Ace Wonder

This is the trailer to a movie that John Moore is currently working on. I can't wait to see it! It looks very suspenseful. (Suspense is my favorite genre) The Actor (Robert Grossman) who's face is shown before you play the video is amazing. We know the Moore family from a few years back and I've kept up with John's blog. Our family has seen all his films at the San Antonio Christian Film Festival. He is extremely talented, but he also has incredible people behind the scenes who contribute to the great quality that John's Films always have. Check it out.

Gosh I love the Zoo!










Gold Rush: Colorado



Colorado is amazing. Some of our friends have a house up there and they shared it with us! They were so kind and hospitable to us. They even provided us with danger and excitement! :D They are both in their 60's, but man do they do some extreme sight-seeing. Mr. Morgan took us (Dad, Tyler, Adam and I) jeep-ing up Engineers Pass. Who knew it was so fun seeing your life flash before your eye's? Here are just a few of the many pictures that I took on the way to Colorado, going over mountains and through the Black Canyon, (second only to the Grand Canyon). There were also some very interesting gold mining ghost towns that we went through. They were in the process of restoring some of the buildings so you will see some modern objects in the pictures, such as trucks and new boards and screws. Mostly for safety reasons. Of course you know that I had to get in some mountain flora and fauna, as they are my favorite subjects to photograph.

Enjoy :)

This was the view from the Morgan's back porch. They lived on the very edge of a mountain!

Mrs. Morgan and I went mountain biking. Sorry about the white spot, I had to take a picture of the picture. :)

We played pool every morning and every chance we had in between. I've played allot before, but it took me a while to get the hang of it again. And then I started winning. and then Tyler called me a hustler. :)

Aster, just like my cousins middle name! Love you Allison!

(the fish wern't bitting so I took random pictures :)

The biggest Dandelion I have EVER seen.

The first surveyors to navigate completely through the Black Canyon (without dieing). William Torrence, and Abraham Fellows.


We actually went there in September. It was 9/11.

Mountain Columbine

The inside of what I think was a processing plant of some kind. Very interesting and HUGE.



I have no idea how he got up there. Thank goodness Momma didn't come with us.

(below) This was the richest family's house. They got a two story. I wish I had been able to go inside it. I snapped this picture as we were driving by.




A Partridge (not in a pear tree)








The Aspens were just turning. Wow!

My Lovely Cat...

...works so hard all day,... at being adorable. :)
Her whole name is Missy Coyote. I know it makes no sense, since she is a cat. I liked the name because it's out of one of my favorite children's book series, "Hank the Cow Dog". Can you tell our family likes cats? Everyone except Tyler. He likes dogs much better. We can't have a dog because our back yard isn't fenced in. And if we had an underground electric fence, it doesn't do a great job at keeping skunks and coyotes out.
