Let There Be Log!

I am never fully satisfied with the title of my posts. They always seem to be some cheesy pun or obscure line that I'm sure no one gets and I often think I would be happier just to do away with titles altogether. But I don't. And so here it is:

I'm recommitting myself to this blog. It was always supposed to be a log of my life with no real audience necessary, but I still felt the need to make my posts clever and felt as dissatisfied with my posts as I did their titles. But this isn't for some vast audience with judging eyes. It's for me! Just a log to remind myself of those trips, pictures, friends, and whatnot that I've enjoyed in my life.

I've been thinking specifically of the trips Erinn and I have gone on together and all the fun little bits and pieces that made those trips wonderful. I'd love to share those bits. From the day trip to the beach to our big trip to North Carolina, these are things I've enjoyed and would love to share on this log of my life.
And that's why we're even here to begin with: to share the many lives of Jules (myself).

Yosemite: Sep 12 - 13, 2011



     This trip marked the first time we actually camped in Yosemite. Normally we stay in Curry Village's tent cabins, but this time we were staying with family, and besides, we wanted to camp out in a real tent anyway. Much more fun!
     We made s'mores, cooked hot dogs, and kept a keen eye out for bears! Then in the morning we hopped on our bikes and toured the valley (Erinn and I rented ours from a place in Yosemite). Toward the end of the day a storm rolled in and threw some lightning around, but it wasn't dangerous, just fun to watch!
