Great Article!

Ross — Tue, 16 Dec 2008 15:36:14 +0000

The daily CSU newsletter ‘Today @ CSU’ ran a great article on this fine day. Surprisingly, the student newspaper (The Collegian) did not pick up this gem. The Collegian received national acclaim and criticism last year when it printed a “Fuck Bush” ad shortly after the ’student taser incident’ we all recall. Sadly, having not picked up this article, they remain scorned while ‘Today’ gets major kudos with this hard scientific research.. about.. you guessed it SQUIRRELS!

It seems that these sneaky little bastards are helping hard working CSU students fulfill their academic dreams. Upon reading you will find their research enthralling. Although I can’t get over this incredible quote:

“We have some funny squirrels. Some of them like to hang out at the student center and get fed donuts by the people there,”

In fact, I can often be found near the student center doing the same thing. Enjoy!

Sand Dune Adventure

Ross — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 18:49:11 +0000

This past weeked Kelley and I and another couple went to the Great Sand Dune National Park for playing, camping and picture taking. Our friend Nathan is a professional photographer and needed subjects. This also gave Kelley and I the chance to learn and play with our new SLR camera (Canon Rebel XSI). We were able to try out some of his crazy lenses (he brought like 10 of them). We were expecting 8 degree temperatures at night, and was pleasantly surprised when it was probably around 20. The days were gorgeous and we had the park pretty much to ourselves. It was like being a kid again – running through the sand and snow, skiing down, and sledding.

We set up some lights which gave this awesome effect!

Wedding Photos!

It has been tough to go through all 1500 photos (from our photographer) and choose our favorites. We narrowed it down to about 300. Click on the photo to see them all. As we continue to sort through all of the pictures, we may choose to post others.

Enjoy – we have!

Durango, May 2008

Following the end of the spring semester, Kelley and I ran out of town and traveled down to Durango, CO for a much needed week on the Pine river. We always have a completely relaxing and amazing time while down there. Click on the image below for more photos of the trip!

Rawah Wilderness (Late July, 2008)

Ross — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 01:45:44 +0000

Kelley, Boo and I once again returned to the Rawah wilderness for a weekend of backpacking. The Rawah is my favorite local backpacking area. It seems that whenever I enter, I discover a new region with wonderful views, and outstanding ambiance. This trip was no different, we made our way 8 or so miles in to around 11,000 feet at the base of the Twin Crater Lakes. We camped in a valley where snow melted into waterfalls and collected as streams crisscrossing around our tent. You can click on the image below to be taken to the gallery for this event. Enjoy!

Well, after having to frantically move my sites to a new host (Go Daddy) and transfer all domains, I am not in a fairly good spot to start using this again. Go Daddy is a great deal – with their deluxe plan at ~$6.50 a month, I am getting a ridiculous amount of space and bandwidth, as well as all of the databases I could have a chimp throw it’s feces at. Also, I took the opportunity to update Wordpress and Gallery to their current stables, so everything on my admin end looks pretty. Stay tuned as I finish up this new(ish) design. I also have a sh*t ton of photos to post in the Gallery, and I will alert you when they are available.

Thanks all and Go Bills!

Buffalo Bills Offensive Coordinator returns to CSU!

Ross — Thu, 13 Dec 2007 15:27:09 +0000

It’s official, Buffalo Bills Offensive Coordinator, Steve Fairchild, will be Colorado State University’s new Head Coach! Steve is a CSU alumnus, and has coached at CSU before. With our horrible record the past few years, this is a welcome change that is sure to get us back on track in the Mountain West. Rather than regurgitate facts about Fairchild’s past with CSU and his commitment to the Buffalo Bills, here are links to some articles written about the event:

Valuable Intelligence

Folks… I have discovered what can only be a squirrel of considerable royalty. This monster is as large as a cat and does not fear the hunter’s bullet. Located in Estes Park, Colorado I managed to get this photo which I have posted in extremely high resolution for us to study, and god willing, discover a weakness.
