I’ve posted some of our vacation photos from the trip we just took to Illinois.

Yeah, I know. Vacationing in Illinois in winter isn’t the best idea ever. Still, we had some fun.

This is a good hint.

Seriously, what kind of set does a Yorkie have to have to stare down a bald eagle!?!

That wasn’t in the job description

I do believe I’d find a different line of work when it involves dodging javelins.

That poor, poor woman. At least she’s well afterwards.

My Sarisara Store

Posted by J.A.S.O.N. on 03 Jul 2006 | Tagged as: Photography

MY SARISARI STORE is an awesome photoblog about life in the Philippines. Sure, it’s a photoblog, but it’s hard not to look at these photos and feel something. Everything from feeling awful that people live in some of these conditions to seeing the joy some of the children show in their lives. Sometimes all in the same photo!

If you’re into photography, then I’d bookmark this that site. The photos in it are some great stuff and you can really pick up some good techniques if you pay attention.

Weekend in review

“Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you” -Nathaniel Hawthorne

On Saturday, Crystal and I decided to take Shelby to the Butterfly House at the Cox Arboretum. Bad day. Seriously. It was about 96 degrees outside with little wind and almost no shade.

Still, Shelby had fun looking at the butterflies and the caterpillars, I got some good photos and even Crystal got into it.

Still, thought, it was way too hot to stay out there for any prolonged period of time, so, after about an hour and a half or so, we trucked on over to Cold Stone for some ice cream relief then over to Dorothy Lane Market for some dinner ideas. Rosemary-garlic lambchops with sweet pepper wild rice. It sounds good, but didn’t really come out right. The lamb was fattier than it looked and the rice just didn’t come out well at all. I’ll try it with leaner steaks next time and maybe do some rosemary-garlic mashed potatoes to go with it.

Sunday was a lounge day. We cleaned up the house a bit, did laundry, dishes, etc and I spent the rest of the evening on World of Warcraft while Crystal and Shelby watched movies (which I half payed attention to while playing).

All-in-all, a pretty good weekend.
