Dia Beacon

2015-shotbyjake.com-5531

Saturday was snowy and gloomy. A perfect museum day. It was my first time to Dia Beacon. I had been wanting to check it out for a while. It is housed in an old factory with tons of huge windows and skylights, allowing in tons of cloudy diffused natural light.

Vegas

2014-shotbyjake.com-5224

I took a break from the frozen tundra of NYC to visit Las Vegas over a long super bowl weekend. It is always fun to pal around with locals. Instead of hanging out on the strip, I spent my time there exploring the old grittier side of the city. I saw friends, made some new friends, and just generally enjoyed the desert.

Foggy Weekend

IMG_9384

Sunday afternoon I took a drive up the Hudson. I’m kicking myself now, for not bringing a real camera. The fog and spitting rain (coupled with the unseasonably warm temp) made the Hudson valley seem otherworldly. Here are a few snaps that I got with the celly.

I almost didn’t make it out west for Thanksgiving this year. Airfare was a bit outrageous when I first started looking in August. Thanks to Kayak’s price alerts, I was able to snatch up a relatively last minute flight for a decent price. I think that Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. Interestingly enough, I heard several of my friends echo this sentiment during the weeks leading up to the holiday this year. Various reasons were given.. because it is non-religious, because it is during the fall, etc.. I’m not really sure why I like it so much. I had a really good one this year. I was able to see my parents as well as each of my siblings. I was also able to meet my newest niece. There are few things that are as satisfying as spending time with my peoples.

From Ze Weekend

I shot this show on Palomino Island. I lost my wallet, and got really sunburnt. Also, I had fun. If you find my wallet please mail it to me.

Buffalo

2014-shotbyjake.com-4204

I found out sort of last minute that I wasn’t going to have to work on Columbus Day. I didn’t have enough miles to go anywhere fancy, but wanted to get out of the city. I ended up booking a quick trip to Buffalo NY. I have friends up there, and I had never been. It ended up being a really fun time. Here are a few snaps.

Some celly snaps from the weekend

I put new tires on the moto about 3 weeks ago and have not had nice weather during the weekend since then, until last weekend. The new tires, sunshine and temps culminated in one of the best Bear Mountain runs I have had so far this summer. I wish that I would have taken a real camera with me.
