Slice of Life Vol. 83
Pufferbilly Day photos highlight this collection. The Kate Shelley Museum in Mongoina is why I know that if you are very lucky, you can stumble upon a rattlesnake in Boone County.
Bennett Family Pictures
This post is somewhat bittersweet as these pictures were taken before my Mom’s diagnosis and while she was still being treated by the incompetent doctor.

Meet the Bennetts
On the Sunday before Labor Day I hosted a little Bennett Family Reunion. Although none of the Fort Dodge Bennetts attended, I think it was a rousing success. It was the first reunion of its kind in at least 20 years. I hope that we can have another one next… Read More »Meet the Bennetts

Post 1200
As you may recall, I like to check in on some statistics every 100 posts or so to see how things are doing in popularity. However, this statistical check-in will mark the end of an era. I am officially retiring the Snapshots Gallery and the Artistic Gallery. The advent of… Read More »Post 1200

Slice of Life Vol. 58
I think that at least a couple of these pictures were taken by Carla as you can see her reflection in the bank window. Also, if anybody was curious what my patio chairs looked like when they were in good shape (or before the shabby chic look), you will find… Read More »Slice of Life Vol. 58
