Going Through Withdrawals
My favorite hangout on the corner--the Hyperion coffee shop. I've have begun hosting a morning radio show from 8 to 9 a.m. Monday through Friday on local issues so my time here is limited to weekend visits. I do miss the weekday crowd. Also I haven't had an opportunity to play with Photoshop much so I cranked the bars to the max on this one........I feel a bit better.

Just an Urn And A Verse

When old age shall this generation waste,
Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe
Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say'st,
'Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is all
Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.'


Tha...Tha....Tha...That's All Folks!

Hark What Light From Yon Window Breaks...........

Busy old fool, unruly Sun, why dost thou thus through windows and through curtains call on us? Must to thy motions lovers seasons run?

A view through the belfry window of the Fredericksburg courthouse designed by James Renwick (the guy who designed the Smithsonian building in Washington, D.C among others) and built in 1852. One of the longest continually operated courthouses in Virginia. Oh by the way if you are waiting for Juliet to make an appearance it ain't happening.

A Cold Blast From the Past.......
Louisa County--With the temperatures here in the great Commonwealth of Virginia breaking 100 (that's Fahrenheit for those outside the Continental United States) along with the typical, and I should add miserable, humidity, I thought I would post a picture from our past winter. So how many of you are now looking back with fond memories of 36+ inches of snow? What I remember was getting stuck in snow banks four times. Two times I got myself out. On one occasion I was saved by an insured's John Deere tractor and the fourth time by a local towing company.

What the Hell is This You May Ask........
Somewhere in Fauquier County. This is a working....yes you read that right...working, steam tractor which was made by the A. D. Baker Company of Swanton, Ohio. The company was incorporated in 1901. The last steam driven tractor was produced in 1929. God I love being on the road.

Take A Closer Look........
Just off the Orange Plank Road in Spotsylvania on the Wilderness Battlefield. This is the site of Cemetery #2 which held the remains of 534 Union soldiers. The remains were later moved to the National Cemetery in Fredericksburg. The two indentations mark the sites of graves which were exhumed.

It's a Bowl of Fruit...............

"All that I desire to point out is the general principle that life imitates art far more than art imitates life."
Oscar Wilde

Retired from public office with some free time on my hands, and a Father's Day present from my wife of painting lessons (at least it wasn't a tie), I have embarked on a new phase in my life..........getting more paint on my hands and clothes than on the canvas.........It really is a bowl of fruit.

N’jeri, Brittany, and Nita

First up is N'jeri. She's 17 and this was her very first photo shoot. Even though she was nervous she did a good job and showed a nice range of emotion throughout the shoot. The second model is Brittany who shot for my Just Jeans and Little Black Dress series. Brittany is also new on the scene but was fun to work with and did great. Last but not least is Nita who brought a vintage look to the shoot that I found to be very refreshing and definitely a new look for my portfolio.
