I Wake Up In Twilight

08.23.12

While out on a walk the other evening, Scott and I made our way up onto the side of a local (mini) mountain. We didn’t really have plans to climb part of the mountain (thus the slightly inappropriate footwear), but the sunset that was covering Tempe was just too gorgeous not to get a better view of.

I’ve been up this mountain a few times before, but this time around it seemed much more magical up there. Storm clouds were rolling in from the South, cotton candy like clouds were covering the sky, and the reflection from the nearby skyscrapers made for an amazing Twilight experience. I know I’ve said this before, but nothing is better than an Arizona sunset (especially pre and post monsoon storm!).

Speaking of Twilight (no, not that Twilight), lately I haven’t been able to get the Owl City and Carly Rae Jepsen’s track Good Time out of my head. The first time I heard the track it was actually in a fan made video (this one to be exact), but since then I’ve become obsessed with the catchy lyrics and fun beat. I’ve never really been one for radio pop, but this song just has something about it that can really lift my spirits and make me want to drive with all of the windows down and the music up.
Also, can I just say that this guy has been extra amazing with helping me with the blog lately. Over the summer I missed his creative eye and photo skills SO much! I really think we work better as a team, and I really am so thankful to have a partner that is so supportive of something I love doing so much.

Today is going to be one busy day! I’ll be in downtown and West Phoenix most of the day, and I’m hoping I can stop by my favorite coffee shop for an iced coffee and maybe a treat (I deserve it after such a crazy day, right?).
What are you up to today? Are you into the Owl City song at all?
