Christy

I've been spending my spare time watching the mini-series Christy that I got at Sam's Club. Watching this, I've noticed a few side effects. Namely, an inadvertent southern drawl, usage of phrases like, "Well I reckon'..." and an irrepressible urge to French braid my hair. Watching this also makes me want to move to the hills of Tennessee and become a missionary/school teacher.



I've been stripping wallpaper in my house and am repainting. I have attempted for my four years of house-sitting to restrain those decorator tendencies, but I was simply unable to hold back anymore. A year of looking at this hideous wallpaper every time I walked into the house was simply too much for me. Why did people wallpaper? It was just a bad idea. The work, trying to line up those patterns, all the glue, and most of all - the removal process.



I went out with friends Shelley Paulson and Rebekah Fancher to take some pictures out in a field when we got back from California to practice lighting and such. I was a willing accomplice. You can see more of Rebekah's photos from our day out at her flickr site.



TheCall California with Lou Engle was on November 1, 2008 at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego, California. Shelley Paulson took some amazing photos that you can see at TheCall's Flickr.
