After months of hype, Naima and I finally were able to make our 1st trip to the Ames Dog Park recently. Unfortunately, despite having a very good park system, Boone does not have a dog park. This is a hint for any would-be future Boone mayoral candidates out there. If… Read More »Dog Park

I added another lens to my arsenal recently. For many a moon I have longed for a fisheye lens. However, for a lens of limited use, the prices are often astronomical.
