My pal Shaw (Kris) got bombed by her cute daughter Emma but I had to upload this anyway. Their seemingly synchronized style made me smile.

It's Thursday!!

I was going to post another freaking athletic shot of Jamie for my Love To Leap Thursday photo and then I thought, "nope", I'm a star athlete too, and I have cute legs! Well 1/2 of me does and he's the half that collapsed on the ground because he just finished doing his exercise routine and didn't have the energy to jump. So the evil lazy half pulled it off instead and you're stuck looking at me and my legs today!

Happy Love To Leap Thursday!!!

Mr fuzzy head

I sprayed these nasty weeds today but not before following specific directions to take a photo!

It's hard to leave this and go back to the city.

I love my flagpole and while I was out working on the sprinkler system today the clouds parted and the view caught my attention.

Nothing but work

We have a pressurized system for watering lawns and gardens now but it's still ditch water and once in a while a creature will flow down the lines. I have big filters on the line before the valves but it's still dirty water. These monster sprinklers tolerate mud and muck pretty well but every spring I have to replace a couple of them. I'm not a pretty sight right now.

Sort of fence Friday

Fires make me nervous after the wild fire season we had last summer but this was a farmer burning his fenceline so it's all good.

Objects in photo are MUCH closer than they appear

I couldn't bring myself to crop this. It just looks so crazy and when you consider how close I was to Breanne it makes it even more wild. This new fisheye has me smiling from ear to ear and my best estimate puts me about 3 feet away from her when she jumped.

I'll try to be more responsible with lens correction in the future along with appropriate cropping but in the mean time I'm enjoying the heck out of this!

Hello spring!

I'm having a hard time focusing on work now that all the deadlines have passed. Thankfully Breanne is having a hard time too :)

I was thinking it would be nice to put my feet up and watch "Criminal Minds" on TV but then my friend Shaw called and said she was going out to dinner and we should come. And it was pretty cool to have the race car parked with such good company in front of the restaurant.

Hello from Germany :)

Some of you might have heard about the so called mountain man who was captured in the central Utah mountains in early April. He's been breaking into cabins for a number of years and has eluded capture from authorities. When the report came in that he had been captured I perked up when I heard the location. Ferron Reservoir is one of my favorite locations to go camping and I was there last August for a few days. I thought it might interesting to see where my camper was in relation to the cabins this dude was hiding in.
