Once Blind Photography


Chris came up here to hike around this last week with my friend Jason in Hells Canyon. If I remember correctly they hiked a total of 90 some odd miles in 4 days...Crazy! I was invited just over a month ago to go but I backed out right at the last minute, you I couldn't justify being here for a month to support raise and then going on a backpacking trip. Now there are a lot of excuses that I could have used that would have made myself feel better about it, but I came here to support raise. It was one of the hardest things to say no, because at the time the trip was going to be 160 miles!...that is something I have always wanted to do but...no such luck.

Anyways, I got to hang out with Chris the last 2 days here in Boise. We went to the Old State Pen and froze our butts off. It was so cold especially in the concrete buildings with no heating. We did get some good images. I got one that I hadn't gotten before. It was great having Chris be there to take pictures. It confirmed even more that Chris and I both will be working together in the future. I am excited about that. Chris is a great inspiration and photographer. I would like to show you some of his recent work but he is kind of like me in a way of getting images out to people. Jason is still waiting for backpacking pictures from a few years ago. Good Times.

All in All the last few days in Boise have been very beneficial. I love being able to meet up with people and dream with them. Chris and I are working toward a goal with our photos to share what God is doing in the Christian Community. I am really excited about what God has in store for us.

The picture is taken in 'Siberia' (solitary confinement) Kind of different then anything else I have gotten before.

See ya

  1. It's time for another update, my friend.
    Spring Break is in full swing up here in Northern Idaho. Nicole will be back in town tomorrow, and I'm looking forward to it. I know you haven't met her yet, but I still can't help but let you know about here a little here a little there.
    I hope that you're fund raising is going well.
    don't forget about HAC if you're in the Magic Valley... 733-9330
