Weeks 24-26: Three weeks in one

Wow, first off I can't believe that I am halfway through my 52 week project. While I admit I haven't been prompt about getting the photos posted I am thoroughly impressed with myself that I haven't missed a single week yet. The last three weeks have been rather busy for me two road trips and the start of my kitchen remodel. More details in the photos below..

Week 24: Sekiu at Night
June 17-18 I participated in the Photo Center Northwest's Longshot fundraiser. 24 hours where you go out and shoot, one photo from the 24 hours will be selected by the center to be auctioned off in their annual fundraiser. Some friends and I decided this would be a good opportunity to drive out to the coast. There is no way we could manage 24 hours non-stop so we booked a hotel in Sekiu. Where is Sekiu you ask - it's here. This photo was shot at night shortly after we arrived at our hotel.

Week 25: What the *$%& was I thinking
As you may recall I decided this summer to remodel my kitchen. The project kicked off on Monday, June 20th. The week was mostly about demolition, a little more destruction that I would have hoped for but I survived and the kitchen is now being reassembled. Here is a before photo as well as a few of the work. You will most likely see an after picture after the project has completed. Daily photos are also being posted to Facebook.

Week 26: R&R
With all the demolition and chaos at my place I was in need of some rest & relaxation. Luckily I had booked a weekend out at Lake Chelan with some friends. Amazing how 3 hours from Seattle the weather is so completely different -blue skies & warm - almost like summer. The majority of the weekend was spent doing very little. You may surprised to hear that I only took 16 photographs over the 2 days compared to 100 the weekend before. Sitting on the beach I noticed some parasailers.
