film, early October 2012
Three and a half years ago I moved to Stuttgart to study Visual Communication, and this is the first film photo I took in my new home. Yesterday I gave my final presentation on the bachelor project I’ve been working on these past months, which means that the stressful times are finally over. :)
This was taken before she drank the contents of the bottle (which she LOVED). She was so amused with just the bottle itself. Doesn't take much to please our Jet.

I'm standing next to the commercial range in our new house to provide scale. This moment was the only opportunity I'll ever have to lean on the griddle without burning myself; from here on out, Husband will be frying onions there every hour of every day.

...we hung our maps of Tasmania in the foyer. Husband is also wearing his AUSTRALIA jumper today -- and I was going to make ANZAC biscuits, but I got tired.
But I am not too tired to play some two-up.

God gave us an incredible gift for our 10th year wedding anniversary! Our home was listed for sale on our anniversary and we were able to close yesterday (2 full weeks early!)
Our FIRST Home!!! :)
Many older married couples can remember like it was yesterday the first home they lived in after marriage. After a half century, my wife and I still talk about ours.
Our first home was not like this deserted mobile home we observed recently stuck way out in a field by itself. But like this mobile home, ours wasn’t anything that ever graced the front cover of “Better Homes & Gardens”.
When we moved in, the first night we discovered there were previous tenants, scores of them. Four-legged furry mice that you could hear scattering about in every one of our four rooms. The next morning, my wife encouraged me to stuff every hole and crack I could find with steel wool. Then I fashioned screening over every furnace vent before we eventually got some relief.
But this “Mouse House” as we named it was everything to us. It was the location where my wife and I began our lives together, where our love for each other became greater than the square footage of that little farm house as we dreamed together of our future that seemed limited only by our imagination.
We gathered other people’s castoffs for our furniture, stripped and painted chairs, tables and made do with secondhand appliances. In the cold, wind-driven winters on the open plains of southwestern Minnesota, the incessant north winds buffeted our poorly insulated house but we laughed, wrapped ourselves in warm blankets and drank hot chocolate. Some early winter mornings we could see our breath as we got our first cups of coffee ready in our small kitchen.
Summers were better. We could take walks in the dying embers of colorful sunsets, holding hands as we walked and planned for a life we hoped would go far beyond our several acres of weeds, spotty grass and trees.
In those quiet moments in approaching darkness as crickets began their nightly concert, we felt we could never be richer even though we had to struggle to pay the $50 monthly rent.
The Mouse House was not grand by any measure but looking back at it we realize it was a symbol of two people uniting into one life, having a love that was not affected by having precious little of this world’s goods. That extremely modest first home wasn’t just where we lived but where we discovered happiness is not found in physical things but in the hearts of two people who could call any place home.
I wonder sometimes when I hear young couples planning to get married who want to start off with having a house at least as good as the one their parents have. Perhaps there is a step in life learning that is better experienced when the developing of relationships with your spouse is about all you can afford.

We are leaving Tokyo in a week's time and moving to Hong Kong. For me Tokyo has been a wonderful experience except for the language barrier. In the 9 months that I have spent here, I have made wonderful memories.

Sometimes, when she's in her cage, Jet makes this face. She isn't growling; she isn't menacing; she's just resting her nose on the grate and sticking her tongue out.

Suzy and I planted this row of spruce trees in the summer of 1972. They were only a foot tall when they were planted. This is the first house I built, we started the first week of June and moved in the beginning of August. I am afraid it was full of poor decisions but it was really a learning experience. We lived here for six years as a pair of "young kids".
Built for Charles and Michael Calnan and their mother, the houses were built out of stone and no bricks were used. The middle house was started in 1857 and each one took a year to build, with the help of a ship's carpenter. No expense was spared to make them comfortable. Each was of five rooms with a large garret room after the old English style, also panel doors, sash windows, etc, and in every room were cedar cupboards, and cedar wardrobes in the bedrooms, also large dressers built in every kitchen. Being the only houses of any size on Kangaroo Island at that time; and having eighteen rooms between them, there was always a spare one for travellers and many a social and musical evening was spent at ' Newtown.'

The key that will unlock the door to many new memories together. Congrats to the happy couple! :) I had so much fun with this unique shoot!

Here's Minion Phil on Possession Day! As some of you may have noticed, I've been absent from flickr for a bit. For the past few weeks we've been dealing with a move. It's quite nice to wake up to having Internet at home again along with a computer to use it with. We're still in the final stages of moving boxes, but things are coming along slowly but surely. The unpacking process has been started while the final items are emptied from our old place. We're very excited about our first place. We had decided to arbitrarily set possession day to May 5th cinco de mayo when we first wrote the offer just because. It worked out pretty well and had some friends over that day for standing room only burritos, good times! Catch up soon!

Not my finest moment, in that I lifted this recipe from Rachael Ray.
My finest moment, in that these were the best olives I've ever tasted.
Goddarnit, Rachael Ray. Why you gotta go and make something good?!
