Little yellow spider, laughing at the snow
Well maybe that spider knows something that I don’t know
‘Cause I’m goddamn cold- Devandra Banhart

This little guy lived outside of my window for a good 4 weeks, until the snow came.  I wonder where he is now?

I would open my shades every morning and greet him before anyone else in my house.  Friends would shudder when I would show them my friendly roommate, but he never did anything wrong.

From the time I was a cute little baby boy, aka “chubby chad”,  I can remember spending my favorite parts of the summer at my family’s ranch in Star Valley, Wyoming.  During the last few years, I’ve been trying to capture the essence of this wonderful land, to let others see and feel its greatness.  Here are a few photos I made on my last trip of this year.
