Japanese Beetle Trap

Photo by jonna404

It took only 4 1/2 days for this to fill up. Note the bag is about 24" long!

Jonna put a “Japanese Beetle Trap” in the back yard. After 4.5 days it was completely full. Ugh.

A weekend at the camper gave us ample opportunity to take pictures of - water. This one is from Sunday morning, which started out nice and then turned into torrents of rain. I was really happy with how this particular picture turned out.

Who IS Next?

Kids

The next four pictures are the kids shot at trying to do a "who’s next" album cover.

This was taken in August of 2007 on the “Grandma Tour”. The kids decided they would try their take at a random pose “Who’s Next” album cover like picture.

We took a number of them. This was my favorite.

The final result. Notice - there’s no neck.

I guess it is always going to be surprising what is actually popular. This one picture out of more than 3,500 of them is the one that seems to get all the attention, according to Flickr stats as of April 18, 2008.

Halfway through exposure I put a candle in front of it.

Just playing around with the camera this evening, since it is raining and nothing is really on TV. There are more photos on the flickr site.

Google @ Outback Steakhouse

Google @ Outback Steakhouse

Photo by whurley

So on the Outback Steakhouse coaster tonight I noticed it says "I searched for myself on Google and found nothing". Anyone else think that’s weird?

Found this while browsing around on Flickr and it made me laugh. I didn’t know Outback had “geek” coasters. Maybe only the ones in Austin are this cool …

2007 Family Picture

Carol Gets A Back Seat for the Golf Cart

Photo by jonna404

Jonna’s parents have a camper up in Wisconsin. Their golf cart has no back seat, so when they have visitors, its difficult to show them around.

Back in June, after a trip up to their camper, Jonna searched Craigslist for a back-seat for their golf cart. We wound up finding our camper (a little more expensive than a back seat) - that included a golf cart with a back seat. Carol and Bob would borrow our golf cart when they had guests, so that they could drive them around the grounds.

As the story goes, later in the year another couple also went out searching for a deal on a back seat after a visit up to Bob and Carols camper. They wound up buying a camper for themselves as well.

This month, Jonna picked up a golf cart ornament she spotted in a Hallmark store for Bob to give to Carol. She spent some time crafting the fine back seat (seen above in Carols right hand) out of cardboard, bubble wrap, and one of my old t-shirts. Once she opened this, Bob walked her out to his truck to reveal the back seat she has long wanted.

See, Christmas wishes do come true. It wound up costing a few of us some money, but now we have somewhere relaxing to hang out in the summer.
