so Colorado.

Being a Coloradan, you would think I am accustomed to Black Diamond level ski trails and long hiking/biking trips—not the case.  I love granola...but I also love Cheetos.  And last time I went skiing I was the girl that ran into one of those flimsy aspens and had to physically take my skis off to get both legs on the same side of the tree.

Despite my lack of outdoorsy and athletic capabilities, however, since I've moved away, I desperately miss the mountains.  I guess they somehow kept me balanced seeing them to my west even out of my peripherals everyday.

So I got a camera—not an SLR by any means—but it will be the vessel in which I deliver my life to you through this blog.  Starting with home.  And my attempt to be a Coloradan with the following photos.

a blog without an iphone

So here is my first blog confession...I don't really have any cool pictures to share...I have seen some really neat blogs in which people upload stuff they're doing, stuff they like, people they're with, etc all via the help of a "smart phone" with special filters to hipster-fy their images and such. It's quick and simple because they can post instantly. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining--I eat that up. But my phone is anything but smart. (I call and text with the LG Cosmos seen below).

My camera (one of your average Kodak Easyshare snap n shoots) is malfunctioning and as for my phone...well I'm too cheap to even buy the ten dollar memory card so it can save pixel-y pictures to it's one-step-above-a-flip-phone intelligence.

I'm hoping to invest in a nice (maybe SLR?...probably not) camera in the near future.  And then maybe I'll be able to rank among those bloggers that I admire with their sepia tinged photos and polaroid frames. But until my bank account grows to possess that capability, this will continue to be a blog without an iphone.

So to my friends who are still t9-ing it like me --enjoy :)
