I loved last year’s trip to Iceland for so many reasons, but right now, I’m thankful for what l learned about layering clothing to stay warm while doing outside holiday decorating.

While hiking in #Sedona, AZ, this guy suddenly ran onto the trail and almost got stepped on. We left him safe and alive after taking a few photos.

I caught the northern lights outside our house earlier this evening.

Some trees in the foreground, but the night sky above them has pink and green coloring from the northern lights.

While walking through the trails in Sedona, I noticed so many pretty little plants and flowers when I could tear my eyes from the gorgeous landscape. This one had some thorns, so it was hard to get a close shot.

A small purple flower surrounded by slim branches and tiny leaves. There are some thorns visible on some of the branches. The ground is visible in the background, covered in older brown leaves.

Had a favorite music artist favorite my comment on their post this morning, and I have to admit that it made my whole day.

Another image from our #Arizona trip showing off the incredible landscapes in #Sedona. I could not get over how beautiful those red cliffs are against the blue sky.

#photography #az #landscape #landscapephotography #outdoors
A shot of the Sedona, Arizona landscape showing some wispy grass and rocks with a path cutting through, and in the background there are larger trees, and still farther back are large red cliffs. The sky is blue with large fluffy white clouds.

On this final day of #adobemax, I have thoughts. Most of what I’ve attended have been full of good info, best practices, and new feature highlights. But the topic of AI has been prevalent and it’s clear that even some of the session leads aren’t into it.

The hotel I’m staying in has such insane water pressure, I was afraid to wash my face in case I lost an eye. I’m not even kidding.

Watercolor doodle of a butterfly standing up on two legs like a human and smoking a cigarette. It says, make shitty art if you want to, who's going to stop you?

At the end of our Fay Canyon hike, there was a spot to rest while looking up at the scenery and red rocks. This man was there for a while, quietly taking it all in.

Had one of those days where the back to back meetings were relentless, every spare minute was filled with someone asking if I had a minute, and even my lunch was interrupted to have another impromptu meeting.

I RAN from that building at 5pm 🏃‍♀️

The #ITdepartment at work has blocked me from seeing my meeting calendar in a phone widget, access to the internet except through one browser, which also stops a lot of applications and tools from working. Great job, guys! It’s so secure, I can’t even do my job.

People: “How’d you pull that muscle in your shoulder? Extreme sports? Fighting a bear? Saving a child from a burning building?”

Me: “I sat too still with my head turned slightly to the left for a half hour meeting.”

This is the construction just outside of my neighborhood, and I need to share my pain with you. I have to drive through this if I want to go anywhere.

Two orange construction signs next to each other. One says “left lane closed ahead” and the other says “right lane closed ahead”.

We went hiking in #Sedona, AZ. Specifically, we did Fay Canyon, and the view at the end was pretty great.

My very first photo taken on the camera in Arizona. We took the scenic route up 89a (terrifying but fun) over Mingus Mountain, and then down into Jerome, AZ. Just before Jerome, there is a scenic overlook where you can unclench your jaw. I highly recommend it : )

Spent a few days visiting Jerome, Arizona (and surrounding areas) and it was a great trip. I’ll share the non-phone pics once I go through them. It was a beautiful place with kind people.

Scenic view of Sedona, Arizona through the mountains above Jerome. You can see the layered red rocks and cliffs with the green Verde Valley just in front. The view from the small town of Jerome, Arizona looking towards Sedona. There is an historic mansion in the shot. A photo of the red rocks of Sedona after hiking the Fay Canyon Trail. The blue sky makes a great contrast to the iron red rocks of the nearby cliffs. A wider view of the Sedona, Arizona landscape after hiking another trail. Red rocks and cliffs in the distance with some desert green shrubbery in the foreground.

I think it says something that I truly look forward to putting my phone in airplane mode when traveling so I can get a few hours peace.
