Since I got my Strymon BigSky reverb pedal last week, I've been rethinking some of the old stuff I wrote on acoustic to be on electric + excessive reverb. This one I thought came out pretty neat. The cloud reverb option is quickly becoming a fav of mine 🙂

It's been while since I've posted a thing so here's a neat bench I saw on a hike! Can verify the view from it was amazing. I've been busy with various summer activities and ramping up triathlon training but I'll try and be more active here when I can!

I drove down from Denver to Santa Fe for an extended weekend to explore a bit! I'm sure it's a surprise that I spent my mornings in the local mountains/forest nearby 😎

Already got a trip planned this year to go back to the Elk Mountains here in Colorado! It's tough to beat the views there! Some of the trails are a bit steep though...

Just finished getting setup for the weekend! Gonna try and create more complicated sounds going forward. Also, my dog makes an appearance here trying to remind me not to forget about going on a post-work walk to the park...

I already know this summer is going to be good! My wanderer spirit has been rekindled! There are too many things I want to see and do. And hopefully I'll take some neat photos along the way. Anyways, here's a pic I took from a hike a few summers back!

When I was in California I went to Crystal Cove State Park to explore a bit. I took a few shots while I was wandering around! Not sure what that yellow plant is but it was everywhere.

Here's a little something from practice today! I was trying to figure out timing on a weird transition. Anyways, I've decided this piece is going to be my project this week. Going to try and actually complete a thing I wrote! This track is called By The Sea.

Well, I survived my road trip! Driving from Colorado to the west coast def provides a lot of scenic views. Here are a couple pics from a section of the drive where you enter this cool looking canyon (I think in or near Utah?).

Tomorrow I'm going on a road trip out west so I pulled out my travel guitar (GS Mini) that I'm bringing with! Was testing out the new strings playing random stuff and ended up doing a poor impression of Blackbird by The Beatles.. Anyways, here it is!

Finding hidden creeks in heavily wooded areas is neat. This was one I found last summer. Looking forward to trying to find a few more this year! Hopefully with better lighting next time...

It's been a while since I've posted a music thing so here is something! I'm trying to get back into the habit of practicing regularly again so I can eventually record stuff... Anyways, came up with whatever this is today. Still rough but I think it's workable!

This is from a backpacking trip I went on a while back! Pretty sure this is Upper Slate Lake. All I remember from that trip was being exhausted when we finally got there. The views were def worth it though!

This is my 3rd new pedal in less than 3 months... Gonna have to stop bringing my wallet with me when I go to music places or this could get out of hand quickly 😐

Here is a neat waterfall I stumbled upon a while back! I think I was up somewhere near Breckenridge. The lighting wasn't that great in the shot but waterfalls are still cool so here it is!

Last weekend one of my friends called out that I have no wall decorations anywhere in my house. I took offense and now have the first 5 things I'm gonna hang on my wall. Just need more stuff like this, a few paintings and maybe some of my photos and I'll be good

So I'm pretty sure I already uploaded the black & white version of this photo, but I looked at it again and decided I wanted a color version as well! It's such an odd looking leaning tree and one of my favs that I've stumbled upon!

I think I've played more electric guitar in the past 3-4 months than I have in the 5 years prior. I've always been more of an acoustic guy but recently acquired guitar pedals are changing me... Just need a Gibson in this collection and all will be right in the world 🙂

This will make a fine addition to my collection. I can already hear the paring with my blues driver & analog delay in my head. This weekend I just gotta sit down and make it happen...

Here's a little something from practice today! Had reverb + delay + blues driver up in there to stress test the acoustic amp. Anyways, I think I finally got past my first bout of self-doubt in my play the last month or so. Hopefully I'll post more regularly again!
