Southern Snow Day

Nashville, I'm still getting to know you and that's not easy when you're so random and unpredictable. Just last Saturday night I was out in a friends backyard wearing a cotton dress and eating a burger. I stocked up on Claritin because my spring allergies had already started affecting me, which was annoying but also somehow promising. And then today I wake up to my car covered in a sheet of ice and it's snowing?! What gives? I can't be too upset though. My dreams of shorts and chambray and pretty green hikes in the near future are now crushed, but this erratic forecast did provide me with a four day weekend and some nice scenery. I went out on a pretty gray hike and took photos, which was something I'd been itching to do for weeks but lacked subjects and inspiration. So, thanks Nashville, for the break from binge watching Broad City and drinking too much coffee. You're kinda weird, but I still like you.

Holy Coast

Our friend Paul and his band Courtesy Drop

Waxahatchee. The solo project of Katie Crutchfield from P.S. Eliot and Bad Banana

Pity Sex

Not great: The grainy quality of these photos. I'm still working out the kinks - I'm going to start with adjusting the image resolution on my camera and also by learning how to efficiently take photos indoors in low/mixed lighting. The quality however is leaps and bounds above that of my old Rebel and that makes me happy.

Great: Mustering up the courage to bring my camera to a show, and actually taking photos. I loved all of the bands that played tonight. I've been listening to Waxahatchee for the last week or so, just got into it recently. It was awesome to experience Katie live for the first time after years of loving her other bands. Pity Sex came highly recommended, but I have not been able to find their record. I should've bought it tonight because they ruled.

Greatest: Fun nights doing my favorite things in my new city. Brought 2012 to a rad end.
