Fast Food
I hate to admit this, but I have eaten an animal we hit during a rainstorm as we were driving down the road. Truth is, I have eaten more than one. It’s been a long time, and it was … Continue reading →

Recently, we had the opportunity to shoot in Wilmington, North Carolina. Michael Jordan is from Wilmington. They shoot movies and TV shows there. It is a friendly town, filled with college kids from UNC Wilmington and Cape Fear Community College. … Continue reading →

Cheap Vacations
With no money for vacations and more people taking staycations, other cheap excursions are gaining in popularity. We went to the Smithsonian Museums in Washington, D.C. this summer. They are free and filled with things to keep a family occupied … Continue reading →

A little girl walked out of the Ape House at the Washington Zoo last week. The sign above the door promised apes. It definitely smelled like apes, but the apes were not at home. They were all lounging and roaming … Continue reading →

The Trip To Crazy
My son and I left early, drove to New Haven, past Yale to the State Street Station where we boarded and rode the Express train into the city. We were going to refill our brains. We loaded up some neurons … Continue reading →

Dee and I were out on a shoot a while back, driving almost 600 miles in three days. We sweated and shot our way through Annapolis, Maryland and watched a freight train of a thunderstorm drop the 103º temperature by … Continue reading →
