Got some good people on the case of my suddenly ill Volvo here at Sechrest Garage in Williamstown, ky. She runs fine now, but we've decided to replace the apparently never-ever-replaced fuel filter. Over 200,000 miles. Amazing. l'm actually feeling grateful and happy. Hope that lasts.
My faithful Volvo wagon is ill! She seized up w/o warning on I-75 near williamstown. Once we got her to a mechanic, she starts right up!
I love my car.. Gotta get her better..

I've been working at the Kentucky Horse Park for a few months now and my main charge has been "freshening up" the Horse-Drawn Farming Equipment exhibit. The project is nearing completion, and while I couldn't have done it without the help of some very key people, I'm also mighty proud to have charted the direction of the effort. Working on museum exhibits is cool and fun work.

Bill and Susie Tyler (aka my parents) and a swarm of others have been busy as bees getting the Western Kentucky Botanical Garden ready for Big Bugs, David Rogers' traveling show.
The big day has arrived and Big Bugs have, too. All sorts of events are happening connected to Big Bugs. To see what's up (and to arrange a visit!), take a look here. Here's some pictures of KET's Kentucky Life crew filming a segment on Big Bugs.
There must be better ways to spend one's time than sipping a martini at the Cincinnati Netherlands Plaza Hilton. But I can't think of any at the moment.
After a short tranverse on bike-unfriendly Iron Works Pike, w're here at the Kentucky Horse Park! 2010 World Equestrian Games fans take heed: You can bike from (or to!) Lexington. Here's the details of my route.
The pool at Spindletop Hall, nearing the Kentucky Horse Park. It's hot, y'all. Next time: Maybe bring a swimsuit?
Biking to the Kentucky Horse Park from Lexington. Along the way, a visit with some young horsies!
The velocity portion of the jaunt: down a lovely private road thru UK's Coldstream Research Farm.
The cool, slightly spooky tunnel under I-75, which ends up in pure beautiful farmland. No monsters, that I can see. Looks like my sunblock is giving out, though.
Next phase of biking to the horse park: actual biking. Its a balmy, beautiful kentucky day; Cicadas, butterflies, the sky, the fields— and of course: thoroughbreds.
Giving a 1st try to my scheme to bike to work at the kentucky horse park, halfway to georgetown. Part 1: the #2 lextran bus to coldstream farm (sparing me the danger of newtown pike).
Coming to you live from a wonderland of plastic horsin around: It's BreyerFest 2008 at the Kentucky Horse Park!

A night out in grand rapids MI in the midst of the 2008 Stereo Photogrqphy Convention. Pictured: my grandfather's TDC Colorist 3D camera and (the remains of) a pint of Anderson Valley Summer Solstice microbrew. Delight.

Steve hughes discusses the amazing hackware Stereo Data Maker, which turns 2 canon point-and-shoots into a digital stereo camera... For a total cost of about $400 (plus some low grade electrical engineering). Way cool.Steve hughes discusses the amazing hackware Stereo Data Maker, which turns 2 canon point-and-shoots into a digital stereo camera...

In the flurry of stuff that seems to always be going on, I nearly forgot to post anything about this documentary that I served as an Associate Producer for. It's a look at the early days of WRFL-FM-88.1, which I helped to start. 20 years later, I worked as the Lexington producer for this bit which owes its existence to producers Kakie Urch and editor-producer Ayser Salman. This is part 1 and here's part 2.
Trucks and shovels and measurements and sand and gravel and screeds later, the patio that Lucy and I concocted is finally starting to look like ... a patio.
One of the great comics and — more importantly — social commentators of our times, I'm going to miss George CarlinAfter finding (and paying dearly for, btw) these gloriously saggy heirloom tomotoes at Kroger, of all places, I couldn't help but want to photograph them. Ed Weston, I ain't. A friend told me that Weston shot things like this pepper inside a tube. Some of great photography is definitely about clever.
I'm becoming obsessed with my Jades/Crassulas thanks to the wonderful folks over at GardenWeb.
in Soddy Daisy, TN, everybody does "the Chicken," which is a hand position designed to hide the ever encroaching "waddle" that comes with age/wisdom. Note: Bill, my dear stepdad, is for some reason doing "The Vampire," which is a different photo move altogether.
