Eureka was great. and so was working with MedicalToys.com.
i'll be driving up there next year - most likely February and this time i'll be able to bring someone to shoot with as well.
I was a bit apprehensive about the drive.
I really did want to go somewhere as i was feeling a little trapped from not traveling
but I wasn't too excited about the 5+ hours i'd have to sit in my car.
In the end it was really a gorgeous drive and I posted quite a few images in my moblog
(look for aug 27 dates) http://kumimonster.tumblr.com (moblog)
Unfortunately, by the time I got well up north to the Avenue of the Giants it was turning dark so I decided to make any stops on my return journey.
We did a lot on the first day.
Shot quite a bit of product sets including a super cute outfit a fan sent from Japan
we also did some really cool plastic sheeting stuff in the evening.
on the 2nd day after arrival we went for breakfast at an old whorehouse
yummy food!
then went n did some errands. i got these awesome toe socks.
(mom has decided to take them so i get the pink ones with green frogs)
that day we also went to the animal/farm supply shop. they got a huge 6ft diameter feed bin for me to be dunked in
ended up doing a white/red latex set but didn't get it right-on. spent too much time on it as well so that's all we got done that day.
that evening we headed to a local casino for dinner. yum yum.
the next day, it was back to the whore house for eggs benedict. yum yum!
and a live jazzy music too
this day we did a lot better.
we did a set where i got to wear these crazy 'boot heel' shoes.
remember that W spread with bruce willis and his wife that came out recently?
well seems medical toys supplied some of the props and these shoes didn't end up getting used.
each 'shoe' is a single piece of metal which curves from the back of the knee to the ball of the foot.
leather straps hold it against the leg and it forces the foot into a high heel position.
well, actually, they're ballet trainers so you're supposed to be in pointe position but i wore them as heels standing up.
photos soon!
the night shoots were FREEZING. did video where i got SOAKED in that COLD COLD steel tub of water!
the next day more errands n more shoots.
n more food too.
nom nom.

Eureka, as i mentioned before, was super!
but then eventually i had to drive home and that was awesome too,
it took a while but i wasn't rushed and i got to really check out the scenery since it was dark by the time i got that far north on the drive up.
i stopped off in leggett to play tourist and check out the drive-thru tree.
i didn't drive thru tho. just took fotos.
(moblog photos are from Sept 02 - more at the moblog as usual)
i ended up with a tan, but also stupid lines.
shoulda drove without the straps on my top earlier
fucking awesome view in real life. my camera sucks
quick marina detour
uphill n downhill
right in front of city hall some healthcare people were demonstrating.
saw really cute cops
but then realized i was kind of weird looking with the pink hair on and they were like really normal cute.
then did the rest of the drive listening to blondie and the beach boys.
by the time i reached palo alto my butt was partially asleep!
