AMZY have been long-time friends and also one of my favorite bands. Both live and recorded. I have photographed them both personally and professionally many times. Which is why I was so touched that they hired my 18yo son Dex – who is in college…
I love how things come together fortuitously. Recently, I was chatting with friends in the social media world about all the projects I have been doing - and want to do - around the house. A big one for this fall includes painting my bedroom - the first time it will be done in the 16 years we have owned this house - eeks. And the other was a massive cleanout of our garage that had been filled from floor to ceiling with leftovers of actually living in this space for 16 years. I had been pondering what to do with old paint, and my friends pointed me to PaintCare.
PaintCare is the organization that oversees the official paint recycling program in Colorado and eight other states across the U.S.
PaintCare’s goal is to teach people in Colorado to “Buy Right” - which means to buy the right amount of paint; to “Use it Up” - which means to find ways to use up leftover paint; and “Recycle the Rest” - to recycle unwanted paint.
There are more than 145 sites for Coloradans to recycle their paint.
Awesome! Where have you been all of my life?

I say this all the time... but Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. It's all about love and food, two of the best things in the world. And there used to be a time when I spent a big chunk of the long weekend addressing our Christmas…

Making me feel super old, this year is the 30th anniversary of the book Polar Express by Chris Van Allsburg. I knew of this author well before the movies, because my illustration teacher in college was a deep admirer. Which, if you do the math, puts us right in the era of Polar Express and Jumanji.
The 30th anniversary edition of The Polar Express reveals a new jacket design and expanded interior layout, includes a letter from Van Allsburg, downloadable audio read by Liam Neeson, plus a golden keepsake ornament.
I have three of these to giveaway, so enter via the Rafflecopter below!
I was able to catch up with my friends at AT&T in Denver right before I went away on vacation and they were kind enough to give me a nearly-wallet size charger to take with me to Costa Rica. This thing is so small and…
