is the weekend over already?

Spent a long weekend in my favorite place, Joshua Tree National Park. Had a great time with the boy and the pup. Photos are on their way but in the meantime here are some Hipstamatic shots Warren took of me and Fidel running into some trouble with the law in Pioneertown.

arctic adventures

For three weeks in July and August, Warren was up in Alaska shooting. Of course I was insanely jealous because I have had an unrequited love for Alaska for years, which was mostly sparked by seeing the incredible photographs taken by Cory Arnold. Warren decided that I should come up for a long weekend when he had some time off, so I did. The trip was very bittersweet because my time was limited. It was like a taste test of Alaska, and I will definitely be heading back for a longer adventure in the future.

belated birthday weekend

For my 29th birthday I wanted to get all of my nearest and dearest friends out of LA. Being a desert girl who loves nothing more than swimming pools, sunshine and 110 degree weather, what better place than Palm Springs? We had a fantastic time, stayed at the Ace Hotel, drank summer cocktails and thoroughly enjoyed being in the company of good friends. (I also took my first ride on the new bike!)

More photos to come...
