Neck Watch

I've started a new campaign called: When will we see a neck? I've been watching for months and not seen it. In fact, I'm not sure he has a neck. This picture seems to hint that a neck might be present, but, clearly, is not proof. The watch continues.

I am going to change a few things

Did you catch this picture during a commercial for JC Penney during the Oscars? It hit me hard.

I know I'm getting over the flu and am on an up swing of 'positive', but this one grabbed me.

Here is what I saw and what I want to be.

I saw a women (and man) enjoying their wedding day. They were not upset about the rain and the lack of sun. They knew what mattered was the event and not the weather. They have it figured out. It's simple, but I forget sometimes.

I'm a big fan of this guy, David Ziser. I took a photography class from him. If you're interested in shooting better pictures, this is a great blog to bookmark.

Westminster revisited

A repost of Mary trying out for judge. She almost made it, but when she found out you had to wear ugly shoes, she withdrew from the competition.

Bo, Sam and Dad

You know, these guys really do look like their father. It's amazing.

I need to post some pictures of kids

All of these pictures of Bo, Sam and Luke are causing me to go back and find a few of the 'older' kids. I scanned this in. Will have to scan some more. From the wording, it looks like one of the Monk boys wrote this, but I don't know who.

I had to remove the previous picture, else 32 years would not be possible.
