Spring Hill

I'm posting this from my mom's hospital room. She's been here since Sunday. Thankfully it wasn't anything super serious, just waiting for a bunch of tests now. We're hopeful she'll be home for Thanksgiving.

I always wanted one of these.

This was in a friend of mine's basement when they bought their house. I said, "man, look at that thing!". He asked me if I wanted it and I said, "heck yeah". I hung it on my wood shed for now. I'm workin' on it makin' it's way in the house.

Twilight Riverfront

I don't think I've ever posted this shot before. The Charleston Camera Club had a showing at the Art Emporium in Charleston and this is the photo I chose to display. I made this photo in the spring of '06. I waited and waited for the perfect evening and I also had to wait for Chase to fix one of the lights on the bank. I have won a couple contests with this shot and was fortunate enough to sell it at the Art Emporium. It's pretty cool that this shot has made me several hundred bucks for just a little bit of work. The print I sold was 36" x 11". Click for a better view.

My new favorite song. My wife and I have liked Cyndi Lauper since we were kids. This is her on The Late Show with David Letterman Monday night. Crank it up!!!

Cranberry River

Here's another one from my Cranberry trip week before last. I almost didn't post it, then I got to lookin' at it and decided I liked it.

The view from Ducks Cliff

This was taken from inside Ducks Cliff, high above the Elk river and Elkhurst Road in Clay county WV.
Sometimes when the color ain't quite right you have to go black & white.

Teays Valley Christian School...

...Middle School girls (the Lady Lions) volleyball team won the WVCAT championship today in Parkersburg. The girls defeated Greater Beckley Christian School 2 games to 1 to claim the title.

This was my daughters first year playing for the school. She had great time with the team this season.
