Local Natives

NPR hosts these things called Tiny Desk Concerts.  I've heard of the "Local Natives" before, but never really listened to their music until last night on their Tiny Desk Concert. 

Here is the non-acoustic version of one of the songs they did on NPR.

One More Time

Damn! One of the rappers in my favorite guilty pleasure song died the other day. Probably shouldn't listen to my other guilty pleasure "Whip My Hair" anymore so nothing happens to that little girl.

Anna's Wedding

My brother-in-law, Brendan Ash, took amazing photos at Anna's wedding on May 7th. Here are some of the shots from the evening.

Wineries and Bed & Breakfasts

Adam and I went on a spur of the moment trip to Charlottesville, VA a few days ago. We stayed at two beautiful bed and breakfasts (the Inn at Monticello and the Dinsmore House). Between that we went to 7 different wineries, ate at some awesome places like Mellow Mushroom and Lemon Grass, walked historic trails, collected 8 new bottles of wine, and discovered a new favorite beer called Starr Hill Monticello. It was the perfect way to spend my week off before grad classes start and I get assigned my summer clients. I'm so looking forward to doing a trip like this again somewhere else. I didn't think I'd love bed and breakfasts so much, but I don't see myself ever wanting to stay at a regular hotel after this relaxing and fulfilling experience.
