post #1



                 hello, dear reader. welcome to my 'world'

                 as the pace of my life finally begins to slow for the first time in a rather long time,
                 [and just in time for the soon approaching sun-filled days of summer],
                 I feel it's high time I start to share glimpses of my life through this blog.
                 and so, without further ado, I give to you...

                 post #1.
                 after sitting at this computer for a rather long while, thinking about what I should type, I've
                 realized the only thing I can think about at present                  
                 is the future.
                 by the end of this week I'll be on a road-trip 
                 a road-trip to the mountains.
                 in a van.
                 with my family.
                 my journal.
                 my pen.
                 my camera.
                 my hiking boots.
                 we'll be gone for five days less than a fortnight.
                 in between my oohing and aahing of the picturesque scenery I hope to snap a few memories with                                   
                 my camera.
                 my next blog post will probably benefit from that.

                 the first photograph above was taken in an airplane as we flew through the golden clouds resting 
                 in the sky above my homestate, florida. it was a grand adventure. I hope to have many more like 
                 it.
                 the second photograph above was taken of me by my older sister, lauren, in an old bed-and-
                 breakfast by the sea.
