A Time for Home

This year's post snowboard season plans included, NOT the giant grand finale end-of-the-season party trip to Mexico or Costa Rica or the DR, the trip my friend's and I've so often dreamt about...but never really had the funding or concrete "plans" to makes such ideas a reality. Rather, I booked an indefinite stay at the five star Chateau on beautiful Mountain Pine Drive. My own bedroom and bathroom, delicious, healthy, home-cooked meals, free internet, and weekend excursions into the city on demand. ;)

Throat and knee recovery was top priority. So was backing up my entire photo library. And, of course, finding a job. I was going to be busy. A different kind of busy.

Despite being glued to my computer for hours on end, I was able to make the most out mud season, vamping up my resume, catching up with old friends and hanging out with my padres--making up for months spent far away on the other side of the world.

Here are a few of the photo highlights from May, in no particular order.
