I've really been enjoying my summer over the past weeks. Been super nice to feel the heat again and get into some summer adventures. But there comes a time every season that is special for all skiers and that's teaser time. So far TGR, Level 1 and MSP have released their teasers and I hate to...
I recently had the opportunity to visit the UK back in April for a feature in Powder Magazine. We were shooting skiing of all things in the UK! It was quite the epic journey, but that’s not what this is about. While we were in Edinburgh shooting at the Midlothian Ski Centre dryslope hill...
For Day 17 of 30 Days Of AWESOME! I chose to make a tank-top from scratch using new sewing techniques.
I've been sewing for some time now, but have only mastered the art of remaking/restyling already made clothing. I can also make simple things such as neck warmers, pillow cases, curtains etc...
For the 16th day of 30 Days Of AWESOME! I made pancakes... gluten-free, egg-free pancakes... gluten-free, egg-free BANANA pancakes. Yummmmm
I eat banana pancakes at least once a week with my boyfriend Reid Persing. He makes the best hotcakes around! On this particular day however, I was...
For our last day in Northern California we ventured into Tall Trees Grove. Tall Trees Grove is best known as the location of the Libbey Tree, which at one time was the world's tallest known living thing.
Taller trees have since been found, but they are kept secret making the Libbey Tree...
Following our never ending search of the mysterious dreamcatchers in the trees, Al, Danny, and I decided to check out Fern Canyon. Al informed us that Steven Speilberg chose this location to film Jurrasic Park 2 and I decided that if Avatar were real, Fern Canyon might be somewhere in Pandora...
After checking out the beaches around Humboldt, Al gave us a quick tour of the town. We went to the local farmers market and then went hunted for the dream catchers in the trees.
The dreamcatchers are woven between redwoods with climbing rope. They are out of sight from the ground looking up...
For Day 15 of 30 Days Of AWESOME! I went to the Utah Arts Festival. There was music, food, and crafts made by local artists. It was a great way to spend a sunny Sunday!
Riding your bike got you a 20% discount on your entrance fee. There was a bike valet, super AWESOME!
Here are a few of my...
Planking is an internet phenomena that came from Australia. It has spread like wildfire, and now people all over the world are doing it. They even have a "Planking Association." I thought I'd get in on the craze for my Day 14 of "30 Days Of AWESOME!"
Below is a video explaining Planking and the...
Got a chance to ski two days at hood over my break in between spring and summer quarter. This is the footy from the second day, I was surprised at how sore I was from the first day! I guess school made me fat and stuff.
Hello All, and apologies for my belated blogging. I was camping in the woods outside of Eugene, OR for a week with no Internet. I will be posting day 5-13 of AWESOME! soon. Cheers,Ang
One of the added benefits of shooting with Byron Wells is since he’s from New Zealand and their ski magazines come out in June I get to see my photos in print a lot earlier than waiting 6 months for the photos to run in the ski magazines up in the Northern Hemisphere. This year is no different...
After a few hours drive from Shasta Lake, Danny and I arrived in Humboldt. We were pretty tired from camping, but our amazing host, Al, was eager to show us around. He took us to a place called Sharps Point with amazing panoramic views.
We walked along the beach for a while then hiked up this...
While the Tahoe weather was still flirting with winter, a group of friends and I decided to head up to Shasta a couple of weeks ago to get some sun. You can see snow covered Mt. Shasta in the photo above.
We camped out for a couple of nights and enjoyed a mini vacation from Tahoe. It's tough...
In celebration of the five month mark since Danny's injury we headed over to D.L. Bliss for a mellow hike by the lake. We also made the video posted below which pretty much sums up our day, but I thought I would share some photos as well. Enjoy.
Danny's recovery has been exceeding expectations. He's started his own business called Sticker Pack. If you need any type of sticker head to www.stickerpack.com to get a quote.
Sticker Pack's most recent order by TahoeMade Attire is below. Check it out!
The technology has been around for a bit now but before it was a pay feature. Google of course has changed that by acquiring the image recognition software to match your image to what Google finds on it’s search engines. Also, it’s really simple and easy. I’m sure it has a lot of bugs to...
It’s been a long time since I’ve posted any weddings, I just haven’t gotten around to it. Those things are a lot of work and I was done working on them! Anyhoo, Jeff & Leslie were married with a very small ceremony at the Capilano Suspension Bridge Park in North Vancouver, BC, Canada. The...
Good morning, and welcome to another day of 30 Days Of AWESOME!
