iowagirl Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Our daughter is in a play, and they had their performance for the elementary school today. Tomorrow/Saturday/Sunday are the performances for the public. I've seen it many times b/c I went to all the rehearsals but I'm still excited to see it for "real". She has a pretty main part too!

Wedge Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Sorry for the huge pictures, but yesterday we spent the day in NYC and saw the Rockefeller Center tree and saw an amazing Broadway show. I'm not a big Christmas guy but I'll admit there's nothing like NYC during the holidays. slayer9019, Graeme, Mark Bee and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/2521-post-awesome-things-you-have-been-doing-recently/?page=32#findComment-81231 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cltattooing Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 I am a stout appreciator of the holiday season. My house smells awesome, the shop has christmas lights up, and we're getting a little tree! I have also just put an end to a really unhealthy relationship that I've been engaging for like 6 years, and while part of me is sad, the bigger part is like FUCK YEAH, I'M FREEEEE TrixieFaux, iowagirl, Delicious and 11 others 14 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/2521-post-awesome-things-you-have-been-doing-recently/?page=32#findComment-81235 Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydenRose Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 @Wedge, very nice. I've lived NYC adjacent for so many years now and have never seen the tree. Did you see Phantom? My step-mother-in-law has been playing violin for that show for some ridiculous amount of years. cltattooing 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/2521-post-awesome-things-you-have-been-doing-recently/?page=32#findComment-81255 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pleadco Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Getting back from our road trip down to Cali today. Stopped by Off the Map northwest on the way up through Oregon just to sight-see. Super nice shop/people. If the stars align I'll be headed back down in august to get a piece from Henrik Grysbjerg who will be guesting for a few days. Crossing my fingers for a busy tattoo year!

slayer9019 Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Been pretty busy recently. Driving cross country to California with my friend since he is moving there. Gunna hit Vegas for sure. Taking the jeep out for a few days in the pine barrens for camping and off-roading. Possibly picking up a 1969 CJ5 and breaking out the new millermatic to weld up some fun stuff.

suburbanxcore Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Slowly getting back into running after a foot injury has had me off it for months.

Boiled Dove Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 I had really worked on getting fit in 2012 and it culminated in me completing a Tough Mudder that October. then the holidays came and I got out of the habit and never really could stay consistent in 2013. So now I'm trying to commit to doing more in 2014 and have completed my first day of a 30 burpies for 30 days challenge. That should get me back on track.

I got into the best shape of my life in last 2012/early 2013 and was setting PRs at every distance from 5k to the marathon.

missmaralaena Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Oh I am sort of jealous of you fitness dedicated folks. The holidays totally sucked that away from me and into piles of homemade cookies that are still circulating through my house. I'm not even sure how that's possible. Too many... That being said, I did just get back from traveling in Israel. Woo! That's the view of the Dead Sea, looking towards Jordan from the top of Masada.

irezumi Posted January 20, 2014 Author Share Posted January 20, 2014 It's been a little bit since I posted in here. Loving everything about my new surroundings. Great friends, great shop, healthy living, 20 minutes from any one of three mountain trails and 30 minutes from 3 more. Morning hike/runs every day at mentioned trails and snowboarding as much as possible. Getting the snowmobiles and trailer ready to go for next week. Full moon sunrise panoramas are my new monthly mission December January I have a favorite little tree friend that I see every hike on Eagle Wind Trail. An awesome name, and named so for the Golden Eagle nests right on the crest of the ridge. One of the other things I picked up at the deVita show [/img] Being responsible by making sure to have fun Multiple tatshop bro birthday party/shred at Vail, with the Feuerzangenbowle. Yeah, wiki that. Feuerzangenbowle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia For some the ceremony is more important than the drink itself, celebrating the gathering of friends and conveying a notion of Gemütlichkeit. Epic sunrises/sunsets - - - Updated - - - A really cool art show I went to at the Botanical Gardens in the Bronx; at least 50 or 60 landmark NYC buildings and houses made of nothing but twigs, acorns, bark, pine cones, tree resin, etc. Only the glue is man made. Oh and it has whatever large scale trains going all through it. I was blown away. ^the original Penn Station, for those of you non-New Yorkers. The size of these things are deceiving in the pics, they're huge. The little lighthouse under the GW bridge Guggenheim - - - Updated - - - damn 20 pic limit - - - Updated - - - When someone posts something, a word or whatever, I'll be able to show the other train show pics.

Graeme Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 @irezumi Those sculptures are so cool. Looking at the New York Botanical Garden website, it seems like this is an annual thing? I'll have to get down for it at some point...if the King's Ave de Vita thing is an annual thing as well maybe I could go down and do both on the same trip. Those sculptures remind me of a topiary exhibit the Montreal Botanical Gardens had this past summer. I thought it was super amazing to see this stunning examples of this art form that I only vaguely knew existed. Here are some pictures from it: The pictures don't really get the scale of them, the way they move in the breeze and fit in the landscape, but it was pretty incredible stuff. Sometimes people do some really fucking cool things.
