Ok, this is kind of narcissistic, but cool. I stole this from a co-worker's blog, but it's a really snazzy idea for a desktop backdrop. I thought I'd share the love.
Here's my mosaic:
1. Patty Griffin. This woman is THE woman. She is the woman I wish I could be, but humbly submit that I could not. She is the goddess of folk music. *Sigh*
2. Zion's National Park. Can't ever seem to get enough of this place. Heaven on earth.
3. Snowboarding is my cure to the winter blues. Nothing better than heading up to the slopes and leaving your worries behind you. Escapist? Yes. A sin? No.
4. The Book of Mormon has seriously transformed my life. I don't know who I would be without it. I love this book!
5. Chacos!!! The saddest part of the year is when it's just too cold and snowy to wear these beauties anymore. I heart my chacos.
6. Biggest weakness? Chocolate chip cookies. I can refuse all sweets. Ice cream and brownies ain't got no thang on me, but a chocolate chip cookie? No resistance.
7. The Ashton Memorial in Lancaster, England. I've decided that my heart will always pine for this place. There is no satisfaction.
8. Yes, I'm a cat person. And especially when you see kittens like this. I can't wait to be on old, crazy cat lady, playing my banjo on my front porch with cats swarming 'round my ankles and foam rollers in my hair.
9. This is not just a random picture of a guitar. This is a) John Mayer's gorgeous hands playing his favorite b) Fender Stratus Guitar. Two beauties; one great photo.
10. The Manchester Eye in Piccidilly Gardens, Manchester, England. Never rode it, but I sure did have some great conversations about the restored gospel in its shadow.
11. Missionaries for life! I think this guy should be our mascot. I mean, really, who doesn't loves a good ole sock puppet missionary preaching the gospel?
12. Stone Henge. I know, I know . . . I'm pretty obsessed with England.
13. This is a groovy photo of a train station in NYC. Train stations are by far some of the best places to people watch. I love analyzing people's shoes and determining what kind of people they are soley based on their shoe type.
14. India: the final frontier. My next globe trotting destination. I can't wait.
15. I found a new love in something old--vinyl records. There's something enchanting about crisp, crackling sound of records.
The end.
