/11
Today was a big day for me. I came to work early to use the internet and finally commit myself to doing something I’ve been wanting to do for a long time. I bought a plane ticket. To Spain. Continue reading “El Camino”

This post is a long time coming. Seriously, I’ve been meaning to write it forever. The words have been in my head so long, I have no idea how to start. Continue reading “Desert Flowers”
A Room of My Own
I just discovered the panorama feature on my camera (after owning it for 5 years. Go me!). I decided to experiment by taking photos of my room. Would you like to see what it looks like? Yes! Well here you go:
Not too bad for government housing, eh?
A Happy Anniversary
5/17/11
This won’t be posted for a while still I’m sure (I have no internet, television, or cell phone service in my canyon-bottom residence here at Mesa Verde), but I am writing this on May 17, 2011, the one year anniversary of my college graduation. Continue reading “A Happy Anniversary”
