Back in Cowtown

Well, I'm not sure how many posts I've started with this exact some title, but it is what it is... I'm home.

After spending a long time in Dallas and then my vacation back in Vancouver I have returned. I have a couple days off now to get my life back together here so that I can go and grab groceries and do some laundry and get back into the books while I await my first flight as a jet pilot.

I took my new camera with me to the Coast and took some photos while down there. Here are a few I took. I went to my mom's barn and took some photos there and also took some at fireworks from Saturday night's finale.


My mom and her horse 'Tucana'

Her other horse (smaller like a pony) 'Winston' being ridden by one of the girls who rides at the same barn

A baby horse that is only a few days old

The crazy crowd growing at Saturday's fireworks display which had Mexico performing

Some boats in the bay as the sun was setting

The sun continuing to set...

Going...going...going...

...and finally gone!

An impromptu shot of the actual fireworks, I didn't have a tripod so wasn't trying to take any photos, but thought I'd give it a go by just bracing the camera on my backpack


So I'm pretty happy with the camera to date, I've been able to get some pretty nice photos and I'm getting better at post editing as well.

Now it is time to return to the normal life. Can't wait to get into that jet and start flying to further places, faster and higher! I'll keep you all appraised about my first trip... so far nothing is on the books as of yet.
