barns, swath, bar & tattoos

Barnspotting. Suddenly I’ve become aware of the beauty and nostalgia of these barns I see almost every day on my routine drive through the countryside.

Jumping out of the car to quickly take photos before any farmers showed up, Beau thought it would be funny to take a photo of me barnstalking.

It has been weeks since I’ve had a work-free weekend — so I made the most of it. Slept in. Took a nice drive to Beau’s new apartment for next fall, then stopped at Beks for our favorite appetizer. Their artichoke dip with warm pita chips is scrumpdiddlyitious.

I’m excited to see that Beks is expanding. More room, shorter wait.

I met up with my good friend, Chris, who I haven’t seen in ages. We saw Snow White and the Huntsman, which was epically cinematic, visually beautiful and full of Charlize magnificence. It was such a nice evening for patio eats and drinking so we went up the roof bar at Quinton’s. Their spicy chicken dip {it must be dip day} and a couple libations hit the spot.

The sun was going down so I quickly walked downtown to see Beau and Kaitie bravely acquire tattoos. The deer at Iron Tiger Tattoo reminded me of SWATH :)

Last of her trifecta. What an eventful day. Good night!
