| My sisters and I drove up to Julian with Kyle and Andrew on Saturday. We walked around lake Cuyamaca, and had fun in the little bit of snow that came down unexpectedly. I wore Sami's too-big-for-me hoodie, and she wore Andrew's. Kyle and Ella were a bit crazier, wearing no jackets at all. :D It was a very good day. (Almost all pictures of me were taken by Sami. She made me post them. :P) |
 |
| I had to get creative with my position to get this shot. It may or may not have included mud. |
 |
Notice Andrew and Sami in the background. Pretty sure they thought they were flying. |
 |
| Ella and Kyle, living life on the edge. |
 |
| She kept telling me to stare. "Hi, I'm Madalynn. I'm a creepy snow maiden. Oh, and I'm about to kill you."  |
 |
| Classic Andrew and Sami. :D :D |
 |
| This is also about as classic as it gets. ;) |
 |
| Kyle told me I should take pictures of these Canadian Geese. At first I thought I was going to scare them away. They held their ground. Then I thought that they might attack me. They did neither; instead, they ignored my existence altogether. I was halfway offended. :P |

| You know what hurts? I'll tell you what hurts: taking pictures in the snow. This hit me for the first time on Saturday, the only time I've ever shot when it was that cold. Flipping the on and off switch is like getting your finger smashed with an 80 pound rock. And then you have to pry your hand off your camera, and make sure it's still attached to your wrist. Ouch. So to let you in on how crazy I am, I'll tell you what I did to get this post up. First, I did basic edits in Lightroom. Then I uploaded my favorites (212 of them, out of 1078) to Skydrive. Then I went through all my favorites in Skydrive on my iPod touch, and individually downloaded my favorite favorites. After I got them all in a folder on my touch, I opened them individually in Faded (an editing app) and saved them after I edited them. Then I uploaded them from my touch to a different skydrive folder, and downloaded that folder onto my computer. I opened those files in Picasa, and uploaded them to G+, and from there I put them on Blogger. Maybe this is the reason I rarely post on my blog. I make it so hard for myself. :P --- What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can beagainst us? He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? (Romans 8:31-32, ESV) |
