April 15th
A perfect afternoon..
Sticky fingers
I know it is a real winter night when my wet hand sticks to the long brass handle on the sliding door when I am coming back into the house after being out in the tub. Froze right on to it tonight Two days ago, it was 60 and today only made 13 with [...]
Winter brings it’s many gifts
Sure looking like a white Christmas this year... Third snowfall of the season was on the 17th where we picked up a solid 10" here on the coast. Soft and fluffy three days later and we have been out in the back yard playing in the snow. [...]

Watching me
I headed off to Mittenstock Thursday night. Solo run for some scheduled work on the place.. My pal was watching me leave from the second floor window where he works most days.
Cheers to you
Another glorious sunset at Mittenstock - Time spent working with my new Z7 and 24-70 2.8. Not sure how many photo's I have taken from this deck - tens of thousands for sure. But what's not to love about this? We got a nice sunset - and the [...]
