The summer after I graduated college, I went to the Great Sand Dunes National Park in Colorado with a group of friends. It rained and I cried and I took a lot of pictures with my well-protected digital camera. Three of us stayed behind because we weren’t ready to leave and after wandering around for a while, the sun finally started to fall. We walked to the wrong parking lot, a good mile or so out of the way somehow. It was dark and Natty had to come rescue us in Gray’s parent’s minivan. What a great way to turn 23!

In a lot of ways, this is an origin story print. Quick, post-graduation, flighty in my soon-to-be-abandoned apartment. I did really think.
