prison tour


Mercer County Jail had an open house today. There were no prisoners, so they emphasized the potential for this as a family event.

buckeye blowout

Last weekend was spent waking up way too early to make a trip to Columbus and the wide world of sports. On my journey through this perpetually unfamiliar territory, I shivered from the cold and sweat from the heat, whistled "We are the boys from Old Florida" song in Ohio Stadium, witnessed my very first Script Ohio and rediscovered my appreciation for college football media lunches. Mmm. Free Oreo McFlurries.




The game, as expected by everyone but me apparently, was a blow out. 45 to 3. Knowing I already had plays that the paper would be happy with and no imminent deadline, I walked around the Horseshoe and took photos for fun. Check the set.

brey's, barnstorm and back


By whatever freak glitch in the system, I was lucky enough to attend the Eddie Adams workshop this year. The green team rocked. You can see all ten teams' multimedia presentations online. Our theme was Generational Farms. Neil's multimedia is great. I was assigned to Brey's egg farm -- a third generation farm in Jeffersonville, NY. A set with my favorites is up on flickr.
