Ahh, Sunday our day off. Sun’s out, nothing planned for today except go to the fair in Eureka to see the demolition derby and then maybe come home and do some chores. We got to the demo derby, and watched … Continue reading →
A few weeks ago when we had guests staying at our house, someone (I’m guessing Derek from past experiences) left their toothpaste behind. Maybe we’re behind the times, but I had never seen one of these toothpaste in a pump … Continue reading →
I don’t know if Chelsea knows how to ride a horse, but she wanted some pictures with her cowboy hat. Good excuse to try out the leather earrings I saw in a store a while back. I love dangly earrings, … Continue reading →
I guess to make up for the miserable winter, and the spring that never showed up, the weather gods are being kind to Ferndale this summer. The usual fog is no where to be seen, and we’ve been experiencing warm … Continue reading →
Before dinner Lori and I walked down by the river where we were camping and came across this little frog, who was taking the art of camouflage rather seriously.
Continue reading →For our big summer vacation this year, we went on a two day whitewater rafting trip on the Trinity River. Today we drove up to the campground near Helena and met the rest of the group and the guides. The … Continue reading →
This is another shot taken last Sunday, same area as yesterday’s only a wider view. I’ve always heard about the bluebells of Texas and how spectacular they were, and this year I found out that what Texans call bluebells, we … Continue reading →
Another of my favorite native flowers is the lupine. We have several varieties around here and this year they seem to be doing very well, no doubt because of all the rain we received earlier. This particular patch was found … Continue reading →
When we lived in San Jose, I tried to grow foxglove in our garden, with only a little success. It seemed like they never reseeded, so every year I had to buy new plants, which not only gets expensive, it … Continue reading →
While I was taking the previous shot, I noticed a huge bumblebee all covered with pollen, so I followed him around for awhile trying to get his picture. Bees are not very cooperative when it comes to having their picture … Continue reading →
Sometimes I think life would be much easier without indoor plumbing. The last few weekends I’ve been having to repair something or other. First it was the toilet that was leaking. Then it was the valve that stuck in our … Continue reading →
Did something today I don’t do very often anymore, shot some actual film. The shot shown here is actually a digital shot of Dottie’s Kids that was used to test the lighting before I switched to film. Dottie is submitting … Continue reading →
The gophers have taken a turn for the worse. They are now doubling back, in the direction of the house. Mom and Dad are in town today. Mom brought her new camera, so I’m leaving it to her to document … Continue reading →
The gopher population in our yard seems to be out of hand. I think they are trying to create a reproduction of the Hawaiin Islands on our front lawn. Every morning we awake to find one more volcano has been … Continue reading →
Last weekend the Splinter Group had a garage sale and while searching for items to sell, I came across a box that had my very first computer in it which I’ve been saving for the day when it becomes an … Continue reading →
The shot that I had in mind was similar to this one, but as she was stretching to get in position, I thought this was pretty cool too.
Continue reading →It’s actually the 12th as I post this so I’m really behind. Been busy, had the folks in town, blah, blah, blah. More excuses than you want to hear. I figured I better get something posted before June is completely … Continue reading →
