Skin to Win

A lifetime ago I knew this girl that was entering a wet t-shirt contest. She was explaining to Jesse, Jay and I her strategy for winning this contest. We tried our best to explain to her that there really is only one strategy for winning a wet t-shirt contest. That… Read More »Skin to Win

Arizona Day 6

Day 6 in Arizona was more work. At the conclusion of the work day, we were bused out into the “middle of the desert” for a “western roundup” party. If you could get away from the cheeseball band that was lip syncing and playing to backing tracks, it was a… Read More »Arizona Day 6

Arizona Day 4

Jesse and I woke up in Coolidge, Arizona and made our way to a local diner for breakfast. This place was certainly McCain Country. We sat at the breakfast counter and listened to a couple locals complain about the governor for “being nice” to Obama. They agreed that the governor… Read More »Arizona Day 4

Arizona Day 2

More than a bit behind. Some pictures from Day 2 in Arizona. The day mostly consisted of bumming around with Jesse’s family. We saw a few random Cubs. We had dinner with Colleen and Kirk.

Lunchtography

The picture below is what greeted me on Thursday as I left the Computer Mine on my lunch break. In retrospect, I should have taken the time to take a decent picture. Rather this one out my car window while I was stopped at a stoplight.

Test Post

I moved my website to a different server so that I could get my galleries up and going again. This is a test post to see if An Artist’s Notebook is in the ballpark of being functional again. Here is a test picture. Hopefully this works out.

Selected Pictures

This year I took a different route selecting pictures for the Photo Contest. I put together 20 pictures and then had certain people select and name 1 picture from that list. I then entered those pictures. I liked the way this process worked out. I will do it again in… Read More »Selected Pictures

President Lincoln Church Sign Church Bus Sculpture Sculpture Teresa and Ernie Home of some great fudge. Kentucky Dam Crane Lunch Ernie Desecration Unofficial Southerner Citizen of… Read More »Kentucky – Day 3

Enigmatic

So I went on a small cruise around Boone County with Becky on Monday night. Here are a few images from that experience. What I learned about Becky from this trip is that there is a strange inconsistency in a person that claims that Halloween is their favorite holiday, but… Read More »Enigmatic

3 Things

Relay for Life So Relay for Life is coming up pretty darn quick. As it turns out I forgot to start raising money. I have raised some money, but that money consisted of me sitting on my rump when somebody came up to me and threw some cash into my… Read More »3 Things

Sunset

I hope that some people had a chance to catch the sunset last night. It was lovely.

More From Friday

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

Playing in the Mud

Tonight was the night that the Jaycees planted and tended to our Flower Garden in Brookside Park. 3 of us showed up to do it. Here are some dark and grainy and poor pictures from the experience. I’ll most likely post pictures of the flowers as the year progresses or… Read More »Playing in the Mud

New Toy

I got a new toy for the camera in the mail yesterday. I did some experimenting with it. I know some cynics out there are thinking: “Wow you bought a toy that takes blurry pictures, congratulations.” I would only respond with a smile and say, “Yes I did!”

Foggy

It was a bit foggy on the way to work. Here are some pictures from my commute. Looking down South Benton The alley across the street Leaving town on Mamie This semi was so slow Dickcissel Park Road next to Dickcissel Park Entrance ramp US 30 It is probably rather… Read More »Foggy

This Morning

I was kind of surprised when I woke up this morning and looked outside to see everything covered in a thick blanket of snow. It was an unpleasant surprise to find that nobody on the highway wanted to drive over 40 while I was on my way to work. I… Read More »This Morning

Test Camera

A few months ago Nader gave me a camera to test for his trip to London. I put in a roll of film and took some test shots. Then I put the camera away and forgot about it. I finally finished off the roll and got it developed. I thought… Read More »Test Camera
