Blog Tag, I was tagged.
I was tagged by Shawn Reeder a fantastic landscape photographer who is in this vast expanse of my photography network. I figure I will play along, why not I am sure you would like to know a little more about me anyway. I am supposed to list 8 little known things about myself. Here goes.
1. I was born at home in Santa Fe New Mexico in this house. The same woman who bought the house from my parents lives there today and it has been pretty much unchanged in 30 years. (My dad installed the little sky light bubbles)
2. My favorite place ever is Yellowstone National Park. I went there every summer for eight years when I was a kid. My dad worked there when he was in high school, as did my uncle and my grandmother worked there every summer until she turned 83. Good Ole Yellowstone.
I also have another little known fact regarding my relationship with Yellowstone, but that is a better story in person. Next time you see me ask me about it.
3. I am the proud owner of a 1963 VW Samba Bus. This was my fathers bus. Here you see it when Don and I rescued it from my Dad's back yard. It had been sitting for over 2 years after my dad died and we had to give it a better home.
This has been its home since 2005. My hope is to one of these days get it up and running again, that is not too much of a dream I just need to find my Dad's mechanic in Roswell, yes Roswell New Mexico. I also need to set aside the cash to fund its mini restoration.
4. I have been love with Photography since I can remember. I cracked this lens of my Dads when sliding down a natural water slide in Santa Fe, this is me inspecting the awesome crack down the middle of the lens.
5. I hitchhiked with my dad on multiple occasions when I was young. This is me with my pack in Yellowstone. Aren't I cute? I am still hoping that pack with surface one day.
Little bit of extra credit regarding the photo above, I still have that shirt. My dad saved everything.
6. I am a bicentennial baby and third generation New Mexican. I have some Indian in me as well, my Indian name is Running Deer.
7. I drove out to the east coast in the summer of 96 in my 1982 Mazda GLC Deluxe. That was a Good Little Car. It was also the first car my mom ever bought brand new. It got both me and my brother through college.
8. I can't stand water chestnuts. It is the only food that I have any textures problems with.
So I am tagging the following 8 people.

Joy what awesome stories! I love that you hitchhiked, and the pictures of you with the lens and backpack are awesome! New Mexico sure is a special place. I've been to some of my favorite hot springs in the west in the Jemez mountains.
