Yet another year at Pleasant Grove’s Strawberry Days was… amazing! How could it be anything but amazing! It was fantasmagoric! Gotta love it. Check out the video from the rodeo and be sure to glance at the pictures. It was a great time. I’m ready for next year! I’m already craving those delicious strawberries and cream.
Another sweet-o year at Holi (the Festival of Colors for you uneducated people). For those of you who don’t know of Holi, it surely is the highlight of my month of March. Here is Utah it takes place at the Sri Sri Radha Krishna Temple in Spanish Fork (check out their website: utahkrishnas.com). Holi as good ole Wikipedia puts it is…
“a popular Hindu spring festival, bonfires are lit at night to signify burning the demoness Holika [and] people spend the day throwing colored powder and water at each other.”
Here are some of the nifty pictures that we got while celebrating with our Krishna brethren.
You can view, download, or do whatever with any of these pictures on Picasa, Flickr or Facebook.
We were also on the news and there are a few shot of the friends and I, here are the links to the videos… Fox13, Deseret News, and The Daily Herald.
Enjoy!
Oh oh! P.S.
Check out jarviedigital.com he got some sweet pictures. If you went, take a look-see and see if you can find yourself… as for my companions, we’re in there a few times. Loads-o-fun! See you all there next year!
School is finally over… for the semester. But still! It is over and now I have time to post… what is this? Oh yes… My very first blog here on Blogger. I’m moving my blog over here because I have heard all the mad raving reviews! Truly, everyone I’ve talked to loves Blogger, hence why I’m here.
Anyway, school is over, I took my last final today… I think I did pretty well, we shall see. But I returned my textbooks and from the $250 that I spent at the start of the semester… I got a whopping $85 back. What a steal of a deal… no no… no it is not.
But being my first blog here I thought I would talk a bit about Christmas and how much I love it! You guessed it, I love it a lot. It’s great fun, good times, magical, and… with presents. I pretty much have all of them except for a few people. Let’s see, really I only have the friends that are girls left to get gifts for. But a big “don’t worry” goes out to Nikki (my girlfriend) to whom, yes… yes I do have your present… pretty much.
Also… I am leaving in, let’s see… ten days to go to Whistler! Bring it on British Columbia! Prepare to be conquered by the Hall Brothers! Yes, my brother Matthew and I will be taking on the challenge of boarding over every piece of terrain that Whistler has to offer. In the spirit of Christmas I have selected a few hip-hoppin holiday songs for all you all to listen and love to. Enjoy them and thank you for your warm welcome to Blogger. Enjoy!
