YAY! I’ve done it! One of my photos has been published in a digital travel guide called Schmap. My photo has been featured on the marker for the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta. Even though my picture is one of many on the Balloon Fiesta marker it is really cool that mine was selected. The picture of mine that got featured is the one of the turtle with his hat on backwards. Schmap is compatible with the iPhone and iPod Touch too so it is available on the go, online or on your computer. Go check it out! This is so exciting for me. Thanks to the people at Schmap for selecting my photo.

They say “Cancer never sleeps and for 12 hours, neither will we” so we walk from 7pm to 7am as a team in order to celebrate survivors and remember those lost to cancer. I ended up walking 22.5 miles for the night around the track at The Grace Center and raised $200 for Zach’s Team and for cancer awareness and support.

The weather was wonderful and as the opening ceremonies got underway we thought we might see lots of rain. Instead, we had a few sprinkles for about 10 minutes or so and lots of rainBOWS.  It was soooo cool.  Read (more…)
