Tag and Confession

I was tagged by the ever beautiful and the ever dearest Winkie. The tag was to show the internal organs of your purses/bags. But before that, I have a confession to make. This is soo timely for this tag. Lol

So I was shopping last Thursday for my JLC’s birthday. I went to Dillard’s and to my delight, they had “40% off additional to all price reduced items”. So I was able to get him office shoes, pants, shirts, sandals, and polo.

It’s been a while since I went shopping. I tried to stay away from malls (mall lang pala kasi isa lang ang meron kami dito) but that day I had an excuse.

I went to the women’s department and found out that they too have the same Sale promo. I went immediately to my favorite part of the store, the bag department. Waa. I went crazy! Their $298 purses became $53. Their $80 bags naging $12. Most of them were 80% off plus additional 40% off yung price. Parang pinamigay lang. Sino ang hindi matetempt niyan? Dito kasi, pag sinabi nilang sale, sale talga! Walang catch. Hindi gaya sa atin, sale dahil may sira. They just want to get these things out of their inventory.

Wildflowers in Crested Butte

Akala niyo tapos na ako sa litanya ko sa trip ko? Di pa noh! Hahaha.

I was too late to capture the beauty of the wildflowers in Crested Butte. My main goal of the trip was to shoot these beautiful flowers and to show my JLC the beauty of Crested Butte. I should’ve gone last month to see them. Meron pa namang naiwan, pero hindi na siya madami. Hindi daw pareho noong last month na fields of wildflowers ang makikita ko. May nakita naman ako, fields of dead wildflowers nga lang.

Siya nga pala, Butte is pronounced as “Byut” not “butt as in pwet”. May iba kasi diyan na ang dumi ng pag-iisip – crested butt. Haha. Deejay? Ikaw ba yan?

Anyhoot, I was able to take photos of what was left of the wildflowers in Creste Butte. I wasn’t really satifisfied with these photos pero ayaw ko namang umuwi na luhaan. What the heck, share ko nalng sa inyo. Read more

In and Around Crested Butte

It was still raining drizzles when we woke up the first day. We assumed the dirt road is really dirty and muddy. We waited for an hour before we headed off. My JLC’s car is not a four-wheel drive. You gotta have a 4 x 4 car to survive the nasty roads to the mountains. We took risk and used his car, may insurance naman eh. Lolz

The Drive to Crested Butte

I had to work half of the day last Friday before heading to Crested Butte. I was too nice not to take the whole day off which I could’ve if I wanted to. My JLC and I left at around 1 PM. It was raining, we almost backed out but rooms had been booked, plans had been made, food had been purchased. It was too late to retreat.

We were almost at the Colorado/ New Mexico border when the rain finally stoped. Thank goodness.

The drive alone was fun. It was like a tour of a lifetime.  We passed by a lot of beautiful sceneries. Good thing I was just a passenger, I was able to enjoy them all. Ninamnam ko talaga. Mountains, hills, birds, deers, cows, etc.. were a joyful sight. I really love country life.  You can feel the simplicity and fulfillment.
