Looking Back On 2013

Well, it has been a while since I have had time to write my Blog.  2013 was a good year for me Photography wise.  In January I was able to shoot the Lake Havasu Balloon Festival as well as the VW Bus Show.   February I was able to take a lot of pictures at the Rock A Billy Reunion and the Winter Blast Pyrotechnic Firework Show.  In April I had the opportunity to visit the Boneyard Museum in Las Vegas and shoot lots of pictures of the old neon signs.  It is very cool.
In May we jumped in the RV and drove to Southern Arizona.  We visited the Organ Pipe National Monument  and I shot lots of pictures of the cactus and desert plants.  We then headed East to Benson Arizona to visit some friends.  We visited an old monastery and did day trips to Tombstone and Bisbee Arizona.  We then headed North and visited Sedona, Cottonwood and Montezuma's National Monument in Arizona.
 We then headed to Southern Utah to visit Moab which is so beautiful.  We toured Arches National Park and Canyonlands National Park all the while shooting lots of pictures.
Our next stop was in Longmont Colorado to visit friends and a cousin of mine..  We took a day and visited Estes Park and the Rocky Mountain National Park which was fun to shoot and explore.  We then headed to Minnesota to visit our family and friends there.  We attended the Back To The Fifties Car Show.  I was able to go out shoot with my Photo Buddy, Tina.  We shot photos in Lake City, Wabasha and Red Wing Minnesota.

We left Minnesota and headed West to see The Grand Tetons which are beautiful and a joy to shoot.  We made a stop at Mormon Row to shoot Moulton's barn with the Grand Tetons in the back ground.  We then headed East to Littleton and then Cripple Creek Colorado to visit some more friends and of course, I squeezed in some time to go out shooting.  Since we had burned up our travel budget we reluctantly headed for home.
I did a night shoot down at what we call the Channel which is where the historic London Bridge is.  In October some of our kids came to visit and we had a big party for my husband's 70th Birthday.  In December I did some shooting of the annual Boat Parade and the beautiful Christmas lights down by the Channel.  We took a couple of evenings to go out shooting some beautiful Christmas displays here in Lake Havasu City.
I hope you all have a great 2014 and remember to go out shooting every chance you get.
