One should not text message while driving. We all know that. Anything that takes your mind and your attention off the road is a horrible habit and should be stopped immediately. That line of thinking also applies to walking and texting as well. Anything that takes your eyes off of what is directly in front [...]
I forgot about this picture. This was taken a couple of years ago, back when I first got my D40, and was taking shots of everything I could just to get some experience with it. This is right from from the flower garden in our front yard.
This was taken yesterday after a very hot, muggy day. My friend, Ryan, had called and asked if me if I wanted to go storm-spotting but I didn’t hear my phone so I missed out on some great photography. I was busy doing other stuff around the house when I looked out the window and [...]
This was on our last day as we were packing the van to come home. This is the rock face that was right behind our campsite. In fact, the picture was taken right from our picnic table looking up as the sun rose over the trees on top. When and if we make it back [...]
These were taken on our third day on our camping trip. Overall, I think we had a pretty good time even if I was having to accept the fact that I’d paid thirty-six dollars for a three-day fishing pass and I was going home without any fish.

The moment we arrived at our campsite in South Dakota I knew that I was going to want to wander off alone and take some photos. We spent the first part unloading our van and setting up our tent and then set about getting dinner going. After I had a chance to look around I [...]
I had the opportunity to go camping this weekend in South Dakota and it was an absolute blast. We were going so that Becky and her friend, Chris, could hook up and our two families could finally meet and hang out. We left Saturday morning, got to camp about dinner time, and came home on [...]
This weekend, Becky ran/walked in Grandma’s marathon in Duluth, Minnesota. To say that I am proud of her would be an understatement. I am beyond proud of her. This marathon that she finished is the culmination of a year’s worth of walking and running and officially ends almost five years (perhaps even longer) of unhappiness [...]
