19 / I Remember My First Real Hike [Holga]
It was the Summer of ’09, I was with Luisa, and we were at Rocky Mountain National Park (Colorado). In this photo we were about half-way there, going up a trail with a series of the most beautiful frozen lakes you can imagine. By the end of the day we were nearly caught in a […]

Here’s an article in Scientific American that suggests thinking about (or actually) falling in love makes one more creative. If […]

18 / I Remember When I Didn’t Drag My Feet As Much
Once upon a time, I was a blogger who ran faster with her posts. As in, I posted more often and didn’t drag my feet as much.

17/ I Remember Only Observing Heartbreaks
For a variety of reasons of which I will not spin out here, I have never experienced the heartbreak of a painful breakup. I have only observed the heartbreaks of others’, a stance that is still painful for the other, but still admittedly detached. I do not understand, therefore, why all of my favorites songs […]

16/ I Remember Praying for a Community House in East LA
We are still waiting. But we pray the same as the day we waited on the abandoned porch of 540. I heart Restore LA.

Lunchtime Spam
I have gone missing. But oh, I am back. For this lunchtime break, I give you the best from my Spam comments on WordPress. Barack Obama? The September / Remember series hiatus will soon round itself out. With many Holgas.

Ha Finito
It is finished. At precisely 11:59pm and 44sec Pacific Standard Time I turned in my very last paper for Fuller. I am now resting in Colorado with sister Darrelle and doing work for clients from here. I heart you, interwebs. Actually right now I’m at a little club waiting for one of D’s rocker friends […]

15/ I Remember Lake Champion’s Housekeeping Crew ’03
I remember moving my little self over to Portugal with Jane in April 2003, and then me flying back to New York only 3 months later to be a Workcrew boss at Young Life’s Lake Champion. That was a hard month for me, and I was caught in between worlds. Nevertheless, we had the most […]

14/ I Remember When La Plata Was Almost Killed By A Tornado
I loved that water-tower. The category-4 tornado that cut through my hometown was scary. I remember driving down from college in 2002 to find little La Plata looking like a total war zone.

13/ I Remember When My Brother Was Still Little
I remember when he was just a 3 year old running around the Baltimore Harbor with me. Anthony is still my little brother but he is officially now taller than I am. And he hits the golf ball a sweet mile!

12/ I Remember My 1st Day in Seattle
We took the ferry with our Holgas from Whidbey Island. I’d escaped to the quiet island after a most insane finals mayhem. Trevor is like a brother to me, and I loved our date in Seattle. We took the shot that every city-child must take. You know. And again I lament that my Holga […]
