Daniel spent much of the day with us yesterday helping to build some of our Ikea furniture. Along the way he introduced us to some new music (A Fine Frenzy) and also fixed all of my furniture building issues. He took some snapshots along the way. Today he sent me this Top 10 list and I just had to share it.
My ten key take-aways from an afternoon with the Wallace Duo.

Here’s the view from our hotel balcony in Crescent City, CA. I shot this late one night. It was great to spend some time by the ocean.
