I don't know what happened to my post for the 30th, but it seems to have disappeared. Here's the picture that was supposed to be posted.

Happy Halloween everybody!

Today we went to Dry Falls in North Carolina. The falls were anything but dry! It was very beautiful and we took lots of pictures.

Last night, after the kitties went to bed, Ami made up a mattress on the floor. This morning was like Christmas because if there's one thing kitties like it's a freshly made bed. Black Kitty took advantage right away.

She thinks she's camouflaged. She's squinting so I won't see her eyes.

Blogging may be light to non-existent for the next few days. I'll explain more later ;)

Here are the pictures I took with the GSN. I scanned them on my scanner that I can't get all of the dust off of.

One's from the Georgia National Fair.

Through a chain link fence.

I got these developed at Walgreens and for some reason the machine figured out that this shot could be a panorama so it printed it that way.

I got this shot earlier in the day of Ami and Margie.

This shot looks like there's a light leak but it's actually the first shot of the roll that you aren't supposed to get. I'm surprised it came out at all.

There are duck ponds that are part of Lake Tobesofkee that we decided will be our quiet place to sneak off to to get away close to home.

Please forgive the bad quality of these scans and the dirty scanner!

It's raining so Beatrice is freaking out. We don't know what caused her to be afraid of rain but she's terrified of it.

Today we went out to the stores. We went to Lowe's where they had a new greeter.

Kroger had a disturbing book.

And Sam's had some cute toys.

I got a roll of film developed from my GSN and I've fixed the light leak! Finally! I'll scan the pictures tomorrow and post them.

I'm a watch guy. I'm somewhat addicted to them, but I'm not as bad as I used to be. I'm down to two watches right now.

The first is a Seiko Kinetic that Ami got for me for our 11th anniversary. It's great as long as I wear it pretty often. If I don't it doesn't get wound and I have to spend a bunch of time rewinding it by shaking it back and forth.

The second is my Bulova. My mom got it for me for Christmas last year. I love the look of it but I want to change it from a black leather band to a silver bracelet.

From 10-2010


I try not to look at watches when I got places. If I do I get to thinking about getting another one and really I can only wear one at a time!

With the month we've had we figured we needed some luck so we sat down and opened a bunch of fortune cookies. They didn't really help.

This week has been all about the loss of my Aunt Kris. This world is bit dimmer because her smile is no longer in it. I have been taking pictures though. It helps me get through it because I think of my photography as art and an expression of how I'm feeling.

Here are a few selections from my week of photos.

A closed store on highway 74 between our house and Aunt Kris and Uncle Phil's.

Ami took the next few and I edited them. I was shooting film and it hasn't been developed yet.

These were at the end of Aunt Kris and Uncle Phil's driveway. I did the picture a couple of different ways on my iPhone.

The sky on Monday night. It was so beautiful. I had no idea what was happening or was going to happen.

We had to go to Bass Pro Shops because they have nice clothes.

We discovered the duck ponds at Lake Tobesofkee. They are really far from where I thought the lake ended.

And I took pictures of Phizz and Sierra. They are Aunt Kris and Uncle Phil's babies. Phizz is the Palomino.
