Ok, so only one of the photos is from Market Square Day. It was rainy and I didn't take my camera out very often. I snagged one good shot of the North Church framed by multicolored balloons. I wasn't quite in the right place to get the best shot and the sky was pretty gray, …
Photographic Equipment Page
I'd like to celebrate the opening of the Photography section of the site by posting my Photographic Equipment page. If you were ever interested in the various cameras that I've owned over the years and the stories behind them, check it out. It can also be accessed from the Photography menu at the top of …
New Pics
I just added some more pics to the slideshow on the home page. They are from my recent trip to York Beach, the Nubble Lighthouse, and one of the bushes in our front yard. Enjoy!

Mowed The Lawn
Woo hoo, I mowed the lawn! Fantastic, right? Well it kind of is, for me at least. This is the first time that I've ever mowed our entire lawn. I mowed the front yard and back yard (which is normal) as well as the side yard and our lower back yard. Those are areas that …
