You might not know this about me, but I enjoy spending time in ditches looking for something to photograph. I recently found this flower in a ditch. It is actually hard for me to drive in the country this time of year because the ditches are so beautiful with green… Read More »Ditches Please!
The remainder of my Mission Trip photos. Unfortunately, I don’t have pictures of much of the remaining week. Jay painting the floor corner. Elizabeth and Megan painting the floor. On Tuesday, The Family House seemed to peter out of jobs for us to do. Late in the afternoon they brought… Read More »Milwaukee Mission Trip Vol. 2
I thought I was going to write a really long breakdown of my trip to Milwaukee with my church’s youth group for Mission Work. Instead, I think I’ll settle for a description with each photo. Maybe I’ll be more ambitious with Volume 2. Halfway between Madison and Milwaukee, we found… Read More »Milwaukee Mission Trip Vol. 1
Participation took a little bit of hit this week. I’m sure it probably had to do a bit with the fact that there are only 2 times a day somebody could take a picture for this theme. If they were taking the theme literally. Or maybe something else caused a… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 43 – SUNRISE/SUNSET

I’m not 100% sure where I took the photos in the folder 04-29-07, but my best guess is Ada Hayden. Next Saturday’s walk down Memory Lane will involve more deer!
Here are a few daisies from the Iowa Arboretum. I was surprised how spry their daisies still are considering that my daisies went the way of the dodo bird almost a month ago.

Took this photo of Naima as we were cruising for one of our walks on the backside of McHose Park. I don’t recommend you attempt this photo, unless you are as skilled of a driver as I am. Just sayin’… Great hands also help. Big hands wouldn’t hurt either. PARTICULARS… Read More »Car Ride!
I used the late parts of my vacation to try to look at my hometown through the eyes of a tourist. Let’s face it, Boone actually has some really cool unique aspects to it that most people take for granted. One of those things that people take for granted is… Read More »Not from France

A picture of Karma, some flower pictures, and a Thomas Merton quote is what I found in the folder named 04-18-07. Looks like deer photos will be the feature in the next walk down my memory lane.
I have to say that my lilies have been on fleek this year. I just hope I don’t break my arm patting myself on the back. There are a literal ton of lily pictures in the hopper. I hope you like such things. PARTICULARS CAMERA: SONY SLT-A65V ISO: 100 FOCAL… Read More »Hometeam
I don’t have the best hollyhock patch this year, but the ones I do have, the area insects find to be quite tasty. Leaving designs that I like to photograph. Obviously this image might have been touched by Photoshop, but we don’t need to get into all that jazz. PARTICULARS… Read More »Mmmmmm… Delicious!
I spent a good chunk of a couple of my vacation days doing yard work. While I was moving my woodpile, I came across this fascinating creature. I just wish that we would’ve gotten to know each other better. PARTICULARS CAMERA: SONY SLT-A65V ISO: 100 FOCAL LENGTH: 60mm APERTURE: f/5… Read More »Wood Pile Buddy
For the third year in a row I joined the Junks on the back of their old-timey vehicle for the Ogden Fun Days Parade. This time, it was the recently restored and first firetruck to ever grace the streets of Boone County. Some photos. Once again, there was a wardrobe… Read More »OFD

I though I would be Johnny-on-the-Spot and guess this out as soon as I got back from Milwaukee, but I spent my weekend being in parades, helping give sermons, raising money through pie auctions, supping with friends and family, going on walks with Naima, going to baby showers, watching about… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 40 – BLUE
There weren’t many photos in folder 04-15-07, but there were a couple I liked. The next folder will be 04-18-07. A few tulip photos in there.
My church’s youth group had a going away pool party for Pastor Sarah and Alisa recently. While everybody was partying it up, I snuck off to photograph a couple water lilies in the hosts pond. This is one of them. Just starting to creep out of the water. I’ll consider… Read More »Pool Party
