Decompression

The holidays can take a wheel and thrust it into overdrive. The day after Christmas Amy and I took advantage of not being responsible for the kids for the night and escaped up to Kohler. We've been up there for the Sunday brunch, but hadn't stayed there overnight before. It was fantastic. It was pretty slow there, we managed to have a candlelight dinner in the Wisconsin Room that probably can accommodate about 200 people, and we were the only people there. We also took a walk on some trails that they have and I spotted three deer alongside the creek. Days like that help get you through times when the kids are testing your limits or you just need to focus on that very special person in your life. We didn't have a tripod with us on the trip so these shots of both of us were taken by setting the camera onto a fence post or a desk. The first shot I took on top with Amy and the waterfall in the background I slowed the shutter speed down to get a nice effect of the water. I was really happy with how well it turned out considering the fact that I was crouched in the freezing weather trying my best to stay steady.

We can't wait to be able to return there, hopefully in May when we will be celebrating our 10 year wedding anniversary.
