Iceland

I know I know, EVERYONE and their mom has been to Iceland. Well, there's a great reason for that - this country is unlike any other place we've ever been - a land where majestic horses roam free, waterfalls outnumber people and sheep outnumber everything else. Jess and I were lucky enough to share part of the adventure with Rach, Nate, Kate, and Brando. We visited during late July through early August and I had totally planned on doing some milky way photos - but I casually forgot that IT NEVER GETS DARK IN THE SUMMER...whoops. One thing to note, half the photos were taken from a moving car...you'll need to get good at this or make way more stops than we did. hahahahahaaaaa. Honestly, I don't have the poetry of language to describe how much I love this place so here's a crap ton of photos to do it for me.

Yellowstone Under Canvas

I have a forever love affair with Montana and Wyoming. There's something about the landscape and the culture that makes me long for a more simple life. Last year for Jess' birthday, we stayed at Moab Under Canvas and since that was such a success I decided to do Yellowstone Under Canvas this year with Rach and Nate - it also happened to be Nate's birthday so we had double rad birthday vibes. The ratio of fun to photo-taking was actually much higher than on past trips and I'm not bummed about it. Sometimes you've gotta live an experience instead of capturing it. 

**Side note: maybe don't attempt to rope four inner tubes together into a makeshift raft and go down a no-so-lazy river after a heavy rain season. You'll end up with a ton of bruises, capsizing twice, and losing your favorite tank top (however, the river at Under Canvas is legitimately lazy and you'll be just fine if you start there!).
