In what's quickly become a tradition for the members of the 501st Legion, public transportation was used to get to ECCC 2018. New for this year were the newspapers that were made and sold to raise funds for the True Colors Fund, a nonprofit formed to help end homelessness among LGBTQ youth. #badguysdoinggood
Read MoreBreanne and I made a trip to the dry side of Washington to escape the winter blues, visiting the Ancient Lakes and exploring some new territory near the Columbia River. We were excited to find some sun and an uncommon dusting of snow that made the trip even more scenic.
Read MoreI flew back home to California for the holidays and spent a day with my cousin shooting around the Hollywood area. Here's his awesome vlog from the day's adventures and the photos that I shot throughout, including a great portrait of a man and his aging record store that's certainly portfolio-worthy.
Read MoreBreanne and I made a trip up to the Skagit Valley to check out the migrating geese. What we saw amazed us: there were thousands of geese and a very picturesque supermoon rising. Here's a vlog and images from the trip!

In this case, Fireteam Orca Stormtroopers from Garrison Titan made an appearance for a local family who has benefited directly from the cause that they care about the most: The Seattle Children's Hospital. This year, Garrison Titan has raised a record-breaking $70,000 (and counting) for the Children's Hospital. 18-month old Ben, already a Star Wars fan, was a recipient of a custom Stormtrooper prosthetic leg and was certainly overwhelmed at seeing his action figures come to life.
Read MoreTo me, Mt. Si has always been that mysterious, imposing mountain over the town of "Twin Peaks" (the greatest TV show ever). On a nice break in the weather, I finally got around to climbing it and experiencing one of the most amazing viewpoints around the Seattle area. If you go, watch out for the birds at the top. They might look nice on camera, but they will steal food right out of your hands.
Read MoreIt may be called Mt. Forgotten, but I don't see why. The amount of biodiversity in the area was amazing. Beginning from rarely seen deciduous forests, passing through the evergreens, and finally ending up at an alpine meadow with a view of Mt. Baker and Glacier Peak was quite a unique experience. As usual, here's 10 from an exhausting, yet very rewarding hike — that really should've been an overnighter.
