There are a limited amount of places a guy can go to get real black and white film processed. One of them is a local company that I will not name. I’ve had very poor results going to them.

While I was going through the long process of changing this website over to a different server, I fell behind in my duties. That isn’t too big of a deal, except one of the days that I missed a post on was Thursday, October 16, 2008. So I beseech you… Read More »Happy Birthday Becky!

Two more pictures that were not selected. It took me some time to actually find one of these old merry-go-rounds. I searched high and low and only found one in Boone. Perhaps there is another one somewhere, but the only one I could find was at the Trinity playground. The… Read More »Spurned

To answer the question: “Yes I took that picture of Shannon in the Des Moines Register”. I thought would post some of my favorite pictures from the photo shoot that will no doubt launch her modeling career. Watching all that soap making makes me want to go buy some soap.

On Saturday we visited a tobacco farm, went to Newson’s (home of the famous hot dog sauce), visited Paducah and then ate at Lambert’s.

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.
