Summer Slideshow

From the end of July through September, there have been so many little trips and gatherings that I wanted to put on my blog. The photos below are from various activities through the end of summer. I was able to accept an opportunity for a new job, a pivot from what I’ve been doing over 9 years and able to (hopefully) grow many more career benefiting qualities while applying my experience to help others. With the job change, I took a week off and visited family in the Bay Area, that’s where the park playground activities took place. We got to celebrate a birthday for our friend Molly in Malibu with almost all of the attendees wearing blue and walking out to Pt Dume. Mia’s college roommate Laura and her husband Shaun and their black lab met up with us for breakfast and some chill time in El Segundo at a park. I bought a used longboard designed in a way that I’ve been wanting for a long time, to re-learn surfing in the longboard, nose riding style. I got to go to Half Moon Bay and walk around town and the Ritz golf course with my mom as an escape from the summer heat inland. There was a quick trip to SLO and I finally tried some long-exposure beach shots. There was another special birthday for our friend Kait which was celebrated at a rental house in Carpenteria right on the sand. Then, for my first week of work at the new company, I got to travel to Denver to their headquarters. I was able to arrive Sunday afternoon and walked around downtown, which is super cool and photogenic with perfect summer heat-wave weather. As you can probably tell, there’s been a lot going on. Hope you enjoy the wrap up in pictures.
