Crossfox

My friends' band, Crossfox, had their cd release show, so I flew in to catch it. For an idea, check out myspace.com/crossfox


I was put to work, as the merch-man (merchandise), giving away pins and stickers, and selling cds and tshirts. Sweet pizza box selling station.

the night gets weirder...

these guys are good- T Tuck on the drums.

My niece is the cutest little cutey-batootie in the world!

little maria and uncle thomas


and auntie rose

let's go for a drive!

and a hike in the snow (I love how my camera splices two photos together, allowing me to get in on the action)

I have been attending "baby boot camp"- learning to feed and care for the little one, and yes, I even get to change diapers, oh boy! She is a sweetie...

white stuff

On a day of exploring, we cruised out to White Sands for a walk in the blinding dunes- hot and dry.

Then we continued up towards Cloudcroft, and hiked through a different kind of white stuff- slippery in the sandals.

Evergreen forests, snow, fall colored trees, I love the diversity...

Slovaks in the desert...

The desert is to large unless you have panorama- these are mountains behind my grandparents' house

My grandpa's sweet jeep, baja-ing in the desert


We spent a week in New Mexico with my grandparents, playing cards, eating candy, sitting on the porch for hours of warm, dry sunshine. Here we are making Pierogies, a traditional Slovak meal (my grandparents are both full blood Slovakian).
