Here is a picture of the mist from Minnehaha Falls from my trip there with Bethany. Or more precisely it is a picture of Minnehaha Falls where its mist has covered my camera.
You may be getting an idea of how incredibly slick and dangerous this little photo excursion ended it being.

I’ve written in the past about the treachery of the footing on my recent trip to Minnehaha Falls with Bethany.
This is the picture I took after I biffed it. Hard.
I’m sorry this is late… but you know… life.

On my recent trip to Minneapolis I efforted to photograph Minnehaha Falls.
Below is a picture from those efforts. (Waterfall not included)
Bethany and Tempe accompanied me on this trip. It was then that she revealed to me that her favorite way to break the law iS to illegally park. My favorite way to break the law is to trespass to take photographs. Although what really constitutes trespassing, really?
The trail to get down to THE falls was chained off, but since the area was already lousy with people, I pressed on. As soon as I got to the bottom of the stairs it became incredibly evident why this trail was closed down. The trail was a victim of the perfect storm of slippery. Packed snow, that had melted and then froze over. Then to add another layer of slick, the mist from the waterfall was falling onto the trail and freezing.
I managed to only bite it hard one time. Not on this picture though.
Don’t worry Bethany and Tempe stayed safe up top.

And her folks back in Manhattan didn’t want her or her bundle…
So she took her child and caught an evening train…
She found a job in Denver washing dishes in a diner…
At least it buys her baby milk to drink…
He once told her she was pretty…
But the only ring it got her…
Was the ring of grease that runs around the sink…
Yes she lay beside him gentle…
‘Cause he told her that he loved her…
And he made her dance before the music played…
But at least she didn’t beg him…
She’d rather wash her dishes…
It makes her feel as if her hands are clean…
HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY from PHOTOGRAPHY 139!
A look at the view of Manhattan from Manhattan Hill.
I’ll most likely be doing a dump of the rest of the images from my trip to visit Nate and Laura at some point next week.

This is a view of a Manhattan sunset from Manhattan Hill Park.
The people of Kansas think very highly of their sunsets. Or so I’ve been told.

When you read the subject of this entry, you probably thought that this post was going to be about the Iowa Caucuses, but actually it is an image from my most recent trip to visit Nate and Laura.
Behold!
Laura tells me that it is quite the thing for people of Manhattan to get their picture taken in the “A hole” of the giant Manhattan sign that graces their skyline.
For the record, I’ve never consider the blank parts of letters to be holes. I guess that is just me.

Here it is… the picture that got me kicked out of the Iowa State Flower Garden…
But don’t worry, I probably still got at least a couple of pictures from the state fair trip to come.
