Day 3 was the only day we spent entirely in Orlando. It was one full day too many. Orlando is flat out one of the worst cities I’ve ever visited. It is dirty. It is poorly laid out. There is no culture. There is no music. There is no historical… Read More »Camping World Bowl Road Trip Day 3 – The Game
Welcome to the 3,500th entry in “An Artist’s Notebook”. The blog portion of my Photography 139 website. It has been along time since I first took keyboard hand sitting in the old Computer Mine setup or possibly in my Mom’s basement, because that is where my life was at that… Read More »An Artist’s Notebook Post #3,500
RED was another extremely popular theme. In fact, I daresay that these last few weeks have been the most successful weeks in the history of THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE. But you didn’t come here to listen to me talk all tommyrot about participation rates. You came to see the submissions:… Read More »WPC – WEEK 206 – RED
I woke up Wednesday morning and it was the first night I got something that resembled sleep. My hair was starting to look greasy as the ice cold shower wasn’t being 100% effective in washing out the travel shampoo-conditioner combo I had brought on the trip. We got up and… Read More »Rapid City Mission Trip – Day 3
I should start this day by saying Happy Independence Day! Our country has seen much better days than right now, but I still believe that our best days our head of us. You know, a day when we aren’t locking children in cages and our “leaders” aren’t bowing down and… Read More »Rapid City Mission Trip – Day 2
Mission Trip Day 1 started with a 6 AM walk around Rapid City. This is a Mission Trip tradition started by Andy. He takes people out for a 6 AM walk every day of the mission trip. I don’t join every day, but I usually join a couple times during… Read More »Rapid City Mission Trip – Day 1

These pictures were taken in Arizona as the vacation part of the trip was starting to wind down and the business… Read More »2009-02-18 – Arizona Day 3
There are several folders inside the folder called 2009-02-18, so rather than having one of those fifty photo journal entries, I’ve decided to break them down by the subfolder. This subfolder is called ARIZONA_DAY_2. The pictures in this folder are from when I went to Arizona with Jesse on a… Read More »2009-02-18 – Arizona Day 2

Seems like a good time to share my favorite pictures from THE SELFIE PROJECT from April. I’ve been trying to be more interesting with the pictures, or at least more interesting with my life, since it felt like in January and February I didn’t do anything. I don’t know if… Read More »Selfie Project – April
A couple weekends back up I went to Minnesota to check out the Final Four festivities and check-in with a few people I hadn’t seen for a long time.

After doing our “horns down” gesture, we loaded back into the car and headed north. Hoping to get deep into the heart of Oklahoma before bedding down for the night. Leaving Austin we made a stop at Buc-ee’s. If you ever make it to Texas, I can’t strongly recommend stopping… Read More »Alamo Bowl Road Trip: Triplets
We gave her a hug. Loaded back up in the rental and left Waco profoundly changed in a way that is hard to figure. My best guess is that it would be the way you would change if you saw the Vietnam War Memorial with a veteran of the Vietnam… Read More »Alamo Bowl Road Trip: Alamo Bowl

While the game didn’t turn out the way that we… Read More »Alamo Bowl Road Trip – Phonetos
Happy New Year to people who celebrate such things. I like to look at some meaningless statistics every 250 posts and I also look at fairly meaningless year end statistics. Just so happens that I get to combine them today!! Here is both a year in review and a celebration… Read More »Post #3252 – 2018 Year in Review
The pictures in the folder 08-03-08 is from the third day of my vacation in Kentucky with Teresa. On that day, we went to a Southern Baptist Church service. We spent 3 hours at the church service, before we snuck out the back. I’m not sure how much long it… Read More »08-03-08
