coldfire and our one year anniversary as Kansans

*



That is Kurt Porter. We used to make a short-lived but fun, cable-access program together in the early nineties. It was called "By the Banks of the Mighty Santa Ana" and it documented the local music scene in Costa Mesa, CA.


Flight time.

America.

there's this barn on the way home that I've always wanted to stop at and take a picture...


and now I have.


these fine ladies and gentlemen are just across the street from said barn.

This place we stumbled across is from 1870. There is a large stone above the door that says that. The stone fence below is from around 1860 from the westward expansion. The Santa Fe, California and Oregon trails all passed right through here.


It's been really cold for the last few days out here.

The two specs up in the tree are bald eagles. you'll have to take my word for it. they are beautiful. We've been here a year, as of two days ago, and have not seen any of them until now and then we saw three. Kurt must bring good luck.


We warmed up last night by the fire. There was a christmas tree burn up at some friend's of friends' house in the country.
