New Job, new apartment, new laptop...

This is the blog post of new things...if you couldn't tell by the title. First off, my new job. I am still working at Tulley's as my primary source of income, but I am now officially an assistant website designer! It appears all my effort in contacting local website designers has paid off! I will be doing random website design assignments from my boss on the side, mostly to gain experience in my field, but also to earn some extra cash. You know you have a cool boss when he says when he hires you, "Just make sure you don't loose any powder days working on anything for me." :D My boss seems really chill, a little weird, but overall chill. His company is no joke either, he designed the website for one of the biggest furniture hardware companies on the internet...the website he designed brings in about 3/4 of a million dollars to a local company here in Jackson Hole. I can definitely learn a lot from this guy, especially about e-commerce.

As for the new apartment, here are the much awaited pictures! The lighting is super yellow because I ended up taking all of them at night. Enjoy the photo tour!


The entry way, take an immediate left to...


The first bathroom, not much here, exit and go left to see...

This all-encompassing view of the living room, dining area, kitchen and entry. Now just step outside for and look at the...

Deck. Big right? The sun has set but there is a beautiful...

Twilight view. Sorry to disappoint, but this completes the photo tour. Hope you all enjoyed seeing our new place as much as we enjoy living in it.

In other news, I received my new Apple MacBook Pro today after hunting down the fedex man who supposedly knocked on my door this morning. I LOVE it, and would even marry it if it were legal in the state of Wyoming. It's pretty much my new baby...


That's all the new stuff for now. My friend Marcus will be visiting next week, and there will be lots to post I'm sure...hopefully including some really cool Yellowstone pictures!

Chris,

Thanks for the pictures! It looks great! You all have so much room. You all have done a lot in the little time that you have been there.

Congrats on the new apple. I know you are in heaven with it. Did Laura get one too? I know you won't be sharing it.

I counted 3 big pumkins. Are you planning to carve them for Halloween? When Marcus is there?

Good job updating your site.

I miss you,
Love,
Mom

Hello Chris,

What luck! I happened across your blog as I was doing some preliminary research for a new project I am working on. I happen to think this book will be of great interest to you...

JACKSON HOLE: A Comprehensive Guide to Jackson and the Grand Tetons is a travel guide that takes readers on a journey through Jackson, WY.

Once a frontier of the American West, today it buzzes with trendy restaurants, art galleries and cowboy nostalgia set amidst striking natural beauty and abundant wildlife. In this comprehensive guide, learn about the best of Jackson, including outdoor activities, shopping and dining, and the incredible landscape of the Grand Tetons.

If you would like to have a copy sent to you for review consideration on your blog, please forward me your mailing address. Please let me know if you have any questions. I hope to work with you soon!

best wishes in your new town,
Lisa
