Moving Across The Meadow

Who can't empathize with the pains of moving from location to location? It only mildly helps when the distance isn't too far, it's still moving regardless....You have to pack up literally everything, then theres a pile of randomness in the middle of the old room you used to frequent, you know- the stuff that's just been elusive and hiding in your room for however long. Well that piles still in my old room, and im not looking forward to cleaning that place....

...But anyways, first shot was the old place, 2nd shot is the new place. Last few weeks have been, well, challenging i guess, but not in a way i imagine people like to feel challenged. It was the uncertainty of where we were moving, costs, then the actual physical effort of moving was delayed and i literally spent last weekend just waiting for the go-ahead word, frustrating!

It seems (as it always does in hindsight) that things happen for a reason, and things like this are much better in the long run but (for lack of a more appropriate terminology) suck in the short run game. When we got booted from the last place because of the condo assosciation disliking my roomates both having dogs we thought we were screwed. Now we have an indoor hot tub room, and our dogs are welcomed there, so even though its more money a month, things seem to be going better....

I spent a little money for the bare essentials to get my turntables spinning in stereo again, and have them set up in our large living room. If those trees moved out of the way you would see the peak, but who knows with that photo. Honestly, I woke up this morning and went upstairs to make coffee, and the bluebird day that it was inspired me to finally take some photos. Clearly these werent planned shots- this shot is hazy because the shot before was from the hot tub room, and my lens got foggy....so more photos to come i guess....eventually

Another promising development for us up here in Big Sky is the incurring seasonal shift. Off-season is only, uhm, 2 weeks away? wow...so stuff will become even slower as far as people in the area, but thats also when we start getting some snow finally, and we've all been ready for awhile for that. Above was from a couple weeks ago- i believe it was the first snow id seen this fall (summer to some still!) and since then we've had dustings on the peaks around here almost every morning. It
melts by noon, but its still lovely to see white caps with green forests below.

I also turn 27 in a couple weeks here, which kinda just makes me feel old more than anything....
