While I was working on the Sprint, I noticed that several tires were flat on the ATV. It hasn’t really been used all year because when we started on the garage, it sat outside and the battery went dead. So …
The Collingwood Inn recently got a new paint job so I thought it would be good to take some pictures of it during Christmas. Missed a great sunset on the 29th, but at least it wasn’t raining.
Even as much as Lori loves her Macintosh, I don’t think she understands this recent purchase of mine. As I mentioned earlier, I have a bit of a computer museum going on in my garage. Starting with my Commodore 64, …
I would have liked to spent today’s entry telling you about the nice Christmas we had. But in what has unfortunately become a day after Christmas tradition around here, our yard once again became a dumping ground for Williams Creek. …
This year we seemed to have endless trouble keeping our Christmas lights lit. It seemed on any one night either the damp conditions would cause the GFI circuit breaker to trip, or the timer would malfunction and wouldn’t turn the …
Last night was Ferndale’s Lighted Tractor Parade, one of my favorite Ferndale events. Lot of entries this year and it was nice to see the Leonardi’s back in the fray after a year’s absence. Bansen’s brought their train back to …

Maybe this is why they called it Ferndale? They say a rolling stone gathers no moss, but apparently a rolling 4×4 can gather a few ferns. Found this vehicle in the Ferndale parking lot.
When I got up this morning it looked like it was going to be a nice sunrise. I pondered for a few minutes whether I should run to work and grab the camera and then go out to Fernbridge to …
Looking on the calendar I saw we had a full moon coming up so with the clear weather that we’ve been enjoying, I thought I would get a photo of the moon rising behind the Gingerbread. Only problem was it …
First Sunday in December means it’s time to put the lights up on the town Christmas tree. This year we were blessed with pretty good weather for the task. No rain, and the temperature wasn’t too bad either for an …
Walking down the street to the post office this morning Engine 2 went by. Looks like Company 2 has a new recruit. I guess Santa’s getting tired of all that cold and wanted a job with action on more than …
After 5 years of faithful service, my first digital SLR, this Fuji S1 Pro, died a quiet death. All it could say was ERR on the display. Researching it on the web, it seemed a common way for it to …
