Slice of Life Vol. 118
I’m wondering if one of these pictures is of the Hideaway and the Short Stop.

I’m pretty sure most of these have been posted before, but my filing system got messed up a bit.
Slice of Life Vol. 116
I just had a few negative ends to scan this week, so only 3 pictures. I did mess up the some of the scanner settings on this collection, but that should be corrected for next week.
Slice of Life Vol. 114
Not sure that I haven’t posted these images before because my organizational system got messed up. I believe most of these pictures were taken in Wilson’s Tap.

I think the bird in these picutres was named Mike. He died by flying into a wall. I’m not sure where the farm pictures were taken, so if you know. Leave a comment.

Now that I am caught back up, I’d like to step back and take stock of where this journal has went since its inception on August 9, 2006. Since the last time I looked at these statistics, I have completed changed galleries. I can no longer show you what are… Read More »Blog No. 1447

Hard to believe, but with this entry in An Artist’s Notebook, I am officially caught up. Didn’t think I’d ever get here. Pictures from Herman Park, including the pavilion before a stage was constructed for the City Band highlight this collection. Now I just need to stay on schedule!

Something that happened in a couple of these photos is that the film didn’t wind forward all the way. It is something I love and a reminder of the good old film days! It is hard for me to imagine Fraser having as many people as are in that picture,… Read More »Slice of Life Vol. 111

Time has not been kind to some of these negatives, but they do still exist. More pictures of Boone legend Pockets. Also a picture of my Great Aunt Ellen, who was/is a saint! There are also pictures of pictures of the old Bennett coal mine near Rippey, Iowa. You didn’t… Read More »Slice of Life Vol. 110

I’m fairly certain that the sledding pictures feature the hill in old Blair Park. I don’t remember that hill being a mountain or anything, but I thought it was at least more impressive than that.
Slice of Life Vol. 108
This is another one of my favorite collections. Not just because it features a picture of my pet rabbit Fluffy that is vaguely reminiscent of the classic of American cinema Night of the Lepus. But also because it features pictures of the 1385. When I was a kid I’m pretty… Read More »Slice of Life Vol. 108

Pictures from Pufferbilly Days and a couple positives of a bridge that doesn’t stand any longer. If I were to guess, it is either the Old 30 bridge over the Des Moines River OR possibly the old Water Works Bridge. Although, it very well might be the Wagon Wheel Bridge.… Read More »Slice of Life Vol. 107

Looks like when I was a kid I was a pain killer addict for Halloween. If you’ve been wondering about what I have been calling experimental negatives, they are actually not negatives, but positives. Some of them were used to make composite images. I don’t know who the person is… Read More »Slice of Life Vol. 106

Milton Lott’s grave and some experimental photos in this collection. Email me if you don’t know the historical importance of Milton Lott.
Slice of Life Vol. 104
A few pictures of Boone legend Pockets in this collection. I also find the pictures of Story and Mamie to be particularly interesting and nostalgic.
Slice of Life Vol. 100
Pictures of the Boone County Covrt Hovse highlight this collection. We don’t have the prettiest Covrt Hovse in Iowa, but it isn’t bad.
