Day 114: Purple Towers
Phoenix — 04/24/2010 - 01:00
The weather was kind of funny today, with rolling clouds and intermittent clouds and sun. The light was falling perfectly on these flowers to illuminate some and leave others in the shadows. The other option was a completely perfect shot of Troy in mid-sneeze...I think I'll save that one for something else, though. >:)

Day 113: Missed Sunset
Phoenix — 04/23/2010 - 01:00
This was shaping up to be a really pretty sunset, but unfortunately the neighbors houses were in the way. Sure, I could have gone out to the field to get a clear shot over the turnpike, but dinner was waiting. Dinner won.

Day 112: Still Working
Phoenix — 04/22/2010 - 21:17
I said that I would bring the tripod out this time, but I didn't live up to that promise. So the pic still isn't sharp enough to zoom in on those ants. Maybe tomorrow if they survive tonight's storms.

Day 111: Ants
Phoenix — 04/21/2010 - 20:00
Here is an ant's eye view of this anthill from the grass. Tomorrow I will give it another shot with the tripod.

Day 108: Irises
Phoenix — 04/18/2010 - 01:00
Apparently my husband hates irises. How can you hate irises? They're beautiful and smell good. These are some bearded white irises that I rescued from an abandoned school in an Oklahoma ghost town. I won't say which one...just in case. :)

I went on a ride called the OKC Urban Assault Dual Sport Ride sponsored by rideok.com The ride consisted of navigating to waypoints around Oklahoma City in the most creative manner possible.

Day 100: A Milestone
Phoenix — 04/10/2010 - 01:00
Not only is this the 100th day of the project, but it is also the last day that my little Canon SD worked. I guess I'm just going to have to lug the big camera around all the time now.

Day 97: Another Hotel
Phoenix — 04/07/2010 - 01:00
I seem to stay in a lot of hotels. Its getting a little tiring. This one at least had some character. Most of that character kept me up all night...like the cute little downtown location that semis like to jake-brake through, and the hardwood floors that echo each and every footstep. It was definitely cool from a historical standpoint, though. This is a photo of my room.

Day 93: Finally, A Ride Shot
Phoenix — 04/03/2010 - 01:00
After all, this was a weekend of riding, right? This was a stop along our street route on Saturday. Well, it wasn't supposed to be a stop, but the rocks sort of forced our hand. Here's a nice group shot before we had to double back.

Day 92: Disembodied Head!!!!
Phoenix — 04/02/2010 - 01:00
Doesn't this pic look creepy! I'm not even sure how that twig is supporting that helmet, but there it bobbles, like some bad special effect from a 1950s horror movie.

Day 91: Day 1 Riding
Phoenix — 04/01/2010 - 01:00
Well, we did ride, but we also did a lot of standing around. The ride shots weren't all that interesting today, so here is a flower shot.

Day 90: Not Doing As Well
Phoenix — 03/31/2010 - 01:00
At keeping up with this project. I would have thought that it would have gotten easier once the weather improved. The reality is that warmer weather brings many more distractions. This was one distraction...a weekend motorcycle trip. This was taken at a stop on the way to Eureka Springs, AR.

Day 87: Invasion!
Phoenix — 03/28/2010 - 01:00
Well that's what it sounds like, at least. Recently it seems that these helicopters have been flying over a lot. The noise level is probably similar to a nearby tornado, and the feeling is likely a lot like a small earthquake.

Day 86: Flying Coffee
Phoenix — 03/27/2010 - 01:00
I won't explain what the flying coffee is about. I just wanted to remind someone looking at this blog that THIS WAS THE DAY!!!
Anyway, here is a nice depot in Harrah, OK.

Day 82: Mallwalkers
Phoenix — 03/23/2010 - 00:00
I was introduced to the miracle of getting your "hair did" at the local beauty college at half the price of a salon, and thus found myself in Northpark Mall. I was shocked by two things: the price tags on the mall merchandise ($20000 fur???) and the number of mall walkers in there. I was mainly occupied with the second observation. The day that I was there was absolutely gorgeous...70 degrees...sunny...why aren't these people outside??
Day 81: Uncovered
Phoenix — 03/22/2010 - 00:00
Two days after the blizzard, normalcy returns. This pretty little bush looks more like Fall than Spring, but made for a nice last minute shot.

Day 80: Broc Again
Phoenix — 03/21/2010 - 00:00
He's just such a willing subject and so cute in the snow. Its a good thing we got out early, because the snow was pretty much gone by the end of the day. Easy come, easy go.

Phoenix — 03/18/2010 - 00:00
Went out to the field behind the house to ride dirt toys with our friends. This is the little one...not riding, but super cute!
