The Kiwanis Club Christmas tree checkout trailer
Our third visit (previously) So we're there on the first day trees are for sale and they only have one variety in-stockâ€"Fraser firsâ€"same kind we had last year, but I can't remember for sure. I google the variety on the spot to check and see if they're any good. Search results prove...

There are moments
I don't believe this is lens distortion throwing curves, it's just that our blinds are wonky There are mere moments while gray light spreads across the morning sky, yet hasn't enough power to shut off the sensor in the electric holiday candle. We placed these decorations in the windows this...

The "new" guy
cuttin it up This is Joel. You may have noticed him modeling some of the new shirts over at the shop. Well maybe not, since I'm always cropping off everyone's heads. Anyway, Joel has been with us for like a year now, so he's technically not the new guy, but he is the newest. He comes in a few...

cold cuts
a tiny slice of the much larger spread Birthday party / early holiday get-together with Dan's family today, somewhere up north where harvested fields give way to elaborate churches or grain silos on every horizon. No one left with a black eye and I don't think any wills were re-written, so I'm...

A trip to the mall

At last my arm is complete again
Leaving the studio at sunset [ + zoom ] It might be hard to tell since I've been totally awful about posting consistently of late, but I've returned to the land of interchangeable lenses and higher resolution photos. I have Wendy's mom to thank as she's letting me borrow her camera until I can...

A recital, a Chamber Orchestra concert
I doubt I will ever be able to spell embouchure without a dictionary. This is the busy season when it comes to music. With multiple performances each week and the tizzy of the quarter ending at school, I'm lucky to see Dan for large chunks of time. He had his faculty recital last monthâ€"a...

SPECIAL
an excuse to use the font Avant Garde Been wanting to make this shirt for a long, long time. Tom figured it out with some creative screening and a hit of white underneath to help intensify the colors. (Had we gone with a white shirt, this would have been a lot easier). Printed up a batch...
