To a Great 2017!

Pretend like I published this on January 1, just like I meant to do. It is that day at Photography 139 Headquarters where we take down our old Photography 139 Calendar and put it in the trunk with many of the other remnants of our past. We like to think… Read More »To a Great 2017!

Beggar’s Alley

My cousin Travis and his family set up their own haunted house every year for Halloween because my family don’t play. This year, I went over and took a few photos: If you aren’t in my family, it is okay for you to be sad that you aren’t in my… Read More »Beggar’s Alley

Happy Thanksgiving!

I didn’t get around to wishing people Happy Thanksgiving this year through my normal channels. So, if you are used to getting some kind of message from me on Thanksgiving, Easter, or Christmas (for example) but didn’t get anything from me this year… don’t lose heart. Nobody didn’t get nothin’… Read More »Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Jayoween

05-19-07

There are a ton of pictures in good old 05-19-07. Probably should’ve broken this up into different posts, but that is quitter talk! Next Saturday’s post will be much shorter, I’m sure.

Discoverbee

Yesterday, Baby Got Rack competed at the State Fair barbecue contest. After we got the pork and the chicken on the smoker, we had a couple of hours to kill. We smoke the chicken and pork for close to two hours and then we allow the meat to rest another… Read More »Discoverbee

Happy Naima Day!

I hope many of you got out and celebrated Naima Day! It has now been almost 5 years since I drove home from a farm near Hubbard with America’s favorite dog. Here are a couple of pictures of her to help you celebrate! Mark your calendars! Only 365 days until… Read More »Happy Naima Day!

Daisylicious

Here are a few daisies from the Iowa Arboretum. I was surprised how spry their daisies still are considering that my daisies went the way of the dodo bird almost a month ago.

The Final Manos

I realize I never posted the MANOS pictures that were used in the Birthday Party FAQ or in the actual invitation. I also forgot to thank Derrick earlier for being the fire starter during the party. The MANOS images: I’ll be retiring the THE MASTER costume to a wall in… Read More »The Final Manos

Jesus Eggs!

On the Saturday before Easter I was sitting in a darkened in theater in Ankeny experiencing the “tortures of the damned” that is watching BATMAN VS. SUPERMAN, my phone buzzed. Since the movie picture had lost my interest moments into it, I felt no guilt in checking my text message.… Read More »Jesus Eggs!

Matthew 28:6

I took a couple of other images before picking my Easter image. Here are the other 2. One I actually sent out with Happy Easter text messages. In the end, I found the Jesus statue to be a bit confusing and the cross on top my church to be derivative… Read More »Matthew 28:6

Happy Easter!

I would like to take this time to wish everybody a Happy Easter with this picture: I hope all of you had as wonderful of an Easter weekend as I did. Christ is risen. Let us rejoice!
