However all of these pictures were taken in Pocahontas County, Webster County, and Hamilton County.

So many of the folders 2010-10-04, 2010-10-11, 2010-10-12, 2010-10-15, and 2010-10-16 had so few images, that I decided to make a mega conglomeration. There are pictures here that were used for THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE (back then known as the RANDOM WEEKLY PHOTO EXPERIMENT) and pictures used for the program… Read More »2010-10-04, 2010-10-11, 2010-10-12, 2010-10-15, and 2010-10-16
There aren’t many pictures in the folder 2009-04-11, so I’m publishing photos from the folder 2009-04-20. The pictures from the folder 2009-04-11 are from when Derrick and Jen moved into their new house. They moved about a month after I moved. They have since moved again. I have not. They… Read More »2009-04-11 & 2009-04-20
The pictures in the folder 2009-04-07/Electric_Car are from a trip I took out to the Junck Farm with Sara. We went out there shortly after her parentals had purchased an electric car from 1925. I had no clue that they made electric cars in the 1920s. It seems weird that… Read More »2009-04-07/Electric_Car

Sometime in late 2008 my organizational process of my photos went all FUBAR. The result is that it appears that I have actually lost several images from late 2008 and early 2009. None of the lost pictures are of much consequence, but it is annoying nonetheless. Part of this breakdown… Read More »12December2008
There is quite the collection of images in the folder called 10-13-08. I can’t possibly include all of them in this here entry, so I’ll just have to pick out a few that I like the most. The pictures range from Gyro Day at the Computer Mine to the Ames… Read More »10-13-08
Way back in August I was invited out to the Junck farm to play with his drone. That was the moment I officially got drone fever. I played with the drone for at least 45 minutes. I would share some pictures from that experience, but I have yet to see… Read More »Organized Lightning
Way back in October of 2017, Jesse and I took Nader to Gilbert (a town I despise) to visit the people in the church that sponsored Nader when he first came to the United States. While we were there, we visited his friend Gene. Gene was one of Nader’s initial… Read More »Gilbert Cars
REMINDER It is once again time for me (and by me, I mean you guys) to pick out my photos to enter in the Pufferbilly Days Photo Contest. Once again, I am going to leave it up to a popular vote. The Pufferbilly Days Photo Contest allows you to enter… Read More »The Juncks – Vol. 1
The world was not ready for these ROAD TRIP pictures on Monday. It is highly doubtful that the world is ready for these ROAD TRIP pictures now, but I can’t hold them back any longer. This is not an endorsement of Rick Young for Hardin County Supervisor, although he has… Read More »I’m Not Complaining, I’m Just Being Honest, I Promise That I Will Not Beg for Respect, No!
As you become aged, you get invited to less and less parties. I think I was invited to 3 toddler birthday parties and 1 anniversary party last year. I think that was it. My entire social calendar for 2017. The anniversary party was for the parents of Sara and Steven… Read More »Happy Anniversary Juncks!
Back in August I went up to Minnesota to visit some of my favorite peeps, but I also had an ulterior motive. For years I’ve driven up to the Twin Cities area and just south of Lakeville I would come across a strange collection of sculptures on the east side… Read More »My Minnesota Spirit Animal
A couple months back Mom, Teresa, Logan, and I hopped into a vehicle of some kind and headed due east for famous What Cheer, Iowa and it’s even more famous flea market. It didn’t disappoint. I think a person could spend all day there and still not see all the… Read More »All the Fleas!
On Father’s Day the Methodist Men held their first car show. For a first time event, it was quite the success! There were 7 cars there and almost everybody in church came out and looked at and gawked and asked questions about the classic cars. Next year I anticipate getting… Read More »Father’s Day Car Show
These pictures didn’t have what it takes to make the cut for RURAL for this week’s WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE. Perhaps, some of them are just me playing with new camera settings: I don’t know. Maybe if these images just believed in themselves, they could accomplish something… something great.
Here is the April image for the 2017 Photography 139 Calendar: This picture goes into a category (it is a fairly stacked category) of, “I really love this photo but I’m not sure many other people will.” Different strokes for different folks. I love pictures of deterioration. Plus the license… Read More »2017 Photography 139 Calendar April
Here is a collection of pictures that didn’t make the THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE cut for ROAD TRIP: Thanks for taking the time to help me mock this pathetic collection of losers.
ROAD TRIP saw some of the regulars drop out, but the ones that did participate went all in. But you don’t want to listen to me talk all tommyrot about participation rates. You just want to see the submissions. Here they are: Becky Perkovich 1 Becky Perkovich 2 Becky Perkovich… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 59 – ROAD TRIP
This dump of photos from the backlog are from when Micky and I delivered some crates for work to this group of people forming some kind of art thing in the old grain elevator in west Ames. It was my favorite day of work all year! The place was falling… Read More »Backlog Photo Dump: Reliable Street
Here are some pictures from a trip to Kansas to see Nate: There is so, so, so, so much more in the backlog. But at least this was a start.
