The early morning hours
3 years ago
An absolutely beautiful morning. Were it not for pools of pudding-like mud, it would be perfect.
Few words here. The pictures tell the story just fine.

Changes
3 years ago
The rain finally stopped.
The weather has changed the routine a bit from last year. If the weather had been more cooperative earlier Friday evening I would have had something to post. But, given the steady rain we had a lot of the tasks that normally take place then were bumped back. So, the first update of the night is this one. This one covers the period from about 11:00 p.m. Friday night through 3:00 a.m. Saturday morning.
Below are some samples from this set of images. If you want to see the entire set (about 110 shots) click here.

I’ll be back in a few hours with more photographs.
More rain in Long’s park
3 years ago
Below are some selections from the afternoon shots of this year’s Sertoma BBQ. The rain continues to make everything sloppier. Simple set-up tasks are tougher (if not next to impossible) and no matter, you’re wet, cold and muddy.
The good news is that all the trucks are here with everything to go into the dinners. Everything is in place and mostly ready to go. Soon, the hard work begins.

The first images from the Sertoma BBQ
3 years ago
I was there this mornning at 9:00 a.m. The rain, well, it’s not good. It’s supposed slow down or stop at some point today. Hopefully that point will be sooner rather than later.
The standing water in the park from the night long soak is bad enough, if it continues to fall it will make things much tougher.
Here are some shots from this morning.

Thanks for stopping by!
I’ll be there all night and all day tomorrow and I’ll be updating this site and the Flickr Gallery as often as possible (probably about once an hour depending on the quality of the internet connection). Keep checking back for updates.
testing bluetooth
I’m testing connecting and uploading through the Bluetooth connection on my cell phone. This is what will enable me to update during the Sertoma BBQ Friday night.
It seems to work.
A week in the life
3 years ago
Here’s what I’ve been doing for the last week.
First Friday, a shot from Gallery 141…
The second wedding I’ve shot in two decades (I don’t shoot weddings, this was an exception for a very good friend)…
Team WeeBee racing at Lanco…
Equal rights rally…
Kids visiting the Lancaster Museum of Art’s Maurice Sendak exhibit…
A shot from a lunch promoting the Convention Center where a video that I made from my images of Lancaster was shown…
Artistry In Motion vintage car show…
YWCA’s Race Against Racism…
McCaskey High School Senior art show at Building Character (which, by the way, was a wonderful show)…
Vintage Datsun 1600 being worked on at WeeBee Audio/Video…
Shooting a TV commercial at WeeBee Audio/Video (Watch Blue Ridge cable, channel 11, Sunday’s at 3:00 p.m. to see the commercial)…
That’s a busy week.
Two things stand out here.
One, I love my work. Look at what I get to do.
Second, Lancaster is an amazing place. The variety of things to do in any given week is simply astounding. The beautiful surroundings, the friendly people. I love my city.
Today I’m working on a jewelry catalog and web site, a catalog for a racing products manufacturer and work for the rest of the my regular clients.
And, as Linda Ellerbee used to say, so it goes…

Click on the “Sertoma Chicken Barbecue”.
Speaking of which, this is the place to be for images from this year’s BBQ. I’ll be posting “live” from the BBQ over about a thirty hour period.
