Jenna The Pyro

 Air-soft in the Dungeon

Nothing like a game of air-soft in the dungeon...Playing and shooting pictures in the complete 

dark of this old building is not for the faint of heart...Go gett'em pyro girl!

I don't usually put artwork up but this is something I made for my mom for mothers day.

Bug Season

Bug Swarm

The Wise One

 Hiawatha

Known as "the wise one" he sits atop the falls overlooking the park giant and out of times past.
A story of the life of an Ojibwe warrior named Hiawatha and his love, Minnehaha, 
which means “laughing waters”  for which this place is named.

See * Hiawatha; a poem, by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

Plain and Simple

While listening to all the chatter staring out at the last vestiges of winter, I realize that sometimes there isn't anything better than a cup A jo at a tiny family restaurant.  I may love my latte's but this cup really hit the spot!

Stripped

 Power Plant

Stripped down old buildings, waiting for a new purpose that may never come.

Luminaries

Luminaries 

If you ever have the chance to see it, you should go. The lighting of the luminaries at the Relay for Life is something that is profoundly simple, yet beautiful. Please remember to donate to your local chapters.

Underground

Underground

Hard for some people to imagine what being below is like...Looking up to the light of day instead being in it...

It cant always be flowers

 

Its all about flowers in the month of May but I thought this was a nice reminder of the simple beauty of green plants.

Moody Clouds

Well it was all about the moody clouds this Easter. But still had a great day with friends and family!

Reflections

 

At the Farm Marine, MN 2009

Reflections , At times you see them and they aren't yours. Other times they are yours and you cant see them.

Under Lock and Key

My Home Longmont, Co 2010

We all have them...keys to our lives, our homes, our cars and our work...keys to locks that protect us, and keep us from harm, but remember not to lock yourself up too tight or no one can get in...

Where lies the key to your heart, and soul?

Latte Please

Vic's Espresso Prospect, Co 2010

There is nothing yummier than a latte for breakfast, Whether its to drink with a friend or relax by yourself, its universally known and will always be a part of our world culture. Still picked by hand!! wow

Sunset

Macintosh Lake Longmont, CO

I think this is about the best place around to sit and watch the sunset. I love the reflections, Its just beautiful.
This is a place where my mind wanders and I feel free and happy.

Twilight

Old Grain Refinery Minneapolis, MN 2009

This is such a great view of Minneapolis. Sitting at the top of a building taking in the view...hearing the city and the silence all at the same time. Its beautiful at twilight watching all the lights blink on one by one.

Springtime

The swamp Marine, Mn Spring 2009

Its funny that sometimes the most beautiful things to see are right out your back door.

Lunar Solstace

Winter Solstace Longmont, Co 2010

It was a privilege to watch this total lunar eclipse on the winter solstice. 

A beautiful shared moment never to be repeated in my lifetime.
