Pretty petals.

But I love going home and seeing my parents. Advert fail.

Then This Happened: Part 696

I still haven't gotten used to the fact that it starts to get dark at 4:30p these days. Ugh.

Then This Happened: Part 695

Straightened.

Then This Happened: Part 694

Candles are always nice.

Nightfall in New Mexico.

My holiday trip home was way too short. Thank goodness Christmas is right around the corner. That also means that the end of the year is near. Where did 2011 go?

Happy Thanksgiving!

Oban, Maker's Mark, a bird, and a pie. Happy Thanksgiving! Wish you were here?

Throw that dog a bone.

Morning cappuccino by Mom. She mentioned something about the cup being too big and too deep but I didn't care. It was warm, tasty, and it woke me up. I love being home.

A small collection in the kitchen.

It was love at first sight.

One of my favorites from one of the best nights ever.

Labonne.

I think I have a problem. I'm addicted to fruit bars.

Nice and neat.

It's pouring leaves outside.

Show-off.

When the lights go down.

Right at home.

The trees are on fire.

Morning light.

Another great one.

I'm growing to appreciate a good morning and all of its subtleties. The peace and quiet and all that early daylight. They're hard to beat.

This coming from a guy who's traditionally the biggest of night owls and has pulled more all nighters than he cares to admit. Productivity always came to me long after the sun went down but mornings are starting to win me over bit by bit.

Pretty quiet out on the water.

Nike Portland has a really great photograph of Bill Bowerman displayed across six touchscreen panels. The image of Bowerman fades in and out of a large mosaic of athlete and Nike brand photos and videos, all of which can be expanded or played with the touch of a finger. Pretty easy to spend a good half hour engrossed in the thing. It's pretty outstanding.
