How to…
Here you’ll find the posts where I talk more about the nuts and bolts of keeping a field journal or just the organizational details of what I’m doing. What you choose to track and record is completely up to you.

Yellowstone Travel Journal – Part 2
And the tour through my travel journal for Yellowstone continues… I’ve added in a few of the 7 Gypsies Postale Index Cards and decided to add in some Yellowstone Note cards I have that are by artist Linda Lillegraven at Big Horn Galleries. I love the idea of looking specifically for… Read more...
Yellowstone Travel Journal – Part One
I posted a bit about the travel album I’m creating for all of my planned trips to Yellowstone this year. It’s coming together well – the inspiration gleaned from Ali Edwards’ online class, Scrapbook on the Road, helped immensely. I’m blending that with a product to be available… Read more...
YNP Album
This year I have quite a few Yellowstone trips planned, some with Mike, some on my own, and a few friends have expressed an interest in joining me on a trip or two. I purchased and was completely inspired by Ali Edwards’ Scrapbook on the Road class – and am thoroughly liking how this Field… Read more...
WITL Monday
Computer issues ate the work I had done on Sunday – the day we traveled back home again, so I’ll have to rework it at some point, but when that happens, I stop because I keep trying to recreate what was instead of just creating new. All I have so far for notes from this amazingly busy day… Read more...
WITL: Saturday
On Saturday, while I have the field notes with details of what we did, I wasn’t inspired to write them, so instead did a bit of ‘Right Now Journaling’…while it’s really a bunch of random thoughts, they can easily become the basis for a more in depth bit of writing if I… Read more...
WITL: Friday – Travel Day
I took notes in my field notes notebook I’m using for Week in the Life (to be added in an envelope at the end) and paused for a bit in the evening on this day to write up the day’s events and observations. There are more photos I took that will be included on the blank sides of my field… Read more...
WITL: Cover
I know some of you following me are not really scrapbookers, but what you may have in mind as ‘scrapbooking’ may not fit with the reality of what’s created these days. Here’s my cover layout – taken at Green Mountain Reservoir as we were flying by in the car. I love how… Read more...
Week in the Life: The Plan
Week in the Life this year comes at an interesting juncture for me. The process I plan to use is the result of about a year of thought and planning and test driving various products. I love reading Ali Edwards‘ blog – she balances and integrates the process and products in a way that lets… Read more...
Week in the Life Week
This next week I’ll be jumping in on Ali Edwards’ completely inspiring project, Week in the Life. If you scrapbook, you may know of it. If not, you take a week of your life (she does it each year) and record it. Really record it. Here are a few of the pages from last year: I jumped… Read more...
Field Journal Entry 3 April 2012
Thought I’d share my journal entry from yesterday as I took quite a bit of time to just observe behavior. I wrote this mainly using just the field notes I took throughout the day, but wanted to write it up more fully before the details fade or merge with what I see today. ••••••••• Bird… Read more...
