Caroline Titus of the Ferndale Enterprise captured my dunking quite well. On the front page of the Enterprise there is a Quote of the Week which is usually quite funny, especially when you know the person involved, which in Ferndale, …
I found out that we also came in last in the bucket brigade. The final “official” event is the jousting, which is really more like a tug of war in the air. Valley Lumber provides two forklifts, and a beer …
Here I am emptying the water out of my boots. Even after emptying them, they were quite squishy inside. So once again they are at home drying out. Hopefully the cats won’t be leaving me any presents this time, but …
The second event is the bucket brigade, where the company has to fill up a large tub, bucket by bucket. I wish I had video for this one, because when done right, it really looks pretty cool. When the tub …
Today was the annual Ferndale Volunteer Fire Dept’s Firemen Games, held on Main Street. Like all the recent Main Street events, this one was held in the rain. We had moments of warm sun, and moments of cold rain through …

nother day that I should have been out enjoying the spectacular weather on my motorcycle, but the fire department scheduled a work day for the barn at the fairgrounds. This little barn is where the antique fire engine is stored. …
Ok that was three pictures of Jessica in a row, so time for something completely different. Yesterday as I arrived home from work we had a very pretty sky, even though there weren’t any clouds in it. As the trees …
It has been fabulous weather all week long, a bit chilly in the morning but beautiful blue skies from dawn to dusk. So this afternoon, Jessica and I took our practice session out doors, to the old Van Duzen bridge.
With Valentine’s Day approaching, I thought it would be good to have some hi-key photos in my portfolio. Hi key meaning that the photo is mainly composed of highlights, versus low key which is what I tend to shoot more …
One of the projects that Lori has been working on lately in addition to her book is reproducing some of the vintage lingerie that we own for another photographer. He saw some of my work on the web and wanted …
The current production of the Ferndale Repertory Theatre is Blithe Spirits, and this is the publicity shot that I did for them. If it’s not obvious from the photo, Bithe Spirits is a ghost story. Lori and I went and …
