This photo of Jesus was taken at Cunningham Memorial Park in St. Albans, WV in January 2009.

Ten Commandments

I shot this photo back in January 2009 at Cunningham Memorial Park in St. Albans, WV. I spent an afternoon there taking photo's of different statues and enjoying the great details within each statue.

The Bank of Glen Jean

The Bank of Glen Jean is located in Fayette County, WV. Built in 1909, the bank operated until 1939. An interesting fact about this building, is that the exterior walls are 28 inches thick. It also has a roof and floor of steel construction. The addition in the rear of the building was added on in 1917.

Creepy Crawler

I saw this creepy crawler while at a family reunion last week.

St. Albans Sunset

Croaked

While in Florida a couple months ago I decided to try something new. We ordered an order of frog legs and an order of gator tail. I must the admit that the gator tail was excellent. It taste like tough chicken. The frog legs on the other hand, weren't to much to brag on. They taste like swampy chicken. Definitely not what I had expected. Either way, it was neat to be able to try new things.

Forever "The King of Pop"

Today I watched the Michael Jackson memorial service held in Los Angeles, Ca. It brought back many memories for me. Growing up I listened to Michael Jackson, Lionel Ritchie and many of the other Motown artists on a regular basis. I owned the Michael Jackson action figure, trading cards and of course his music. Today we honor the "King of Pop", The inventor of the "moon walk" and most importantly one of the greatest music artists on Earth. Rest In Peace MJ.

R.I.P. Michael Jackson

Last night while at Riverfest, I heard the MC announce that Michael Jackson had passed away. Michael Jackson was one of the 80's stars that we grew up listening to and enjoyed his work. The photo above of Michael Jackson is from my trip to Potter's Wax Museum in St. Augustine, FL last month.

The Grass Stains played at the Pipestem Amphitheatre this past Saturday night. They put on a great show that lasted nearly 2.5 hours. (Click for a larger image)

Doe A Deer

We spotted this doe at Pipestem State Park this past weekend.

I Scream, You Scream....

We all scream for ice cream. I saw this ice cream truck outside my house this evening. I haven't seen one of these for years, but it sure did bring back good memories.

Hello Operator?

We ran across this sign at Beckley ARH Hospital about a month ago.

Karen Leigh

A few shots of the stern wheeler Karen Leigh that sunk in the Kanawha River near Haddad River Front Park this past Saturday. It took several tries until the cranes were able to successfully raise it.

A Capitol Reflection

I saw this reflection while at the Vandalia Gathering at the WV state capitol complex. The reflection of the tip of the capitol dome in a window of Buidling 3.
