Tumble, Targhee

I haven’t shared as much as I intended to from Targhee, but I’ve been, well, busy.  I have been told I’m attempting to do too many life-altering-and-stressful-things in the same year.  Which is most likely true.  And sometimes it makes me feel a bit like Greg did during this little incident.  He built this jump after a night of whiskey, so I like to call it the “Makers Mark Jump.”


Happy Spring, Luncheon

Today we gathered with friends for a first day of Spring luncheon.  Annie, the master chef, made a lamb top round, beet and carrot salad with ricotta cheese, peas and rice with mint, and lemon mousse for dessert.  We added homemade chocolate cupcakes with  butter cream frosting.  What a delightful way to start Spring.


Skiing Middle Earth

At Grand Targhee there is a bowl between the main mountain and Mary’s Nipple that feeds directly into a deliciously named run – Middle Earth.  Middle Earth consistently had the best powder on the mountain.


Portrait, High Contrast

I’m back!  I have many images to share from my week-long adventure in Targhee, but I thought I’d kick off the posting with a mustache shot.  Mike has been growing out his mustache for quite a while now, and decided to shave it off today (it was scaring the dog!).  Before he did, I set up a high-contrast white shoot to memorialize the only mustache I’ve ever seen on him.  I enjoy how his dark hair and eyes stand out so much against the white backdrop.
