Cuddyer's Got Skills

And no, I don't just mean baseball. I mean photography. A friend sent me the link to Michael Cuddyer's Flickr. He has been taking photographs of the various stadiums the Twins have played at on the road this season. They were taken with a Canon 60D.

My dream summer: to follow the Twins around for a whole season, going to at least one game of every series. And of course, taking documenting the whole thing through photography. Until I can afford to do so, I will keep dreaming. 

Tuesday Tunes: Summer Jams

A few songs that have been playing a lot on my iPod.

Matt Nathanson's new album, Modern Love, is great. Check it out. 

This has also been on the College World Series commercials. Just realized that a couple minutes ago.

I posted another one of their songs, Barton Hallow, a couple weeks ago. Listen to it here.

Now back to watching Game 2 of the College World Series. I love baseball. 

Red Lake Falls

Frog that just about met its end on the trails due to being accidentally stepped on. 

Now this is summer.

Lady Slippers.

Photos from a 3 hour hike on Saturday around Red Lake Falls. Gorgeous, humid day.

American Muscle

Ever since I was young, I have had a love for muscle cars. Probably because of my Pa and movies like Gone in 60 Seconds and the first Fast and the Furious. I saw this gorgeous Chevrolet Malibu in the WalMart parking lot. Gorgeous.

Foods: Summer Salads

I've got a couple of super simple and delicious salads that I've made in the past couple weeks. I thought I would share them!

I've been trying to eat more fresh veggies...

Thank you Real Simple for the Citrus Shrimp Salad. Good stuff. I forgot the pumpkin seeds so I was going to use sunflower seeds instead. And then I forgot to put them on. I also through on some red pepper flakes for a kick.

I'm playing little Miss Susie Homemaker tonight. I'm on a cleaning spree and making these. Now onto cleaning my car. It's a disaster.

Design Works of Jason Munn

Discovered this on Fubiz and these posters are too good not to share. They are by Jason Munn and are screen printed. (Which makes them even more great.)

These make me want to be creative and just design, design, design. 

Side Note:

Speaking of design Marlon has started a new and improved blog called Design Your World. We have been chatting this evening about getting back on track with our creative selves. I start next week. I have a horrible habit of starting projects and slowly abandoning them. (ie. I have about 5 different graphic design projects I've started sitting in my graphic design folder on my computer that have been gathering technological dust...They shall be revived soon...) I miss having hardcore deadlines. I think it drives my creative energy more. 

So, like I said, starting next week, new project lifestyle change to incorporate more creativity into my life. Just like my lifestyle change to start eating more healthy and being outside doing active things. Although, it's been raining almost none stop which ruins the routine a bit...
