– december is here –


boy has this year blown by, it feels like the holiday season was just here. oh well. check out this house we winterized for a commercial i worked on recently. they chopped up these huge 400 lb chunks of ice and sprayed it all over the house and yard. it actually felt and looked like real snow, which was fun!

– when the snow melts –


i filmed the snow melting on our back deck after the recent snow storm. the camera went for 3 days and i put together this time-lapse piece from the footage.

– we’re planting a vegetable garden! –


ryan and i are beginning to plan our very first vegetable and herb garden. we’ve been composting for over a year and have planted a few vegetables here and there, but this summer we’ve got big plans. we carved out a sunny 16′ by 10′ spot in the middle of our backyard, found some helpful info on the uga center for urban agriculture website, and we’re off!

we need to do a bit more research, come up with a planting schedule, and finalize our vegetable and herb list based on our garden space; but here’s our wish list:

  • tomatoes
  • tomatillos
  • bell peppers
  • broccoli
  • onion
  • garlic
  • shallots
  • squash
  • zucchini
  • okra
  • radishes
  • asparagus
  • cucumbers
  • artichokes
  • blueberries
  • strawberries
  • watermelon
  • cantaloupe
  • corn
  • basil
  • rosemary
  • chives
  • mint
  • cilantro/coriander

we took some before photos and will post updates as the summer progresses. the garden will be under the blue tarp you see in the photos.

– one more snow day –


we had another snow day in atlanta! twice in a month is quite crazy for the south. gub and i tried to stay warm while enjoying the beautiful scenery. i ended up taking a ton of photos and filmed a time lapse of the snow storm.

– a three hour tour –


inspired by gob from arrested development, i got ryan a gift certificate to go on a segway tour of atlanta for valentines day in 2008. with the certificate expiring soon, we went ahead and booked our 10 am tour during the winter blast of 2010. we bundled ourselves up and headed out on a three hour tour…

after the initial awkwardness, the segways were pretty easy to operate and really fun! the smirk, smile or laugh on people’s faces as you whizzed by was pretty hilarious. we felt futuristic! although we wish it hadn’t been soooo cold, it was pretty fun to spend the morning exploring our own city on a weird motorized personal transporter.
