Here are some pictures of some of the early days of Bokeh. Including when she met Johnathan for the first time. And when I bought her a pool, that of course, she doesn’t like. Still plenty more pictures of the early day of Bokeh left to share.
For starters to address the internet rumors about me throwing away a camera at the dumpster fire known as Cultural Appropriation Stadium. Sorry. I meant Arrowhead Stadium. Which comes with not at all a problematic and racist subculture. At this point, it is just better for you to imagine what… Read More »WPC – WEEK 478 – MACRO

One of my goals this year was to hit the Valley Junction Farmer’s Market. I had heard that it was almost as good as the Downtown Des Moines Farmer’s Market. Not going to mince words. The people that say that are seriously deranged. I’m not saying I wouldn’t go back.… Read More »Marketin’: Valley Junction Farmer’s Market
Trying to clean a little bit of the backlog here. These are some pictures I took in Marshall County on a trip I took there for no particular good reason. And that is the truth of that. Marshalltown has a cool business district. I always look forward to photographing it!
After I left Cataract Falls I tooled up to the town of Cataract. I was lured there by promises of ice cream and a “General Store”. Both were closed and interesting to look at, so it wasn’t a nothing. Here are some pictures of Cataract and the trip back to… Read More »Eclipse Road Trip Day 2 – Cataract

I’ve already shared a food adventure at Copperhead Saloon before, but that was when I ate their Club Grill (On Texas Toast). I recently went back and tried their tenderloin. It felt like a big miss that this restaurant is so close and I haven’t had their tenderloin. So Teresa… Read More »Tenderloining: Stratford Field Work
I have yet to take my camera into an Iowa State game this year. This might be why they are currently 7-0. However, last Saturday I did take some pictures of the Steps Concert before the Central Florida game. Thought I would share a few: Hopefully I get to watch… Read More »Steps Concert
