The first pic above is of a 24" x 36" piece of sign plastic. The markings on it were left in the process of peeling a piece of adhesive vinyl off of the board.
I took my truck in to Japanese Auto to get my yearly inspection. It had expired the day before. While i was waiting i took pictures of a junked trailer next to the shop. Then i went to play ultimate.

More rain.
|
After work i drove up to the firetower at the Okemo summit. That pic is looking vaguely northwest.
|
I was sick today and i forgot to take any pictures.
|
I took a short walk with Wendy York out by the big flood prevention dam in Ludlow. Those are Okemo's South Face trails in the background.
|
I was taking some pics at ultimate and i happened to look up and see this plane just coming out of the clouds. I snapped a pic fast.
|
Flower in my yard.
|
Only took 2 pics today and neither one was particularly in focus. This is Al guarded by Tom throwing to Wes who's guarded by Eugene. Sarah is blurry.
|
Hydrant in the base area at Okemo.
|
Green pool on a stream in the woods.
|
I got up early and drove in to Rutland to get my oil changed at Midas. While i was waiting i walked over to Home Depot and browsed, but didn't buy anything.
|
Drove down towards Weston and up Jenny Coolidge road to its end, then hiked up a ways.
|
I won Okemo's Peak Performer award today. I'd known that i'd won for about a week. I think there was only one other person in the running. So i had to endure balloons and a speech and pictures and all that crap.
|
Walked the dogs in the pasture by the tracks.
|
Bench in the Spring House.
|
Mmmm...
|
I got a new lens for my camera today. I was supposed to take pictures of the band at the Jackson Gore Music Series concert so i wanted to get a better lens before that. The lens arrived today and i went back to Okemo to shoot, but they moved the concert into the Ice House at the last minute, so i didn't shoot much. I did go out and get a pic of one of the new disc golf holes though.
The band playing is Adam Payne and 2Adam12. They had 3 guitarists, 2 of whom are named Adam.
|
Seera was coughing because she'd just gulped a bunch of water out of the stream.
|
Hiked up the AT and then off around other trails until i came out at the railroad tracks, which i followed back to the truck.
Mommy and Daddy arrived today for a short visit.
|
I went to work while my parents stayed at my house. When i got back in the afternoon, Mommy and i took the dogs for a walk around the cemetary. That evening we went out to dinner at the 99 Restaurant in Rutland. The waiter was SUPER-annoying and the food was pretty much 100% deep-fried.
|
I went to work, parents went to Boston, rain came in again.
|
KC and i spent an hour or so attaching all of the numbered sap buckets to the tops of the disc golf holes. Nice diversion from the signshop.
|
|
I was feeling kinda down when i took the dogs out for a walk and i was driving up this dirt road and saw a field on top of a hill and i decided to stop there and walk and it was so beautiful. There was a corn field on one side and all long the edge of this field were HUGE ripe raspberries which i was eating as i walked along, and then we got up to the top of the hill and you could see for miles and in the next field over were a bunch of horses. Man, made my day.
|
I drove up to the Okemo summit again to see if i could take enough pictures to make a 360-degree picture from the fire tower. It didn't quite work.
After that i went over to the new disc golf course and shot a round. Got a 1-under par for 9 holes. Then i shot some pics of me putting, which was tricky, holding the camera in my left hand and putting with my right.
|
Explored the old Green Mountain Turnpike next to Route 103. The pic is actually looking DOWN a stream as it tumbles through a little gully.
|
Josh, at ultimate.
|
Took the dogs out for a hike as i rode my bike towards Wallingford Pond.
|
There was a raccoon stuck in the dumpster at work.
I got a new Sigma 17-70 lens today for my camera and used it to take a picture of Teco, who was very wet from being at ultimate practice, where it rained the whole time.
|
When Seera drinks, she drools.
|
Clamp in my kitchen, bolt on the train trestle over Route 155.
