I look through those hilarious awkward family photo sites and completely crack up. You know, those ones with the suspect character, weird posing or just out-of-place concept. But when it comes to the ones with the whole family posing with guns… it reminds me of a past-time of ours. No, we don’t stand next to...
Last weekend Kurtis and I rode Day 1 of “The Hilly,” a famed southern Indiana bicycle ride now in its 44th year. We were rookies, and we loved it so much we’re certain we’ll do it again. We camped on the grounds of Edgewood schools. Many riders packed the schools’ gymnasiums, picture rows of sleeping...
Wow, we almost forgot to post this! I’m not sure how as it’s such a big star on our summer calendar. To have 7 of our nieces and nephews spend a few days of fun-filled wonder is as good as it gets (minus the extreme fatigue). If you’ve missed the background to the best camp...
So we’ve discovered a new love: paddleboarding! Technically speaking, this is Stand-Up Paddleboarding (SUP). It’s been gaining popularity in coastal areas the past few years and is now making its way to us Midwesterners! We’re glad it’s here finally. After a bit of research I found a few places in Indy that rent the equipment...
So if you’ve been following us since last year, you might have caught a post on my 2010 Brickyard 400 experience. It was really something. This year, I wore a fancy-pants badge once again around my neck. The biggest change? We are rooting for the 24 car now! Back in 1994 on the Thursday or...
Our recent stay in Outer Banks was a bit of getting back to the old. Not because we’ve been there before (it was actually our first visit ever) but in the way that I took photos. While Jen worked the week out on the digital camera I focused on our medium-format film camera. It was...
“Can I touch them (the animals)?” and ”Can we go in there (the cages)?” were two questions I continually heard as Molly and I walked through the Zoo. I think living so close to her Grandfather’s farm has really given Molly a different perspective on human+animal interaction. Of course my answer of “no” was always...
In an effort to improve our photo skills at twilight and with flash, we took our gear to a nearby open space and had some fun. And we decided it would be great fun to practice karate moves at the same time. These two images make us chuckle and are worth sharing. I nearly pulled...
