Today I took pictures of a Britney Spears Italian Charm Bracelet collection for an upcoming web site that I’m going to be designing. Now if you don’t know what an Italian Charm Bracelet is, you’re out of it. If you … Continue reading →
I was looking out the window of our office when this Jeep drove up with two of the shaggiest creatures I have ever seen. The most common animals to be seen in the back of trucks in Ferndale are of … Continue reading →
Today they poured a slab for the beginning of our driveway. The rest of the driveway will get poured when we get back to working on the garage. But it will at least be nice to have this portion paved.
Ricky picks up nicknames on a pretty frequent basis, the latest being Bouncy Ricky. He has a habit of bouncing between the top of the futon to Lori’s lap when we watch TV. His take offs and landings are usually … Continue reading →
If Meg weren’t such a fattie, she would probably enjoy climbing all the trees around our yard. But being that she does have a bit of a weight problem, this is as high as she goes.
Yesterday they poured the cement for the base, and this morning they took the forms off. The recessed panels in the concrete echo the panels on the bay windows rather nicely. They were going to work on the front path … Continue reading →
We first met Henry Del Biaggio when I took some pictures of a bull in a flood plain by his house. When we later invited Henry and his wife Carol over to play pinochle, Carol told us she would try … Continue reading →
The rain finally stopped, and so the work on our front fence finally began. Since it doesn’t look like the county is going to be fixing the flooding problem any time soon, we are building a retaining wall in the … Continue reading →
Saturday’s class returned us to the location where we went through the maze before Christmas. Since I didn’t bring my camera that day, I went back through portions of the maze to take pictures of it. This picture shows the … Continue reading →
Since Valentine’s Day is coming up, I wanted to get some pictures in the shop’s window. Sheila got the red treatment.
We were warned that this Saturday’s class was going to be tough and they weren’t kidding. Even though I passed on a few of the excercises due to my back, I still felt like I had been tossed around inside … Continue reading →
As we left for work this morning I noticed a large puddle of water on our porch floor. We had been experiencing a small intermittent leak from the exhaust pipe for the heater and I had planned to fix it … Continue reading →
Here’s another shot from Sunday’s motorcycle ride. I like how this photo, even though it is color, has a sense of being a black and white photo.
Much of Bear River Valley is free range. That means you’ll often encounter cattle in the road. But I’ve noticed that when the cows are pregnant, they get pretty stubborn about moving out of your way. It’s especially noticeable on … Continue reading →
How can you not enjoy living in the country when this is the view from your backyard when you get up in the morning? So what if the front of the yard resembles a lake. My original intent when I … Continue reading →
It stopped raining long enough today that I decided to chuck my planned schedule and instead go for a motorcycle ride. It was pretty cold so I put on my insulated jeans, a turtleneck, and a sweatshirt. Then I layered … Continue reading →
After viewing the backyard, I was prepared for the worst in the front yard, and found it. It’s been very cold in addition to the heavy rain, so we’ve been keeping our fingers crossed for snow. So far the only … Continue reading →
You start a new year all positive, hoping it’s going to be better than the previous year. (Which last year wasn’t that great, so it shouldn’t be hard to beat.) For me this positive attitude lasted until I got out … Continue reading →
