Pic of the Day - August Roundup.

Santa Clara, CA - August was a very fun month this year.  We started off with a trip down to Southern California for Scott & Jaeny's wedding.  After the wedding, we spent some time visiting a few of my very favorite spots from my college days.  The rest of the time down there was spent running, literally, as Suwei was well into her training schedule for a marathon she's doing in November.  In mid August we hit the road for Colorado again to visit friends and family.  The trip included a stop at Spencer Hot Springs, a hike up to Hanging Lake near Glenwood Springs, and a bit of time up hanging out at our place up in Keystone.  We even managed to squeeze in a little side trip out to Moab to visit Jennifer and Brian and celebrate the grand re-opening of Brian's climbing shop.

Photo of the Day - July Roundup

Broomfield, CO - Yes, I know, July was quite a while ago.  We've been busy (stay tuned for the August Roundup).  Anyway, July proved to be quite challenging for the photo of the day project.   With my muse, Keira, in school three days a week and me either working on the repair of the shoulder or the resurrection of the job search, photography inspiration was at an all time low.  Luckily, there was John's Desolation Backpacking Trip / Peace Corps Mini Reunion and a family trip to Yosemite National Park to distract me from the monotony.

July also brought about the death of my Samsung Galaxy Nexus, with which most of these photos were taken to date.  It took a swim with me in Tenaya Lake when two feet of water suddenly turned into four.  I have since replaced it with a new S4 and hope there might be some improvement in the photos.

Here are the photos from July:
