Ladies of Fort Wilderness

|| Music: Lucky Now--Ryan Adams ||

As promised, here are the lovely young women who make Fort Wilderness possible.

Fort runs on magic and jesus and the power of selfless volunteering.

And it just so happens that all of said volunteers are absolutely stunning, inside and out.
(Not to be too cheesey, but it's true.)

2012

Well, a new year....

2011 was a very interesting year. A lot happened. A lot of things are different than this time last year. Everyone's growing up. People are moving away. Dreams are big and daunting and begging to be chased.

I've seen a lot of changes this past year in my own life. I hope 2012 holds a lot of changes as well, but positive ones, proactive ones.

One thing I want for 2012 is to be more active on this site and challenge myself with the amount of time I spend taking photos and the continuality of it.

So, for 2012, I am going to update everyday with a new picture. I'm hoping this will stretch me.

Well Twenny Twelve, I'm listening.

Boys of Summer

Winter break. Lots of free time, and lots of wishing it were summer.

I went through a bunch of pictures from Fort. Here's some of the gents. ((Ladies of FW to come soon))

Civil Wars || 1knewb

Kaitlyn and I drove up to Milwaukee last April to see the Civil Wars at Turner Ballroom. Easily one of the best performances I've seen in a long time. And easily the best Tuesday night all of Spring semester. We got lost and were half an hour late, but somehow ended up right in front of the stage. 1knewb is my favorite concert buddy.

Breathe Owl Breathe 04/12

Went to see Breathe Owl Breathe last year with a bunch of freshman. Got to show them one of my favorite places  in Chicago: Schuba's. It's an old church turned bar and music venue.

Breathe Owl Breathe was a really fun show. And Rach was so superfan. We got a picture of her and the gang with the singer in the background. Classic.

Miltown 12/14

Spent just about half a day visiting the home of some of my favorite people. Got to see a pretty good number of the Milwaukee crowd, and got to (finally) go to the Milwaukee Art Museum, which I was really excited about despite the fact that the building is vaguely reminiscent of a whale...but let's not dwell on that.

Got to hang out with Tim and Soph and mess around in the museum.
