Sometimes...

working on a Saturday is quite lovely.

Apple Picking

This is what happens when you go with some friends to New Hampshire for the weekend.. and it takes you a long time to get there so you are really tired and everything seems really funny the next day...

We went to an orchard to go apple picking, and we came across this ladder laying down. I am not really sure who suggested it first, but I do recall the statement being made. "Hey that looks like something that would happen to Gaby apple picking. Gaby go act like you fell with that ladder."



And for some reason this was really logical to me.. and so I did it.. lol There are so many gems about this video. It is kind of hard to hear at the begging of the video but I realize how ridiculous I am and start laughing and then realize people are coming and I should be embarrassed.. so I say "No. We're done." Also notice how I hurt my foot getting up from the fake fall... Weeks later this still just brightens my day :)

Happy Halloween

October in Wisconsin

I have been neglecting my blog as of late. I have been in WI on press working on the holiday catalog for work. This trip usually takes about a week.... but this time I was gone much longer. I spent a total of 15 days there. As much as I hated being away from my life for that long, there were a few upsides. One of which is Devils Lake. I know I have written and even posted pictures from here before, but I can not help myself. It was beautiful and I had some lovely moments of inspiration and just thoroughly living in the moment. My favorite was a run through a field on an overcast morning that halfway through it started raining. It was nice to have some time in the Midwest for the fall.

I think this might be a record for me on how many pictures I am posting... but I just could not narrow it down! Enjoy :)

What a week it has been...

Thanks Rosie for this amazing image (and all the others on your site). I could not help but laugh and sigh as I related to so many of them.

Labor Day Run

This year for Labor day I went on a nice long run. (after I had done a cardio, boxing, core workout video) I would give myself two thumbs up... if I could lift up my thumbs ;)

Here are just some nice snaps from along the Hudson... really a pretty day out!

p.s. since the storm last week the water has looked pretty dirty.. and it kind of shows in the second shot.

dreaming in shades of grey

and for those of you who said you only dream in b&w...
