i take pictures and i talk to people. all the time. i’m not a photographer or a journalist, but i AM a very curious soul. i took all these pictures with my iphone, using “hipstamatic”, “shake it photo” and “instagram” apps. love. pictures and stories. it’s like being back in first grade. except i have my front teeth.Tumblr (3.0; @kerryabdow)http://kerryabdow.tumblr.com/<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/a658e7d227d6ec4ff3c9e4db09569a58/tumblr_mmyztjobcE1qdw4y3o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>The road home. (at Estes Park, CO)</p> <p>i moved from denver to estes two days ago.  i live at the end of a one-mile dirt road, so to get any sort of “provisions” - i.e. wine and food - i need to walk.  this is good not only for me, but for boo; mama needs to drop some ell bees and boo needs exercise for her sweet little heart.  i took this picture on the way home today because i am continually astonished by the beauty here.  i’ve been posting tons of pics, to the annoyance of many.  but screw them.  this place is amazing.  </p>http://kerryabdow.tumblr.com/post/50692789907http://kerryabdow.tumblr.com/post/50692789907Fri, 17 May 2013 19:22:00 -0600<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/8a5e525d28186868c114f00299581cf5/tumblr_mmyzrvy6vF1qdw4y3o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Oh deer.
