Namsan Tower in the fall

 On Veterans Day we decided to take advantage of the day off and go to Namsan Tower.  We had a bit of trouble finding a place to park so eventually we parked at a museum near the base of the tower.
 The museum is dedicated to Korean anti-Japanese activists.  Outside there is a large bronze statue of An Jung-geun, an activist turned assassin who killed Japan's first prime minister Ito Hirobumi in 1909 just as the Japanese Empire was close to finalizing its annexation of Korea.  To Koreans and many Chinese, he is considered a patriot hero.
 We began our trek up Namsan.  It seams like the leaves changed much later this year which made for beautiful scenery along the trail.
 At the trail head, a man was making leaf hearts.
 Logan and Addy found a new canine friend along the way.  I sure hope that some day I can get Logan a dog.  He is never happier than when he is petting a and loving on a dog.

Addy in Seoul summer 2013

 This summer Addy had quite a few modeling jobs.  She is building up a pretty good college fund and having a blast in the process.
 This shot took us up near the Yongsan Gu office building by Itaewon.
 This was the first shoot that I had ever gone to.  I was excited to see her in action.  Sadie was cracking me up... she is such a silly bug.
 One of the most important parts of modeling is stuffing your face with doughnuts.
 What a pretty smile.  She has her mom's eyes.
 Sadie making herself at home.
 Back in the good old days when I was still drinking zero... I miss that stuff.  1 month clean and counting :)
 This shoot was for a winter line so Addy dressed up warm and they made it snow in September.
 Here is her stylin photographer.
 I climbed up on the roof to get this one.
 Pretty green leaf.
  Addy is a natural at this.

 Here she is sporting some ski gear.
 I think I will bring her along this year when Logan and I go skiing.
 One more outfit...
 And an iced chocolate for the road.
