Momentary Spring

Knowlesville Posted on March 31, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Ferndale

We’ve been enjoying a return to spring weather the last two days, so I got out to photograph this morning. I went up to the cemetery to take a color panorama. Found that the rhododendrons aren’t blooming yet, so I’ll … Continue reading →

It Fits!

Knowlesville Posted on March 28, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Engine 2

The new Engine 2 is in its new home. When parked, the ladder clears the overhead beam by about 2 inches, but as the truck rolls out or in, the clearance goes down to about 1 inch. So unless we … Continue reading →

An Inside Job

Knowlesville Posted on March 27, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Parlor

Ferndale has been battered by one storm after another for the past week, and Sunday was no different. It was too wet to work outside, and everything was closed due to Easter, which I remembered after trying to make a … Continue reading →

Beach Psycho

Knowlesville Posted on March 25, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Beach wacko

This afternoon was spent photographing a senior portrait. The first part was photographed with the senior sitting at a piano at a friend’s Victorian in Eureka. That part went very smoothly. The student also wanted some casual beach shots, so … Continue reading →

New Engine 2

Knowlesville Posted on March 20, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Engine 2

Ferndale has a brand new fire truck to replace the aging Engine 2. It won’t be put into service until later this week when the radios are installed. I will believe that it will fit in the hall when I … Continue reading →

Garden Paths

Knowlesville Posted on March 14, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Herb Garden

We used the pre-spring weather to work on Lori’s herb garden. We’re putting in four radiating paths of decomposed granite. Two down, two more to go.

Mabel’s Dress

Knowlesville Posted on March 13, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Mabel

During our last photoshoot together, Mabel brought a dress to show me, knowing I have a penchant for all things sheer. I asked her to bring it along on this shoot, and it ended up being the perfect dress for … Continue reading →

The Green Hills Around Ferndale

Knowlesville Posted on March 12, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Mabel

It’s finally getting back to the season that I love most, and a week early we’ve been having some fine spring weather. After helping put out a fire in a mobile home this afternoon, I went over to the Lost … Continue reading →

Class of ’49

Knowlesville Posted on March 11, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Dad

Dad’s mug shows up several times in his yearbook, but this is the spiffiest. Check out that bowtie. On the prophecy page the prognostication for dad was that he “will still be trying to stretch the school finances.” I guess … Continue reading →

Small World

Knowlesville Posted on March 10, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Dad

This photo is from the Campbell High School Class of ’49 year book. That is dad’s signature on his photo. So why did dad sign his photo? Because I didn’t get this photo from mom, but rather from one of … Continue reading →

Arching Tree

Knowlesville Posted on March 9, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Tree

I saw this tree on the way to Kneeland and really liked how the branch arches so gracefully. The woodpeckers are doing a real number on this tree and from the looks of it, it might not make it through … Continue reading →

Cascade

Knowlesville Posted on March 8, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Cascade

This photo is also from my Sunday ride. I’m sure this location will be used for a future model shoot.

Redwood House

Knowlesville Posted on March 7, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Redwood House

The last couple of weekends I’ve been exploring some dirt roads on the KLR. This structure gives the name to one of those roads, Redwood House Road. It’s actually an old one-room schoolhouse. The side that faces the road has … Continue reading →

Relaxed Ricky

Knowlesville Posted on March 6, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Ricky

With Mama no longer around, Ricky used the afternoon to get some much needed rest. Lori and I spent the morning in the yard and it was nice having the sun out for a change. The ground is still way … Continue reading →

Mama Mia

Knowlesville Posted on March 5, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Mama Mia

A few months ago we were visiting John Stewart’s house and Lori fell in love with this cat. This was shortly after we lost Galen, so the attraction was obvious. Lori jokingly mentioned that if they ever wanted to get … Continue reading →

Bud & Harry

Knowlesville Posted on March 4, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Bud & Harry

It’s been awhile since we caught up with Bud and Harry, and in the meantime, they’ve played football, they’ve gone fishing, they’ve wrestled an alligator, and more. Right now they are working out in preparation for Sunday’s Foggy Bottom Milk … Continue reading →

Bad Marshmallows

Knowlesville Posted on March 3, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Bad Marshmallows

It’s such a shame when marshmallows go bad, and we’re not talking about the shelf life either. Instead of serving a productive life as filling for Smore’s or Moo Bars, these marshmallows have found themselves imprisoned in a field along … Continue reading →

Grizzly Bluff Rest Stop

Knowlesville Posted on March 2, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Grizzly Bluff Rest Stop

This showed up a few weeks ago, and unfortunately by the time I got out to take a picture of it, the wind had destroyed some of it. It’s hard to tell from this angle, but that is a senior … Continue reading →

Cow Town

Knowlesville Posted on March 1, 2005 by MattMay 17, 2019
Fiberglass cow

Ferndale proudly proclaims it is a cow town. It is also a town with a sense of humor that bubbles up all over. For the next several days, I’ll give you a tour of some of the oddities you can … Continue reading →
