"Gloria"

Sometimes it pays to leave the shooting agenda at home. Today that seemed to be the case for me here in Tacoma.

After school got out I headed down to the waterfront to scout some locations for a magazine shoot I'm working on. I stopped at the Maritime Museum and was checking out some old school boats when a voice from behind me inquired if I was with the media. I said yes because for the most part I usually am.

Ten minutes later I was on a boat being whisked off toward the Columbian Navy tall ship, "Gloria," that just happens to be in Tacoma over the weekend.

Apparently I was in the right place at the right time to be included in the Latino media’s chartered boat and two-hour on-board tour.

I left with new friends, fun photos, and a smile at such good fortune.

Enjoy!

Happy Anniversary to us

Joe and I celebrated our first anniversary last Sunday with a picnic at the beach where we were married in Steilacoom. We stopped at Trader Joe's to pick up fixings and noticed the corporate powers that be had the enviro-friendly bags made in our honor.

Enjoy!
