Wisconsin. Cheese Factory.

I got back from visiting my boyfriend, Ben, in Wisconsin a few days ago.  On one of the first nights of my visit he took me to his friends house.  In their back yard you can find The Cheese Factory, which looks like an old garage from the outside, but was once really a cheese factory.  Ben and his band practice their music and have concerts in the rustic old building.  These are some pictures I took while watching them play.
Also, my picture is up on America's Next Top Model and I would love it if you voted for me!  Click here to vote, I am the first person pictured in the white skirt! Thank you!

Stripes and Signs.

Once again I must apologize for the lack of recent posts!  I just came back from visiting my wonderful boyfriend in Wisconsin.  I was there for two weeks and spent most of my time lovin' on him and taking pictures.  Now I am home and there will be many Wisco pictures to come!  However, I haven't quiet had the time to sort through those pictures yet so these pictures come from a fun day out with my girlfriend Tayler yesterday.  We spent most of the day with one of my friends from college, Kelly, at the Jazz festival in North Portland, St. John area.  We bathed in the sun while chatting, eating gyros, and taking in the music and people.  I took these pictures of the signs all over St. John, which are fabulously old and beautiful!  


On a totally different note, today Tayler and I auditioned at the cycle 16 America's Next Top Model casting call in downtown Portland at a local beauty school!  It was interesting to see the people who showed up at the casting call.  The whole experience, aside from being extremely time consuming, was simultaneously fun/exhilarating and bazaar.  Soon my picture will be up online on the website and I need my readers to vote for me!!  I will let you know when the opportunity to vote arrives (will be sometime around Tuesday).

On me: shorts: vintage LUX, shirt: Urban Outfitters, purse: Goodwill, shoes: Goodwill.
