We were driving in the car yesterday talking about T-ball and baseball when Luke piped up from his car seat in the back row, “Um, daddy? I have a good idea! Mark can be the catcher, mommy can be the pitcher, I can be the batter, and you can be the vampire.” Mark said, “LuuuUUKke! [...]

On Sunday night, we were expecting to have our weekly dinner with the Greens at our house. Holly and Shannon are both on the RAW food band-wagon whenever they can be and so Holly wanted to make a nice RAW food meal for Shannon with home made raw chips, salsa, beans, guacamole sauce, etc. She [...]

These are my notes and thoughts on how to take group photos. I’ve done this a lot for the Newspaper. Each year the Dolphin swim club gets a shot of the whole group for their web site and for the booster ad in the Chilkat Valley News, and sometimes I get to shoot it. Last [...]

One of the reasons I haven’t posted much lately is that I’ve been staying until 6 PM at school to work out with the wrestling team. Having not wrestled in over 20 years, I’m a bit out of shape and am quite sore and tired most of the time. Thankfully, I don’t have to go [...]

I saw this video today from www.Godaddy.com, the company that I host my domain at, and really thought it was funny. It requires a bit of bandwidth. To be honest, it’s a bit out on the edge, as far as parodies go. It’s making fun of the 3rd circuit court’s decision to nix the fine [...]

This is not a story from me. It’s out on the web, you can check it out: Team Hoyt. A son asked his father, ‘Dad, will you take part in a marathon with me?’ The father who, despite having a heart condition, says ‘Yes’. They went on to complete the marathon together. Father and son [...]

There’s only one week left of Teeball: there’s a Wednesday practice, then a double header on Saturday. Today we went to Teeball and had a great time. Mark is really coming along, in terms of enjoying the game, hitting the ball, throwing the ball, catching the ball, and understanding the game. When he batted, I [...]

Well, Mark is old enough for T-Ball now, and so we’re getting started on that. It’s a little bit stressful for him, because we didn’t really prepare him for it mentally, or physically. We didn’t even get him any books on the subject for us to read to him–which is the standard procedure. We did [...]

Sunday, February 12, 2006 Petersburg vs. Haines games are being uploaded as we speak… (or as I write). It was fun shooting the Haines vs. Peterburg games this weekend but it was tiring. I shot, for the first time, with two cameras to enable me to use a wider range of focal lengths without having [...]

Monday, February 13, 2006 I have uploaded all but a small group of ‘crowd’ pictures from the Haines Petersburg series this past weekend. After the expiration date, the photos will still be available, but only from the archives page where prices start at $5.00 per 4×6 and go up from there so you will get [...]
