Today I’d Like to photograph, lambs, a roof and something for Nancy.

First lambs of the year for me, though they look far from new born. It’s been a while since I’ve photographed a thatched roof, so I thought I’d take one of this recently re-thatched cottage, in East Hanney. Then just round the corner in the same village I came across this (this one’s for Nancy). … Continue reading "Today I’d Like to photograph, lambs, a roof and something for Nancy."

The Reckless Mr. Bing Bong and I Climbed a Really Huge Mountain

You probably didn’t know that sometimes my bike and I like to ride to the base of one of Greg-world’s major mountains, then go off-road to climb up to the summit. It’s true, we do. Here is a photo-documentary of our most recent mountain climbing expedition. ************ I must admit, all that ice-biking and igloo-building … Continue reading "The Reckless Mr. Bing Bong and I Climbed a Really Huge Mountain"

Unum

A lovely day, hitting at least 70° F, so I scooted downtown to see the new “Unum” piece at Courthouse Square. Very nice, although a crew was working on it and blocking my shots. Unfortunately, no sign of our ice sculpture contest. A little more at Bill Bikes Post Views: 18

Hastings, Minnesota: Serving You Heaps of Snow Since 1867

The morning started out with a hazy sun, no wind and pretty warm air (28-degrees F). The roads have even been clearing themselves of ice. I daresay, the riding was quite pleasant. That’s a darn good thing too, because this weekend I’ll be waking up to sub-zero temperatures again. Oh well, whatever. I had ridden … Continue reading "Hastings, Minnesota: Serving You Heaps of Snow Since 1867"

This story is more recent in its development, but what it lacks in history, it makes up for in gaudy flamboyance. This particular … Continue reading "Yo Ho Ho, and a Bottle of Rum / A Pirate’s Life for ME . . ."
