Saturday morning I took Brandon’s Senior pictures. I’d like to share some of my favorite pictures from that photo shoot. It is good to take pictures of somebody that doesn’t mind when you need to stop to take some quality frog pictures.
Last Thursday, the Cyclones began their long return from the abyss. Last year the Cyclones were embarrassed at The Jack in their opening game of the season. This year they took another step towards redemption by routing their opening opponent. The South Dakota State Jackrabbits were not a match for… Read More »The Long Road Back (Part 1)
A couple more pictures that were not selected. I took this picture last year when Jay went on his first ever trip on the Boone & Scenic Valley Railroad. I threw this particular picture into the mix to see if anybody would consider selecting this picture because of the nature… Read More »Estranged
I love the gardens at the State Fair. Pretty, but not quite as tasty as some shaved ice.
A random selection of pictures from my trip to the State Fair with my Mom, Jay and Teresa. Ran into Jeff and Yin on the shuttle to the Fair. My new favorite hat. My favorite State Fair Food. (I firmly believe that “food on a stick” is for tourists.) Pioneer… Read More »State Fair Olla Podrida

I had a rare busy Saturday. Although admittedly a lot of my Saturday was spent watching other people do stuff or sleeping on a wet lounger. Perhaps the highlight of my Saturday was trying the taco dip that spawned Monica’s world famous taco dip. I should have gotten a picture… Read More »Images from a Saturday

Duff flooded a few hundred feet from the Computer Mine on Friday. The woods behind the Computer Mine flooded as well. I think all this water caused some of the animals from the woods to be a little more active near the building. Earlier this year I figured out that… Read More »More From Friday
On May 18, 1980 three things happened. 1. Mt. St. Helens erupted. 2. Stephanie Kasper was born. 3. I turned 5. 5 years earlier I was born. A cousin of mine once gave my two sisters and I the very backhanded compliment that we turned out pretty well considering the… Read More »Mt. St. Helens Anniversary

I rarely discuss the weather, but that was some storm last night. I wish I had some pictures of that storm to post, but I don’t. I spent last night inside, like a coward. Rather than outdoors taking lightning pictures. Not because I am a coward, but because Crossroads just… Read More »Some Storm
I’m not the type of person that grouses about their job all that much. That is mostly because I enjoy my job and I have only a modicum of responsibility. Plus for the most part, very few people can screw me over in my job. So the co-workers that I… Read More »A Couple Computer Mine Thoughts

VEISHEA was cold. A little bit miserable. However, there were some highlights. It took me awhile to see them because I was pretty upset that the good fried cheese curd stand was not there, but I eventually got over it. Who am I kidding? I’m still fuming about it. I… Read More »VEISHEA
I went over to Suzie and Eric’s for T Night. I was pretty sure that the night would conclude with Suzie conceding that she was too far behind in the race for Monica’s Friend of the Year 2008 that she should just do the gracious thing and bow out of… Read More »T Night
I made a trip through Jester Park yesterday to see if the road to the bison was open yet. It was not open, but I did take a few pictures of some geese hanging out there.
I was sitting at work today minding my own business when an e-mail fluttered across cyberspace and into my inbox. Technically it was two e-mails. I now share with you what was contained in those e-mails, namely pictures from Jen’s camera of the Oscar Party. Jen in her Fur Coat… Read More »Oscar Pictures from Jen
