OK well no theme today. Just some photos for your enjoyment. I have no Idea stuff to write so feel free to leave comments and what not! First one is Dan Mitchell. Great Musician.


This one is of a tree up on Mauna Loa on the Big Island or Hawaii.


This is at South Point on the Big Island. The Southern most point in the U.S. Don't let Key West fool you!
Leaf with raindrops...discuss....:)


Also. Took a side trip when in the Dells to the H.H. Bennett Studio and History Center on the main drag in downtown Wisconsin Dells. H.H. Bennett was a pioneering photographer and based most of his work around the Dells. He opened a studio there in 1875 and you can now take a tour of it as it was then. Was still used to around 1992 using the same techniques he used in the 1800s. Its awesome. He was the inventor of the stop action shutter...which is kinda a big deal!:) No one believed him about it. At the time back then they had to have people sit completely still for 3 or so minutes to take a picture. No one believed this shutter was real..SO H.H. Bennett and his son went to stand rock. And H.H. Bennett took a picture of his son jumping onto stand rock and sent the picture around the world to prove his point. People were amazed by it! Someone seemly suspended in air! Anyway its amazing and defiantly worth a stop in the Dells.

Here is that famous photo. Also tomorrow is the opening of the newest bar in King/Waupaca Wisconsin. The Chain O Lakes Bar and Grill! You should all come check it out. Oso Beer tasting tomorrow night and live music Saturday and Sunday nights! Its gonna be fun! Thanks everyone. Have a great day!
