Hello,
My name is Emily and I am the author behind many of the beautiful and educational books you can find through our brand. I would like to be the first to welcome you to our brand. Our organization is more than just a book publisher. We are actually a collection of educators, tech wizards, and explorers. I grew up as an only child in a military family. Always moving around meant very long and very boring trips often. To keep my mind busy, I always loved to read. Even from a young age, I loved the idea that a story can take you as far away as you allow it to. I also began to develop a passion for photography. Always moving meant it was important for me to document what I saw around myself before it changed again. As I got older, I became an educator, but I never forgot how powerful photos can be in helping inspire dreams and spur imagination and made sure to include them whenever possible while teaching.2020 has turned out to be a very challenging year for the majority of the world, and I was no different. Soon after the pandemic hit, I lost a job that I loved and was hugely passionate about. I felt lost and adrift in a time that was, quite frankly, pretty bleak. I walked my dog a lot during those early days of unemployment. I always enjoyed my outings, not only because it got me out of the house, but also because people were always happy to see my dog. Wherever we went, people smiled and seemed to come alive. This was my inspiration. I needed to get back out there and start doing good again. To tell stories that are fun and heartwarming. That was the inspiration for these books and our website. I thought we could do more. Allow for the reader to do more. Give readers not only good stories but ownership and creative control over their material in a way that hasn’t been done before. We are constantly trying to innovate. To allow readers to push the boundaries between art and reading. In doing so, we created Mymichelangelo.com.The TeamI also realized that I knew many people that could help create heartwarming and interesting books. I am fortunate to know a number of people from many walks of life, many of which had interesting stories to tell and engaging photographs to work with. Many of them are part time photographers. They are also divers, explorers, guides, and adventurers. I felt that they could all help tell great stories. Our content contributors live all over the globe and are international. Many more of their wonderful stories will be told in the coming months as their books are finished. Whether you are reading one of our pre-made books, opted to make a personal scrapbook, or even just ordered a stylized print of photos, we work hard to ensure our customers are able to engage with literature and art in new and creative ways.
Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park California
Northern Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park is a state park in California, located along California’s scenic route 1 on the Pacific coast. The park commemorates Julia Pfeiffer an early pioneer of this once remote region. Julia Pfeiffer was born in 1868 and moved to the Big Sur coast with her parents to run a cattle ranch. She became widely known in the area for being a hardworking and pioneering woman. A main feature of the park is McWay Falls, which drops over a cliff of 80 feet into the Pacific Ocean. The park is also home to 300-foot redwoods which are over 2,500 years old.
Yosemite California
June 30th, 1864, 52 years before the national park service was founded Yosemite Valley and Mariposa Grove was designated a protected site by President Abraham Lincoln. It was the first time in U.S. history that land was designated for public use and preservation and is viewed by many as the birth of the national parks system. 26 years later on October 1, 1890, Yosemite became a national park, and more than 125 years later, it’s still wowing visitors. While the park is most notably recognized for the granite monolith known as El Capitan that features nearly vertical walls and stands 7,569 feet above sea level and Half Dome a granite dome at the eastern end of Yosemite Valley standing at 8,839 feet above sea level, named for its distinct shape. One side is a sheer face while the other three sides are smooth and round, making it appear like a dome cut in half. Yosemite is also its also home to one of the tallest waterfalls on the planet. At 2,425 feet tall Yosemite Falls is the 6th tallest falls in the world. The falls itself is composed of 3 different falls, Upper Yosemite Fall, the middle cascades, and Lower Yosemite Fall. If Half Dome looks familiar it might be because the granite dome is used as the model for the North Face symbol.
