Road Trip to Ohio (Part 3)

Bonjour, Y'all! Rudy and I at the eiffel tower in Paris! Texas, that is.

Lovely clouds after a storm. A big one. With lightening.

Road Trip to Ohio (Part 2)

On day 2 of our road trip, we decided to drive straight through from Flagstaff, Arizona, to Paris, Texas. A drive that took nearly 24 hours. (Remind me to never do that again). Rudy and I ended up parking in some Motel 6 lot and sleeping for an hour in the cab of the truck. Bleh.

Here is my new road trip style. (On account of all the wind).

Gatsby sleeping and Rudy driving, which pretty much sums up the entire trip.

Beautiful painted cliffs in New Mexico.

Road Trip to Ohio (Part 1)

While it is true that we are now in Ohio, and have made it through 5 long days of driving a massive Budget truck pulling our car across the country, I am going to take my time in sorting through pictures and sharing them.

Ye Olde Truck

Leaving Vista

Gatsby had to use this...

Who knew that Arizona was so beautiful? We made it to Flagstaff the first day.

Graduation!

Rudy graduated from UCSD a couple of weeks ago!
Now we are on to the next chapter of our lives together as Rudy starts on his PhD in Mathematics at Ohio State University.
I'm so proud of my man!

Goodbye Party Flowers

This is an old shot of some of the flowers from Rudy and my goodbye party.
I love the combination of the soft pink gray flowers next to the papery brighter ones.

I'm going to miss you old friend...

I was on craigslist looking for apartments in Columbus and I decided to see if our apartment in Vista was on the San Diego site... and it was... and it kinda broke my heart. It was Rudy and my first place ever together. And it was just so perfect and full of character and we made it ours. Thinking of someone else living there makes me a little sick to my stomach at the moment.

I know that we are moving on many wonderful times. I just didn't realize it would be this hard to let go. I can't help but think that I will never walk Gatsby down that wonderful street ever again.

Little artist's loft, you will be dearly missed.

Lucky Feathers on Etsy

Found these lucky feathers on etsy seller ThePaperApartment. I love them. I think they would be very nice on a christmas tree or just hanging around somewhere.

Bicycle Art-How Cool is This!

A Photographer I love

I just came across the beautiful photography of Akihiro Furuta. You can see his work here.

I love his pictures of everyday life with his small family. I hope that one day my family will be documented in such beautiful way.

An Ink Drawing and a Bicycle

Here is my lovely Jeunet bicycle. She is yellow and I love her. This week I am making a pledge to ride her to the school I teach art at every day...as long as it doesn't rain.
