Adios to Arizona: camping, music, & couchsurfer reunion

Joyous news!  I just accepted a job in San Francisco and now have 2 weeks to up and move.  I happen to find out about this job while I was camping and watching bluegrass with friends of mine , including a french couchsurfer of mine from when I lived in Ecuador.  In other words, the best possible way to celebrate.  Here's the quick recap.  See you all in San Fran!

Lots o' guitars and my little new hobby, the Ukelele

In Between

Wow.  It has been a year since I last posted.  Well, although my travels have not been outside the US, they have still be splendid.  I've been all over Arizona, from lakes to desert to pine trees to cacti, and have also ventured up and down the west coast somewhat.  Following are my favorite travel pictures from the last year "in-between" - as in in between South America and my next....well, something.
