Ryker's First Easter
This Easter we had lunch with Alyssa's family and bought stuff to start our garden on Saturday and today my mom brought Jethro's BBQ over for lunch and we built our garden and planted carrots, watermelon, bell peppers, jalapeños and cilantro. Ryker had 2 easter egg hunts too!

Just got the new Google Camera app on my Moto X and was playing around with the Photo Sphere feature. There were some glitches because I moved a little. Once it is made you can make a static version like I have below. Click the Google+ post to move around in my Photo Sphere!

Peek A Boo Tower
1st Outside Photowalk of the Summer
801 Grand - The roof is made out of copper sheeting that was designed to form a green coating of verdigris over time, much like the Statue of Liberty. However, unlike New York City, the air salt content in Des Moines was so low that the desired oxidation process failed. The result was the copper turned a dark brown. Discussions on possible removal of the top layer of copper that would allow crews to purposely cause the oxidation process to create verdigris resulted in the decision to leave the roof as is in its current state. - wikipedia

A Farewell to the Younkers Building in Des Moines
I had to repost this video by Eden Films and share some of my older pics of the Younkers building and some from after the fire.
