A photo journal covering part of my experience while living in Cobleskill and learning how to slaughter and process the main species of food animal.

A recent trip to Cape Cod to hang with the parents and Rora.

A quick 5-day trip to Barcelona to chill with little Renizzle.

The beginning stages of our patio garden for '08.

Our new office, come May 31st.

The Cape house is nearing completion. The renovation has been extensive and the results are looking amazing.

Photos taken while Andy and I were in these three locations. Sweden is separated into its own album for the Winter Racing event.

These are photos taken by the professional photographer who was at the event. After the event we received a CD with all these shots on it.

An amazing 4-day event in Arjeplog, Sweden driving AMGs in winter testing conditions

These are the photos I showed to my family, taken during our unbelievably amazing trip to New Zealand. More to come . . .

These are some photos from the trip, exported from raw images with no processing yet.

These are some of what I think are the best of the bunch, retouched in Lightroom and some in an HDR program.

A quick joyride on some supa-fast boats.

An overpriced brunch and wondrous stroll through Dumbo's state park with a favorite local couple.

A expectedly rainy and gloomy day turned out to be gorgeous. We pranced around the park drinking mimosas and playing frisbee in celebration of Carlota's 24th birthday.

If only we could live here.

Our little children flourish in the BQE heat.

A nice room in LA.

Hours of pouring rain, muscle-heads mud wrestling, obesity in soaked see-through clothing. I am too old for this shit.

Fun times at the farm wedding of the year for a couple who we love a whole bunch.

Following the greatest meal of my life at Alinea, Jess and I headed to pop my Millennium Park cherry.

Headed to opening day of Havana Outpost for Bobber's birthday. Craziness ensued with some horrible fashion on a makeshift runway.

Headed to Kenchucky to meet the Tango Dancing Pimp and the rest of lil Rora's family. A cute bunch they are all. I had tons of fun and it's awesome to meet them all.

Visiting my sis and bro's new house in Ashland.

Lil' lola is just such a great lil' person. She spent some time knitting a red scarf for the Red Scarf Project, a project by the Orphan Foundation of America. You can find out more info here: http://www.orphan.org/red_scarf_project.xhtml.

We trudged across the river for a grand dining event. International Iron Chef, Korea vs. Plymouth-Rock-Era America.

So gorgeous on my birthday and we got a chance to devirginize the Weber. Berd.

The Big Deuce Nueve.

Way too much to eat, drink and pay for. As always, mounds of fun with lil' Rora.

We had a small dinner party at the Cape house for the extended Danforth clan.

Lots o' love in da hizzie.

Another memorable night with the TPP staff.

Another NYCares event with the kids from Regent House. Lola is still sewing and thus missing... :(

Adams' threw a memphis rib fest. Here's the evidence.

We took the kids apple picking to Barton Orchards in the Hudson Valley area of NY, approximately 60 miles North of NYC.

Despite no hot water, first floor flooding and Four Seas being closed, this trip to Cape Cod was still a nice respite from urban living.

The final party at 12 Saint Marks Pl, my only NYC residence thus far. Now I've moved and this was a sweel way to say good bye.

Fun playing with the kids from the Regent house at Central park when we visited the Belvedere Castle.

Spending some time with my father and grandfather after the death of my grandmother.

A couple photos taken at the cemetary chapel, some taken at the grave site the next day since the funeral home initially dug the hole in the wrong family plot. oops.

location is Mount Auburn Cemetary (http://www.mountauburn.org/)


My flower note:

In Remembrance of a Loving Grandmother,

Who was helped in her search for heart and soul by the birth and
growth of her two grandchildren. Her warmth and love grew with each
day and every time we spoke I could hear the adoration in her voice.
With her departure remains a legacy of delicate affection, thoughtful
over-packaging and spoonfuls of milk. Her endearing quirks shall be
missed greatly.

It was so great, entertaining and touching to be a caddy highschooler once again. Connected with some people that I was sad to have lost touch with, witnessed life's cruel process on some deserving folks, and was reminded of so many faces that had diverted from name recognition.

folks, and was reminded of so many faces that had diverted from name recognition.

New Powershot SD550 came today. These are the first shots.

My new office in the financial district.

Even with a cheap camera you can get valuable photos.

My first explorations into HDR photos .
