The weatherman tried to scare us off, but it turned out to be a great day at the beach…for pictures at least! D was awesome. He was up for anything and I LOVED playing with my new lensbaby (a lens that makes the sort of dreamy/blurry pics). I did o…f course take a ton of great “yearbook” shots. But, these were my favorites 🙂
Last weekend I had a double header at Riverfront…and guess what…I FOUND the RIVER! Yep it is there. J and I had to go down some “wrong” paths…and we were a bit daunted by flying gnat like bugs…but we perservered. While J claimed to not really be a “wilderness” kinda a gal…she wasn’t going to let that stop us from getting some awesome pics! We had way to much fun, and I was very thankful for her boyfriend who was an excellent reflector holder…even if he did nearly have me jump out of my skin when he made a sound when I was walking in some tall grass and I thought something was gonna get me!
I was happy to be back in Riverfront Park with this family from So. Ca, who was up here visiting family. I LOVED the sweet interaction between them, and I ADORE the one with Mom and the kids…I want one just like it!
Who knew a trip to Sonoma State would feel more like an adventure hike in the jungle…and while through the eyes of a 3 year old this is likely, we really DID see a lot of crazy things. A turtle was hanging out on the path, quite a distance from the… pond. And we had ducks who insisted on getting in on the photos, and then there were attack crawdads! I almost lost a toe! All in all we had a lot of fun, and I rediscovered what a great place Sonoma State is for pics!
What an awesome place! I just loved working at Stokes Ranch in Windsor, its like stepping back in time! I had a great time there meeting up with my awesome friend S, and her *most* of her family!
The Stokes Ranch has a ton of great vintage cars, fire engines, a gas station. And an impressive oil can collection! Here is a super duper peek (its a big family 🙂
