Here are my pictures of the SLC mountain, Snow and the sun setting. For all you people living in somewhere like this ___________________ you might find joy in these pictures. But my neighbors the Accountant maybe not so much.
Here is my picture of the Jordan River parkway. On my mission to become something of a photographer. Learning, exploring and playing with the camera. Lights, camera, shutters, aperture trying all this business. Here is my view of the park.
A lot of these are the same but I love the way the unmaintained and uncontrollable branches just go everywhere. Crazy no certain distance.

Pipe and tree.

Sitting in the living room, and Liz says I have an idea for you. You should do a blog on laundry tips. I have the 3 best tips that save us money. After a lot of persuasion and arm-twisting, you could say she talked me into it and well here we go.
TIP/1: Clothes drying rack preferably by a window with lots of sun. This is a 1 of 2. your clothes will dry faster and you will be wearing your favorite shirt in no time. In the summer turn a fan on and it works like a swamp cooler (make sure to close the bedroom door)
Drying rack.
TIP/2: First of all let me just start off by saying as someone who has fixed appliances for years everybody uses too much fabric softener. It doesn't make any sense to use as much as we do. (Moving on) Get your fabric softener into a 5gallon bucket soak a sponge or tennis ball then put one or the other into the washer or dryer. Washer is fabric softener and dryer is fabric sheets.
Put either the sponge or tennis ball in both the washer and dryer.
TIP/3: Make homemade laundry detergent and fabric softener. It is more time consuming then expensive. There are many good recipes you can find on google if you search homemade laundry soap and fabric softener. Take it from LIZ it works well. Store it in a 5gallon bucket and keep a lid on it.
Homemade laundry soap.
That is about how much money we have been paying for the last 3 yrs.
The Fourth and final
TIP/4: Make febreze take your fabric softener homemade or not and use it like frebreze. Spray it on all fabrics furniture, clothes, carpets, in the car, rugs.. Also spray it on a paper towel or cloth and make a fabric sheet and now we have a whole other list of new ideas. Put the sheet in the dryer, in your closet, gabage can, seasonal clothes, air vents, laundry basket, drawers and dressers,
Fabric Sheet.
These ideas are not for everyone, But a certain few may enjoy them and if you do please share Liz would be very happy to read and try them out. Please share.
6 months ago or so I made 10 or 12 cutting boards and sold them. Few months goes by and I get a letter and a cake at the bottom of the letter sits my name Jake King. As an artist and a businessman, I am thrilled and I would like to do it again and again. Being a maker, blogger and have a full-time job is not easy but very, very rewarding. Especially when you see this. Thank you, Thank you, thank you! I am never going to stop making things, I am never going to stop blogging. I am saying this 15-17 blogs in. The addiction is there and it has now seeped into my blood and I honestly can't get enough of the energy I feel after an excellent blog. Pinpointing my style and voice is going to be hard but worth the time and effort. Getting there is the journey and there are going to be a lot of really shitty blogs but I promise you the good, the awesome and amazing are still coming. Whatever it take's...
Hello,
Celebrity news is the most stupid news on earth. Because this particular person has millions & millions of dollars we care. We as hard working class American's should not care about the Kardashian's, what sitcom 90's actor or actress look like now. Donald Trump, I can't read the news without seeing this name even before his bid for president. Moving on there are more important things for us to care about. The troops, your aging parents, your children, spouse, reading, doing more, exercising, discovering music, discovering your dreams, learning, vacationing, bonding with anyone, getting a job, going to work. I am just saying there are more important things to do then watching the VMAS and seeing 2 cars pull up and see Kim Kardashian gets out of ONE and her ass out of the other. She doesn't care about us why should we care about her.
The Street Dogs have a song called the common people. LISTEN HERE.
The common people are some of the most amazing people. My father has worked all day every day for 40 years learning every trade he could. He is the Mr. Jack of all trades. Elizabeth Dad put himself in mortal danger going to Vietnam. Tom Brokaw has a book called the Greatest Generation and it is a very good read. It is about normal ordinary people doing extraodinary things.
In this clip we learn 2 things one respect your parents or they will lose there shit. 2 the working man is the tough guy, your father is the tough guy. This clip has always made since to me because who my father is. The only other new that is stupider than celebrity news is sport news and that is also pretty damn stupid. Neither are fascinating or that much more interesting that then need a news segment about there profession or lives.
Here is the best clip I could find of the greatest generation By:Tom Brokaw.
This is the first of many video clips that will be shared on the blog. If you haven't seen this movie stop watching and get this movie asap. Jasen and I had a really intelligent, long talk about this movie last Sunday. Everyone should watch this, at least, Once if not more after that.
Hello, My homemade phone, camera stand. For making video's, checking emails, reading the news, watching youtube, craigslist & ksl searches and updates.
