Having an assistant while shooting photos is invaluable, even if they just make sure the truck doesn’t get away:
At the end of an evening shooting, Scrappy anxiously waits to leave as the last bit of color sits on the horizon.

Christmas Beard – Week 12 – DONE!
Three months of beard have come and gone.
I’m certainly not looking like Santa Claus, but it did grow in a little better than last year. At least I didn’t have any bald spots this time around:
But no matter how nicely it grew in, it was time for it to go. So, the day after Christmas it began to chop it off, but I just couldn’t bring myself to do the whole thing. What do you think of my new look? Am I starting a trend?
Keep your eyes peeled, I think you’ll be seeing a lot of guys sporting the two-face look in the near future.
Okay, maybe I was just being stupid. I am indeed baby-faced once again.
Went for a hike after chipping it all off, and realized just how much insulation it was providing. My face was COLD! :)

Sometimes you just feel like you are facing an uphill battle:
One of many hills on the way to the top of Mt. Tritle. Cold and slippery.

With a bonus:
No big plans for Christmas here. Dinner with a few friends tonight. Dinner with mom and sis tomorrow. Maybe kick around out in the snow over the weekend.

Meandering slowly down a dirt road, a friend in the passenger seat and good music playing through the speakers. The morning light streams through the tall pine trees, and the feeling is complete. It is all that I could hope for in a moment:

Ummm… Wow
Sometimes there isn’t a happy ending.

Christmas Beard – Week 11
I’m in the final week! I do have to say that having the beard sure is nice while out hiking. Keeps the face warm.
I’m still planning on cutting it off though. :)

Flounder
From a journal entry a few months ago:
“I need to flounder, but not in a pool of self neglect. I need to flounder in the ocean of supposed reality. I need to feel the vastness of the world around me as I question life, not just the confines of my own self. This is why I need to leave on a trip, to toss myself out into the wilds in order to learn to feel the world. To pop this bubble of self protection which I have formed so thickly around myself.”

I jog down the trail. I’m racing the earth’s rotation as I try to get to a scenic spot before the sun dips below the horizon. As I crest a hill in the cold, covered in sweat I am rewarded:
Sunset behind the Copper Basin.

I hear the trickling sound of water. I come upon a winter oasis:
I also sprained my ankle, once again, getting here. Snow + Boulders = slippery.

Sunrise in Wickenburg. The sun illuminates the sky, the camp fire illuminates the Joshua Tree:
