I spent a lot of time out at Dickcissel Park with Naima this year. I think it has become her favorite place to go, when she leaves the house. The only thing I can say is that she has yet to accept that a trip there is a substitute for… Read More »A Man’s Best Friend is his Dog…
This is the final post of the 2017 backlog. I usually get tapped with taking the pictures for the day job’s holiday card.

I decided to make a few abstract images to commemorate the Blue Wave in the 2018 Midterm Elections. I was quite the historical night and a very successful night for the Democrats. Consider: Despite facing tremendous gerrymandering in many states, Democrats gained between 37-39 House seats. The most since the… Read More »#BlueWave2018
Naima likes to walk in water. Naima doesn’t swim, unless forced. She doesn’t enjoy it. But she loves tromping around in water. I decided to try to grab a picture of her tromping around in water, from underwater. It didn’t work out that well because the place we go so… Read More »Naima Underwater Test

Last weekend I went down to Topeka with Becca and Bethany to see Nate and Laura’s triplets. Bethany left her dog Tempe with Naima for the weekend. Part of my dog-sitting crew, Jay and Willy, got quite the kick out of Naima and Tempe’s antics. This reminded me that I… Read More »Naima & Tempe

Once again, as soon as I touched my camera, Iowa State had a punt blocked for a touchdown. So most of these pictures are from our annual Taco Tailgate. Iowa State is 4-0* during Taco Tailgate. It was a huge win for the Cyclones! If they win out, they have… Read More »Iowa State 40 Texas Tech 31
You may recall that I am not superstitious, but I am a littlestitious when it comes to sports. Every time I touch my camera at an Iowa State football game, things go bad for Iowa State. Therefore, I don’t have many pictures from Iowa State’s monumental victory over #6 West… Read More »Iowa State 30 #6 West Virginia 14
Back at the end of June, I went out into some sloppy rain and grabbed some macro flower photos. Some of hollyhocks. Some of lilies. Now that we are mostly trading in 2018 images, get ready for a flower deluge. Or not. Who knows what way the wind will blow.
A couple weeks back I went to Kansas City to see the Foo Fighters with Nate. On the way back to Iowa I meandered up 169 mostly and took a few more pictures for THE TOWN SIGN PROJECT.

Near the end of August, the Boone City Pool had their annual Dog Pool Party. I can’t remember if it is a fundraiser for the Boone Area Humane Society or the Canine Corral, but it is a fundraiser for somebody. I like to take Naima to this event even though… Read More »Dog Party!!

On Labor Day a (what I believe to be) hummingbird moth took up residence on my back patio. I took a few pictures of the cute, little guy. Thought I would share some: If this is not a hummingbird moth, let me know in the comments section of this here… Read More »Mothra!
