Worthy Fest, 2012

This weekend was the ear-gasmic weekend of a small music and arts festival commemorating 4/20, pure talent, and a lucky turtle's birthday.  Over 50 local artists and bands from around Whatcom County (mainly Bellingham) gathered in the woods of Glacier to enjoy great company, great vibes, and an all-around great time.

The Lagoon of Pure Perfection

Here lies the lagoon.  A lagoon that hides inside the belly of the peninsula of Railay, Thailand.  A lagoon that is so effortlessly touched by sunlight and beauty.  A magical place of enchantment.  A lagoon that teaches you only the most beautiful things in life are worth exhausting climbs.  A lagoon that only the most determined are able to enter.  The lagoon that will forever haunt my dreams.

The Bellingham Life

Reverse culture shock is easier to manage when you come back to a beautiful town with so much to offer.  Bellingham is rich in Pacific Northwest culture and music that no visitor can truly understand the extent unless they have become an inhabitant of this wondrous town.  Here lie some moments of a beautiful weekend.

Bellingham Bay Nightscape
