ski poles, singing bowls, and rainy beach weekends

long time no post! what can i say, sometimes its hard to figure out what exactly would be interesting! but i thought it high time i post some pics from the last month or so! several weeks ago, patrice and i visited gracie and her roomate for some skiing fun at Blue Mountain in Palmerton, PA. we had such a great time! i rocked the pie piece/wedge alot that day, seeing as i hadnt skiied in...erm...about 10 years. its a toss up as to which was the most challenging, relearning how to ski or surviving the ski lift dismount with patrice :-D (which for the record was fall free!). grace was kind enough to allow us to stay in her dorm. she lives on a beautiful campus at Cedar Crest.

i also just finished taking a photography class. no masterpieces were created, but i enjoying refreshing some of the basics, and also learning a few photo shop tricks. eastern market serves as a great location to get some interesting shots! here are a few that i really liked :)




and certainly last but not least, i spent a wonderful bday weekend in va beach last weekend with my sweetheart and with my unc friends. we celebrated erin's bday and kara's vicariously :) although it rained, literally, for the entire weekend, we had a good time! it made my heart very happy to see my dear ones from near and far! cant wait for the next time!
