Oddly I didn't snap to many photos in Yosemite. We stayed at our favorite campground (just outside the crazyness of the park) and avoided the crowded valley, opting instead for peaceful swimming holes. (Thanks Kristina!) As usual, reading and guitar playing ensued. It was just lovely.

*oh yeah! the bottom photo is by Ben. when we are reviewing photos and one comes up that he took, he gets very cute and proud.

And here is one of Manray looking real comfortable, cause it has been awhile.

The other weekend Carinna and I were at the swap meet, and she bought us some coordinated* inlay, turquoise rings. Aren't they the best? Excuse our dirty nails. Thanks Carinna!!!

*a step above flat out best friend matching, if you ask me

Speaking of interiors and stuff, I finally got some shelves hung up in the living room.

I am quite pleased.

Probably shoulda moved the lamp for the pic, but eh.

I *did* manage to move to ugly dog beds (bane of my existence) but then didn't end up choosing a photo that showed the ground. Geez.
