Mt. Pinos Snow Trip & Merry Christmas!!!
On Saturday, Lauren, our neighbors and I took a trip up to Mt. Pinos so the dogs could play in the snow. There were a ton of people at the Nordic Station where the road ends, so we ended up hiking up to the top of the mountain along a pair of Snow Cat tracks. Overall everyone had a great time, especially the dogs.

Cardiff State Beach – San Diego
So the day after we went down to Balboa Park we decided to go hang out at the beach in Cardiff. Although it was pouring rain a few miles inland, the beach was nice but cold. It was Toki’s first trip to the beach and she had a really good time.

Balboa Park – San Diego
A few weeks back Lauren and I took a trip down to Balboa Park in San Diego. I used to go down there to the museums all the time with my Grandparents when I was a kid, but Lauren had never been. I was kinda bummed that the Natural History Museum was closed, but over all we had a good time. We generally just wandered around and had fun observing all the “professional” photographers with their thousands of dollars worth of equipment make fools of themselves… Must be a San Diego thing.

New Dita Eyewear Business Cards
New Dita business cards came in on Friday. I’m really happy with how they turned out and relieved that they finally went to print. If I remember correctly, I designed these cards over a year ago… It’s been that long to get them approved for printing… The cards were custom die-cut, duplexed, letterpressed by Studio on Fire a small letterpress house in Minneapolis, I’ve used them a couple times now for various projects and have been always very happy with the results. UPDATE: Studio of Fire posted their own killer writeup here: Beast Pieces.

Lancier by Dita Eyewear – Website Launch
Launched the new Lancier by Dita Eyewear website yesterday. So far so good, the new collection seems to be getting lots of positive response. In the 24 hours since the launch, 116 people have signed up on the waiting list for a chance to be one of the first to pick up a pair. We’ll see how well that goes when everyone finds out how expensive these frames are… but I have to say the quality in craftsmanship will be well worth it. www.lancier.com
