34 years.

Lee + Sue on their wedding day. Somehow this seemed more appropriate than my father's favorite wedding night photo.

Life on the open road. Our daughter took her first trip to the Oregon Coast this week past while I was shooting. Major highlight was rocking out with the Colorblind Soldiers, led by my brother Jeremy. She is quite enamored of their music, which is good because they don't suck anymore.

Seriously, they are starting to sound pretty freaking good. The adventurous stripped-down rock&roll of Spoon coupled with occasional intervals into Muse bombast, and perhaps iced with the intense DIY of the Moldy Peaches.

Today, my parents have been married 34 years. Which is good. Because if they hadn't gotten hitched and spawned me, then our daughter wouldn't be here today. She's immensely fortunate to have them in her life, and enjoys expressing her love by spitting up and projectile-pooping on them.
