Cork, Ireland. September 2023.
*last photo is of a couple who was clearly “enjoying the craic” and they asked me to take their picture— they bickered to each other about dropping the bags so it wouldn’t be in the photo, but I thought it was the most interesting part of the photo, so I left it in the crop 🙂
Spent a week in Iowa to see some friends and some dirt circle cars and a then spent a week in Minnesota chillin with mom and the puppy at the cabin. We painted some rocks for the chicken coop. Shout out to my mom for pretending my rock was a god damn Van Gogh painting— that’s the kind of encouragement I’ve gotten my entire life and I’m grateful for it.
Spontaneously decided to drive out to Ventura Speedway for the Turkey Night Grand Prix. I’d never been to Ventura before. Had a great time. A+. Would do again.
Another year at Knoxville Nationals in the books. So much fun. So many Busch Lite’s and Budweiser’s. So grateful to have such awesome friends in my life.
This project was so much fun. It’s so rewarding to see them all laid out as a series. I have a ton of photos, but I can’t help but feel like there’s some good ones I missed— so I might have to do it again next year 👀.
Thank you everyone for being so supportive. Thank you my dudes who came out to help and let me take their picture. And thank you to my Angel of a mom who sat in the truck with me for days as I drove around the lake. I never for a second take for granted how lucky I am to be surrounded by so many amazing people. Thank you!
