Camping

Kathy — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 20:42:39 +0000

I just found out that I love camping… in a cabin. For years I grew up going camping in a pop-up camper every summer, and while I liked it as a kid, as an adult I have grown to love the comforts of a private bathroom, shower, and a bed. Couple of pictures from our trip.

Debi Treloar did the photography for Eat Drink Live, which I’ve been looking into getting. Her photos are calm, and her subject matter reminds me a little bit of Ngoc Minh Ngo (who I love).

I really like these images by Peter Granser, but if you have a chance, check out his website… he does some really amazing portraits of Alzheimer’s patients that are both startlingly-sad and beautiful.

Pleasant photos by Thayer Allison Gowdy, who was the photographer for Lena Corwin’s new book Printing by Hand.

I love seeing boots and shoes next to doors… not sure why, think it probably has to do with liking places that feel lived in and warm.

Holga Holga

Since today is the day my holga should arrive, I am completely inspired by these shots by photographer José Moreira. These are from two different series of his, but all taken with a holga.

Patio

I am officially burned out on the house, and right now, all stuff house related, but we have one more project to do this weekend before we are officially taking the summer off (which in six years of rehabbing, has never happened). The last project is to landscape the backyard and to fix the patchy-grass look we have going now. For the past few weeks we have been working on the back patio which is now finished, so all that’s left for this year is to plant and maybe have someone build a back porch.

The concrete pad and footings are where the back porch/stairs will rest on, so those will eventually be covered (yeah!). This brick was salvaged from our backyard and gangway, and the stone edges are old window sills we found. Nathan’s five-month stint as a stone-mason really paid off! :)

Frame

I had been wanting a bulletin board for a while, but didn’t like the ones in the store, so I found an old plaster frame (was in the house when we bought it), painted it, and attached a piece of cork board for the back… semi-instant bulletin board!
