WE DID IT!! I still cannot believe we just pulled that off.. After a nearly full rebuild of the mighty 4.3L Vortec V6, the Blazer is back in action with new head, intake and exhaust gaskets, motor mounts, a brand new starter, power steering pump, various oil / fluid lines, annnnnd a new serpentine belt. This was one of the most complex, challenging, and humbling projects I've ever undertaken, but I couldn't have done it alone. Shout out to pops for taking time off of work to help me when you could, and for giving me hope during the most frustrating of moments. You've showed me that anything is possible, it's just a matter of creativity and grit. Also thank you @colowhiteheads for letting me use your garage space for 3 months and for bringing us snacks and drinks while we wrenched away into the wee hours of the morning. Thank you @morganfromme for putting up with me talking about nothing but my car this whole time, and thank you to the all the guys at @vuevent for supporting me through the whole ordeal. Also mega thank you to @roadrunner6913 for answering hundreds of phone calls and for sharing all your knowledge and experience with me. On an unrelated note, is anybody looking to sell a 4Runner? #DIY#builtnotbought#earnyourride#chevy#gm#chevyblazer#rebuild#adventuremobile#findnewroads#letsgoplaces#4x4#vortec

Strasbourg is a very unique French town due in part to it's location across the Rhine river from Germany. An important economic and cultural center for France and Germany (It's Germanic name means 'Town of Roads'), Strasbourg is a colorful blend of German and French influence. Apart from the dominance of the French language in Strasbourg, you'd be hard pressed to assert in which country the town belongs. Germanic and French culture is beautifully intertwined throughout Strasbourg, from the architecture (an excellent example is pictured here) to the cuisine and everything in between. My @airbnb hosts were even a French / German couple! (at France? Germany? Both?)

Surprisingly, perfectionists are often procrastinators, as they can tend to think “I don’t have the right skills or resources to do this perfectly now, so I won’t do it at all.”

My entire educational experience summed up in one sentence.

When Buffalo State Hospital was sealed off to keep the trespassers at bay, the first floor was boarded off completely - leaving near-pitch-darkness.  On my final trip into the asylum, I was determined to get a shot of the Wheelchair Graveyard - a yellow ward in the brick section of the building that was completely without light.  So I brought in a half-dozen LED lanterns and other light sources, and spent an hour arranging them so that the light looked as realistic - in terms of mimicking window light - as possible.  Finally, I got this 8-minute exposure off, and was satisfied that I’d captured the aura of the ward.
