aye beybey

Hey baby.

I hope your morning is going well. 

Well, another day down. I am getting ready for bed trying to recollect my day. 

I was home for the majority of the day. It felt nice not to be rushed. However, I still had to go to Boulder today, as you know. It was a strange time to go in. I got there around 6:30. Gustavo, David, and Petra were out getting drinks when I got there, so I went and had dinner at my regular hot dog spot. It was a pleasant solitary dinner. I sat outside on the patio at a picnic table. There was a family next to me and they had a big fluffly grey and white chow chow. After I finished my dinner I went back to the museum. Gustavo arrived about 20 minutes after I did. Once he was there we prepared everything and started painting. The painting didn't take that long as I assumed, but we had to hang around to let the gallery air out a bit. While we waited we had a beer. We sat behind the museum and watched the lightning over Denver. It was quite a storm. Really dark clouds and consistant lightning. After we finished our beers we went back into the museum to clean up and take the tape up. The lines looked good. 

I dropped Gustavo off. He is staying with Ana Maria Hernando in north Boulder. On my way back to Denver, the horizon was flickering on and off with the lightning. By the time I had made it back to Denver the storm had moved past the city and was rolling onto the plains. I wish I was at home for that, I bet it was terrifying. 

This evening I hung around the house and did some work on the computer. Since you left I have been taking so many pictures. I want you to see what I see. It feels like good healthy practice. I want to go back to the race track to take some better photos. Today some guy saw that I had the camera and was like,"I need some publicity photos, can you do it? I need one in the club shot, that we could do on pearl street by a brick wall and one black and white portrait." He told me that a couple of girls had agreed to be in the photos to make him look like a playa :) Haha (: He approached me because I was trying to take a picture of the George Foreman grills he and his friends were using to cook their dinner with in the park. They had a whole kitchen plugged into the light pole. People are funny. Could you imagine me taking those pictures!?!

Well I suppose that is it for now my love. I miss you and hope you weren't too late to class. You gotta stop doing that, although I don't mind having you for the extra minutes :D 

I hope you are having a good morning, I am off to dream of seeing you this morning.

I love you my wife.

Your husband.


This is where I ate dinner tonight.





When I take pictures like this I feel like I should be a man in his forties that has picked up photography as a hobby.


So Boulder. Ugh.



This storm was amazing. 



Humanity at its best. These guys were geniuses, as good as Albert Einstein or Plato or any other dead white guy ;)

  1. Baby,

    Those first two photos are real good. You are becoming quite the photographer. I love feeling like I can share things through your eyes. You are such a careful and honest sense of sight.

    It sounds like you had an easy day at work. Drinkin beer, watching lightning. :) It sounds like everyone likes you there.

    Im in Claire Denis' class we just watched a short documentary she is working on about the Alukus and Djukas in French Guiana and this guy named Jean (can't remember his last name it starts with a B). He is illegally mining for gold. Its super interesting. Its interesting to hear a well known director talk about their work.

    I love you so much my husband, I can't wait to speak with you again.

    purrrr purrr purrrrr purrrr

    your wife
