Highway 108

Knowlesville Posted on July 31, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Sierra lupines

After leaving Bodie we took Highway 108 over to Tuolumne to spend some time with Lori’s sister Paula. It was nice seeing greenery after a week in the desert, and somewhere along the route we came across this amazing patch …

Bodie at long last

Knowlesville Posted on July 30, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
The Ghost of Bodie

Starting with the same Galen Rowell seminar mentioned earlier, I had made three previous trips to Bodie, all unsuccessful due to the weather. You can’t be a photographer and not see pictures of Bodie. And once you’ve seen pictures of …

Going Downhill

Knowlesville Posted on July 29, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Driving to Bodie

We spent the night in the campground at the Bristlecone Forest where they had signs posted that the chipmunks could be carrying the plague. So much for them being cute little furry creatures. Had to remind Lori of the signs …

Ancient Bristlecone Forest

Knowlesville Posted on July 28, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Bristlecone Sunset

As we made our way north on 395, we came to the Ancient Bristlecone Forest, where some of the trees are over 4000 years old, and some of the wood lying on the ground is over 7000 years old. When …

Goldfield

Knowlesville Posted on July 27, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Goldfield

Lisa Marie told us about a ghost town that we should check out, Goldfield. It’s not a pure ghost town since there are still people living there, but there were several interesting buildings around town. We got in right as …

Lisa Marie

Knowlesville Posted on July 26, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Lisa Marie

While we were in Vegas I thought it would be nice to work on a picture that I’ve had in my mind for a long time. This isn’t it though, this was plan B. It was just too hot to …

Sirens of TI

Knowlesville Posted on July 25, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Treasure Island Pirates

Las Vegas in July. What was the PPA thinking scheduling the conference in Las Vegas in July? 107 degrees during the day, cooling all the way down to 103 degrees at 10:00 pm. We didn’t have much free time so …

Calico

Knowlesville Posted on July 24, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Calico

The first of five ghost towns we visited on our vacation was Calico, which is near Barstow. Calico isn’t the most authentic ghost town out there since it was owned by Knotts Berry Farm for awhile, but it was still …

On Vacation

Knowlesville Posted on July 23, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Red Rock Canyon

We started our vacation on the 22nd by going down to the Bay Area. Which of course meant that the truck had to act up. Fortunately this time it was only the brake lights, and not the brakes themselves, and …

Tracy & Mackenzie

Knowlesville Posted on July 20, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Mother Daughter Maternity Photo

This photo is from the second session I did with Tracy. Today we went out to Centerville Beach with her daughter, Mackenzie. As the afternoon approached, I thought we might have to cancel, due to the weather. But I figured …

Magic Mirror

Knowlesville Posted on July 11, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Nixie

I worked with Nixie in the studio for some shots for her portfolio. Had to really concentrate on my levitation skills to keep the mirror there.

Tropical Kate

Knowlesville Posted on July 10, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Kate

Since I don’t have the budget to go to Hawaii this year, I have to pretend. Here’s Kate doing her best Island Girl impersonation.

Going for a dip

Knowlesville Posted on July 9, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Kate

I took part of today off to go take pictures with Kate. We went up to Route 1 and a cascade that is just off of 299 near Willow Creek. At the cascade we took some pictures of Kate in …

Building the Fence

Knowlesville Posted on July 8, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Rose Arbor

What I am working on is building the fence and arbor in the front yard. I know it doesn’t look like much now, and at the rate I’m making progress on it, it might be awhile before it really looks …

Bradbury Ceiling

Knowlesville Posted on July 7, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Parlor Ceiling

With all the work going on outside, I finally admitted that I wasn’t making progress on the inside, so we hired a friend to put up our Bradbury wallpaper. I didn’t order quite enough of one pattern, so he couldn’t …

Are these legal?

Knowlesville Posted on July 6, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Fireworks

Once again we enjoyed the local fireworks show, and by local, I mean the neighbors down the street. Several new attendees thought it was a BYOFW show, but anything that you can buy on the street would pale in comparison …

Hammerin’ Away

Knowlesville Posted on July 5, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Hammering Contest

After the parade, the firemen had a picnic at the chief’s house. They had some tradition picnic games like egg toss and three-legged race, but Lori got herself entered into the hammering contest. First person to hammer in three nails …

Riding Harleys

Knowlesville Posted on July 4, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Harley riding

Up until today, I had never ridden a Harley, and today I got to ride two of them. First I rode Tony Leonardo’s Sportster on a quick loop around Ferndale. To say it handles differently than my Sprint or KLR …

Getting Lost on Purpose

Knowlesville Posted on July 3, 2004 by MattMay 8, 2019
Kate's Cascade

I took some time off today to ride up to Route 1 to see if the wildflowers were still in bloom. There were still some around, and new varieties were in bloom, but it wasn’t quite the show that it …
