These dogs were hanging out at the fireworks trailer. This brown one was cool but the black one in the background tried to bite my heel. It's bound to happen one of these days.



This is my friend Arturo who owns a hardware store downtown. His band, Agave Blues, performs around town almost every night of the week. A new bar opened outside town called the JollyMon and this picture is from their New Year's eve performance.

I don't think you can get these over sized sparklers in the states. They're pretty fun to photograph because the sparks come out sharp even though I'm hand-holding a five second shutter speed.

One of my other favorite San Felipe pastimes is taking walks (drinking beer) in the desert at sunset. I could tell earlier in the day that this was going to be a good sunset and it turned out to be possibly the best one I've seen. The color show kept going after the sun went down for at least an hour.

Happy 2010!
