  • Buried Treasure

    I recently put a new machine together primarily to better facilitate photo processing. I have an external hard drive that I store all my photos on, and well… using a laptop for my main computer for the last 3 years, it’s not usually convenient to hook an external drive up to it, so photos get…

  • Whoah. It’s been almost a month since I posted. I took this picture over a month ago… It’s rained a lot in Utah the last few weeks, and for some reason when it rains a lot I don’t feel inspired to take pictures (although I have to admit to wishing I’d had a good vantage…

  • Addie’s First Birthday

    I’m sure there will be a plethora of Addie b-day photos coming on various sloanie blogs and facebook profiles, but here’s a couple that I captured yesterday as we celebrated Addie’s first birthday on Memorial Day. Hard to believe she’s been around for a year now… This might be my favorite image from the night,…

  • It doesn’t matter if you just bought a fresh Bentley!

    I always feel like I have to have an image when I post. This is of a 30″ figure of Batman that was given to me for Christmas of 2008. He resides in my cube at work– a silent guardian, a watchful protector (why haven’t I watched that movie again since it came out on…

  • 10 months

    A couple pictures for the day. Taken back in mid-March at Este’s when we were there for Kato’s birthday dinner. Addie turns 1 here in just a few weeks! Where does the time go? She’s already grown so much. I love how wild her hair is in this picture– it was like this for months…

  • Best of Both Worlds

    I’m in the middle of finishing some final projects, but this one made me laugh so I thought I’d share. First off, I love this place– Teriyaki Grill. I wish the one in Draper were still in business because it’d be within reasonable driving distance from work. It is the best fast food I’ve ever…

  • Dawn

    At times I have so many things going through my mind. I often want to spill them out onto the blog. (Today was one of those days, as I drove home from school pondering different dialogue I’d encountered throughout the day). Either way, I came across this quote a few days ago for the second…

  • Rainbow

    Shot of the sky yesterday as I drove home from work. Yes, just something to replace that big eye that’s been greeting you as you visit my blog =)

  • Random food-related post. Ok so it defeats the purpose of eating a banana as a healthy snack, but I’m eating a banana with some cadbury mini eggs and it’s pretty good, hehe. Anyone else enjoy bananas with chocolate?

  • You know you’re hard up for interesting things to blog about when your brain starts fabricating things in your sleep to write about. Problem is, when you wake up you realize none of it was real and half of it doesn’t make sense anyways. But if you were thinking “I’ll blog about this in the…

  • The Cafe Rio Phenomenon

    A Fajita Grilled Steak salad at Cafe Rio Of course this topic is only relevant to people who live in, may have lived in or visited Utah, as this chain is local, but it’s fascinating nonetheless. Cafe Rio is this Mexican grill that seems to be enormously popular in Utah. I use the word “phenomenon”…

  • Toasted

    Everyone has their toys– this BMW motorcycle is one of my dad’s. So I decided to watch Shawn’s Lacross games today as they were a couple of his last. His team won both games, by the way. In the process of watching the first game, which went from about 11am to 1pm, I managed to…

  • Had a nice change of pace today, spent a good chunk of my work day at Rivers at an Adobe seminar. I though it was going to be an InDesign seminar, but it turned out to be about the entire Adobe Creative Suite. So while they focused mainly on InDesign for the latter half of…

  • Hangin’ with Llew

    We were baffled by this sign. Who or what are they recruiting? So today I took off a half day of work to hang out with Llew in Salt Lake City. I mean, one must have their priorities, right? Slacking w/ Llew > work. Man, I never take vacations– I need to get out more.…
