The snow drifted so deep we had to dig a trail for the chickens. Sadly, all but two chickens were killed by raccoons over the summer.

Here’s a tip for the aspiring gopher photographer: Get between the gopher and the late day sun and it won’t see you (as long as you don’t move) when its head is out of the hole.

June was a great month. Three of the photos I entered in the Glenwood Chamber of Commerce photo contest were chosen for the stone coaster set. The winners were the public library, post office, & Davies Amphitheater photos.

2007 Rewind – December/Ice & Fog

January 30th, 2008 by Ethan

Alright. It’s cold, windy, & gloomy outside and I don’t have anything new that’s worth uploading.
Let’s have another look at 2007 and a bunch of photos I never got around to posting…

Aside from Christmas, all I can remember about December 2007 is alot of ice & fog. How many ice storms were there ? Five or six ? I lost count.

Fogged In

January 3rd, 2008 by Ethan

_o8i0731-2b.jpg
I’ve been wanting to get a shot of this old pump, but the background just did’nt work for me. Zero visibility solved the problem.

Tip of the Day: When it’s foggy, turn your automobile’s headlights on.

Tip of the Day for Old Farts in Pickups: When it’s foggy, stop at stop signs.

Storm Rototation

There was alot of rotation in this storm cloud yesterday evening. It almost formed a funnel cloud several times before it broke up. It was an eerie sight.
