Travel Photography – New Mexico

I think that one of the things that people forget is that New Mexico is more than just a desert. While we were driving through New Mexico during our road trip throughout the Southwest and Western United States, we had to stop and appreciate the beauty and greenery that surrounded us while we drove through… Continue reading Travel Photography – New Mexico

Travel Photography – The Grand Canyon Rain

Rain seems to follow Shaun and I no matter what location we visit. We were greeted with rain on our wedding day, the rainiest dry season in 20 years in Barbados, one of the rainiest winters in Madrid, and it rained on us when we were at the Grand Canyon. We had been talking about… Continue reading Travel Photography – The Grand Canyon Rain

Travel Photography – San Francisco BART

I really did leave part of my heart in San Francisco. I had heard that it was quite a bit like Austin, and the city did not disappoint. From tap dancing performers on the streets to the sights and smells of a busy city, I could not help but fall in love with such a… Continue reading Travel Photography – San Francisco BART

Travel Photography – Arizona Roads Near the Hoover Dam

Per the consensus, this week is a color photo week! Shaun and I were making our way up to Las Vegas when I saw this amazing view from the car on the way to the Hoover Dam. Looking out the window when making long, nostalgic road trips across the country can bring your some of… Continue reading Travel Photography – Arizona Roads Near the Hoover Dam

Travel Photography – Night White Out at Burning Man

I have a few Burning Man pictures lined up for the next few weeks since they just look so awesome. Yes, I was dumb enough to pull out my camera during a fill blown white out at Burning Man. These types of things can be fixed on my camera, right? *cough* (Let's not talk about that...)… Continue reading Travel Photography – Night White Out at Burning Man

Burlesque Road Trip 2

Back in January I had the opportunity to partake in yet another burlesque road trip with burlesque beauty and bestie, Jolie Ampere Goodnight. While I was hoping to make a break into the burlesque and pin up industry before we left on our trip, I have to take a step back to make sure our… Continue reading Burlesque Road Trip 2

Burning Man Pics: Storm Encroaching the Playa

There is nothing quite like the sight of an encroaching storm on the dry desert over Burning Man. In true Over Yonderlust fashion, it rained on us. While normally it can get annoying, there is nothing more magical than a desert storm. While this picture did make its debut in a previous Burning Man post,… Continue reading Burning Man Pics: Storm Encroaching the Playa

Travel Vaccines – The More You Know

When I was looking for information on vaccines I found that there was very little on the internet. You know you have to get them, but you really don’t know much more than that. Seeing as we just went through this giant debacle, I thought I would share the plethora of information that I received… Continue reading Travel Vaccines – The More You Know

Road Trip to Burning Man: In Numbers

After we made our way down the Pacific Coast Highway via road trip, Shaun and I visited another friend for our last goodbye to Japanese noodles and basically booked it home. We did manage to write a few stats down about our road trip that we found to be particularly amusing. Total miles driven: 4857 Total… Continue reading Road Trip to Burning Man: In Numbers

Road Trip to Burning Man: Pacific Coast Highway

After we drove out from San Francisco, we were left with the feeling that our trip was finally coming to an end. Our time of freedom was coming to a close and we wanted to make sure to enjoy the rest of our trip to the fullest. Shaun would be going back to his graveyard… Continue reading Road Trip to Burning Man: Pacific Coast Highway

San Francisco Road Trip – Coming From Burning Man

I can, without a shadow of a doubt, say that I left my heart in San Francisco. Our San Francisco road trip part of our trip really caught me off guard. What can I say? I fell in love. People have often told me that San Francisco is essentially California’s version of Austin, Texas. While… Continue reading San Francisco Road Trip – Coming From Burning Man

Road Trip: Reno to San Francisco

The road trip from Burning Man to Reno to San Francisco is one of the most horrific experiences I have had driving so far. The morning started out with Shaun (who used to be a mechanic) helping a few people out with their cars. The harsh desert conditions appeared to have taken its toll on… Continue reading Road Trip: Reno to San Francisco

The Man Burns: Burning Man Part 5

When we pulled up to Burning Man our first day, I didn't understood why, when arriving at the gate, the volunteers welcome every single car with a hearty, "WELCOME HOME!" and a hug (yes, they make you hug out the car window or GET OUT of the car!) until I was about to leave the… Continue reading The Man Burns: Burning Man Part 5
