About Me

Have a look at my recently updated website when you get a chance. WEN GRIFFIN DESIGN
I am Wen. A happy hep-kat living amongst the joshua trees, wind, and poppies an hour outside of Los Angeles. Frequently enough I make my way down to the LA area to chill, take photos, and be amongst my family and friends. I love the city, but prefer the wide open spaces of the high desert. You can actually see stars at night and there are many spots to be hiking at.
I recently became a google earth and sky addict. Sky? Wha? Yeah seriously, launch Google Earth and go to view and then click on switch to sky mode. And for those of you who know how much I'm into astronomy, well this might as well be a daily dose of crack for me. I'm hooked. So many places, so little time.

So I went outside and looked up at the sky to make sure it wasn't gonna fall in on me, alas it was beautiful and blue and not a hint of space debris in site. I told this to my Dad a while later and he...
