favorite board game?
I have more than one.....love scrabble, love trivial persuit, love monopoly, and LOVE battleship (is that considered a board game? If it is, that's my fav)

Favorite Country Song? Thunder Rolls.

favorite day of the week? why?
Everyday...when you don't work a M-F 9-5 job, and you live in Aspen, and get to ski or do whatever your
heart desires each day, then everyday of the week is awesome.

if you could be any age right now what would it be? why? 23. You have
so much potential, so much energy, and nothing really holding you in any one place. It's like having wings, you can go anywhere, do anything, and you're learning so much about life and yourself every
day. But, I think that if you live your life right, you can still be this way at 63 and maybe even 93..if you're lucky.

favorite time of day? Late afternoon to right before sunset. I only get to see the sunset 4 days a week because I am working the other three. I never miss it on those 4 days, and it is by far the most
beautiful time of the day, especially when you live in the mountains or by the ocean. It makes me stop whatever I'm doing, look around for a moment, and it reminds me how beautiful this life is.

would you rather be in front of or behind the lens (camera)? Both.
Taking pictures is one of my greatest passions. There are just so many beautiful things in the world to photograph. But I also love being infront of the lense because when I look back on those pictures, they bring me back to the moment, which it's usually a good one, and then you get to re-live it all over again, as many times as you want.

do you sleep in the nik? in the summer definitely, and in the winter too if there's lots of blankets....or a warm body.

boxers or briefs? love them both

apples or oranges? oranges definitely. I eat at least 5 a day.....not kidding.

bananas or coffee?
coffee.....well espresso

ice cream or a sunday stroll? Ice cream while going on a sunday stroll..... you just can't have one without the other!


would you rather dance in the rain, feel no pain, or lion tame? I would like to lion tame, while dancing in the rain, and hopefully feel
no pain when the lion attacks!
