Jennifer and Steve got married yesterday! A great day! Dave (my brother and her Dad) would have been very happy! Believe it or not, I left my camera home ---- Ouch! Anne bailed me out ---- Thanks Anne. I love this picture... Jen and Steve in a rare moment alone on a busy day. Moment's later he had her up on his shoulder threatening to throw her in the lake! These two have got a good thing going!
This young lady was very excited to get one of our dancers at a recent show, but became quite uphappy when Cheryl neatly wrapped it in tissue, put it in a bag, and presented it to her. As often happens, the adults were slow to figure out the problem. Taking off the tissue so she could see it through the clear bag didn't help much --- like no help at all? The final solution of taking it out of the bag and letting her carry it like a doll, was perfect.
Another collection of miscellaneous Obama Pins. I couldn't get the couple with the McCain/Palin baseball caps to stop for a picture? That one would have been cool because the woman also had on a floor length coat covered with colorful elephants! Oddly, both the woman above, and the one immediately below asked me if I was photographing their politics or their chest? Seemed like an oddly liberal thing to say?
The woman below with her daughter, gave us a Glow In The Dark Obama button!
The image below is the one that is actually right side up!

Maya and Cheryl - heading off into the future! More pics of Maya Wednesday here, and then click on the Maya Album.
Another scene from the swamp - another clickable to get a closer view one.
A small swampy area near the show provided a number of cool shots. A good one to click for a closer view.
Massachusetts is definitely Obama country. I could have filled the camera with images of pins, yard signs, bumper stickers, etc. I'm hoping my birthday present arrives on Nov. 4!

I've taken pictures of this sign before, but it was before my blogging days. The Northampton Paradise City shows are held at the fairgrounds. In a different time, temporary home to lots of animals, and the production of lots of valuable waste. As a farm boy, I recognize the value of manure.... a great source of organic nutrients for crops, but surely diminished in value if mixed with candy wrappers, styrofoam cups, plastic bottles, etc.
Scene over our neighborhood a few evenings ago.
What more can I say?
You might remember my previous entry about the wind turbines on Pine Hill over Cohocton, Atlanta, and Naples. I mentioned something about there not being any smoke plume involved in the generation of electricity from these energy sources. Click here for some pictures on a more auspicious day?
Thanks to Buck and Anne for these pics! If you see smoke coming out of your car, it is probably a good plan to step away! I guess I'll tag this one "Thank You" because everyone is just fine thank you!
We recently needed to do a postcard for a cooperative mailing with some craftspeople friends, and created the above postcard. It came out very well, thanks to Modern Postcard. After getting our package of cards, we got a promo for their Simple Cards. You've seen the image below, but I had it made into a small - about 4x6 greeting card! $29 for 25 cards with envelopes post paid! Seems like a great thing for all you folks who like to take pictures!
Maya loves her little backyard playhouse. She opened and closed that window about 20 times. The amazing thing is that I got inside to get this shot. I should have given Cheryl the camera to document that! It was a lot harder getting out than it was getting in!
