Car wash

They were raising money for a new church parking lot. I managed to stay dry.

Garth

was at the Sanilac County fair today at the petting zoo. The atendent said that he can only be out for a couple hours at a time because he gets nippy. I'm going to get this one framed and hang it in my house some place. Maybe the bathroom, he can look back at you while you are doing your business...
These kids were at the rabbit fun show at the St. Clair County 4-H and Youth Fair Thursday afternoon. I've had just about enough kids and animals for one week.

Big mess

For the second time in six months a Canadian trash truck has seen the need to tip its load in the middle of the interestate. at least this time it was only construction waste, a lot less stinky than the household garbage a few months back.

Fair




There is nothing like it. Growing up it was alway the best week of my summer. I spent part of the morning at the St. Clair County 4-H and Youth fair making a few photos and talking with people I haven't seen in a while. Here are a few that I liked.

Old Lincoln School



I looked at my assignments this morning and found this gem in the box. I was going to cover the dedication of "the old Lincoln School". It wasn't as bad as I thought. Older folk's clothes make me chuckle. At the same time I can't help but wonder about the places they have been and the things they have done. Their minds are so full of history and incite. I like old people.

Boat race





This week was boat week which ment long hours behind my camera and video camera. Out of all the hundreds of images I took in the last three days the first is my favorite. Just the street light with people walking along the Black River at dusk. Lots and lots of people liked walking by the river to look at the boats Friday. Saturday was rough. I spent the better part of the day on a powerboat bobbing in six-foot swells trying to make pictures between leaning over the side of the boat. I'll have some good ones next week, it's time for the fair.

"Oh what a feeling"



John wrote our names on our new front porch today when I couldn't get there to do it myself. He winks at me a lot. I like it.

Highlight

It is sad to think that this very cupcake has been the highlight of my day so far... Molly spet 50 cents at the Music festival on it. I'm ready to go home. See you all tomorrow.

"No worries"





They all shouted before letting go of lime green balloons, his favorite color, for Mike McNash. Mike died a year ago in a feak boating accident, he was and still is loved by his family and friends.

Cruise night



John has been looking since spring for just the right Mustang, yesterday he found it. I can't wait to go for a ride. Classics and customs filled the main drag last night on their way to the north end of town to park and show off a bit of chrome.
