Kathy Houle joined us for a day of fun & sun at catalina. i'm not sure why she finds it necessary to pose like a pretzel when using her lensbaby 2.0!?! maybe i'm doing something wrong! this was shot with my lensbaby 2.0, but i wasn't all twisted up!

there's no smoking at Catalina Beach Club. shot with a lensbaby 2.0.

"I'm too sexy for my shirt!," says Tally. Mary ordered this Ramones t-shirt on eBay. It was a little too small, but a perfect fit for the pup.

muddy paws!!!

It was a muddy day at the dog park! Tally was terrorized by 4 Greyhounds. There was a lot of splashing in the mud!

The sad pup with muddy paws takes a shower.

nice shrooms!!!

Imagine my surprise when I walked out of the house and saw these mushrooms growing in the flower bed. They were HUGE!

Wet Dog!

Bronx Bombers!

Today we shot Whitey Ford at his home. He wore his WOOL #19 Rookie Jersey from 1950. Most people think he wore #16 his whole career.

We also shot Goose Gossage

Superbowl Sunday

Andrew REALLY liked this t-shirt Mary & I bought for him. It says,"My mommy says I'm special." He went into all of the media trailers to show off his new wardrobe. He was so proud...and probably so was his mommy!

Superbowl Saturday

Today Canon had the Superbowl Photographers Party at Clark's Fish Camp is Jacksonville. The restaurant is like a taxidermy museum. They also happen to fry anything you can imagine, including pickles! While I was taking a picture of Kathy H, with the monkey head, the cashier told me it was really a deer's ass!
Here's our swanky trailer. The espresso machine is not pictured, but we had quite the set-up.

fun in the sun

Andrea, Rick, Janet, & Brandon joined us for a day at Catalina.

mini road trip

On our way to NY for the US Open, we took some detours to see some sites. This shell shaped gas station is in Winston-Salem, NC. It's the only one remaining of eight that were originally built in the late 1930s.

the Blues

We're in Chicago for the NATJA conference. We spent the evening listening to a great Blues band at Blue Chicago. The Ice Bar was next door & had a nice sign.

Chain of Rocks Bridge

We walked from Illinois to Missouri by crossing the Chain of Rocks Bridge

Gemini Giant

On our Rt 66 press trip prior to the NATJA conference in Chicago, we stopped to admire the Gemini Giant at the Launching Pad restaurant in Wilmington, IL.
