My name is Andrea. I live in New Mexico with my husband and my cat. We just moved to Los Alamos from Las Cruces and are learning to live our lives without all our old friends nearby. I'm a Starbucks Barista and am working on loving being in a small town.

Here you'll find an amalgamation of my many passions and pursuits. I am an aspiring photographer. Please check out my SmugMug and what you think of my shots. You can even buy prints for a nominal fee.

Act Naturally
Anonymous: what is your favorite kind of tree

Hmm.  My favorite tree would be deciduous and climbable.  So no conifers, or things like willows, palm trees (yes, people climb those, but not in the good way), or aspens.  Oaks and maples are obvious answers.  I have to admit, though, I don’t know trees very well.

OH WAIT.  REDWOODS.  HANDS DOWN.

Funny thing about that is that they’re not particularly climbable without gear, and they’re not deciduous.
