About this blog title

I cannot tell you how many times I have shown up at events with a couple of cameras around my neck, a gadget bag full of odds & ends and a lighting kit and have been asked that question. If it happened once every few years, that would be one thing. But it happens a LOT. It's like getting pulled over by the police and he's standing there with uniform, gun, flashing lights and asking him "Are you a cop?" I would love to come back with a witty reply, such as "No, I am Jesus. Don't you recognize my beard?" However, I cannot be that rude.

 Saturday February 8, 2025 at Orion Art Gallery, Mullin St,Watertown, NY. I pose with an oil paint portrait of me created by artist Jerry Merrill, Rodman, NY.

I was very honored that Jerry Merrill did this portrait of me. It will be a prized possession.
This day was Orion's winter art show and festival. One of the local radio stations was on hand broadcasting from the event. I did a short on air interview. Overall a great little event.

Guitar Gig and Floor Painting Today

Orion Art Gallery Summer Festival promo piece.

 I played guitar from 11:00- 1:00 today at the Orion Art Gallery as part of their Summer Arts Festival. I didn't get any photos of myself to post here. Later I gave our Clay St house a second coat of paint on the front porch floor. A few days ago on Wednesday I gave the floor the first coat of paint. I still need to paint the area in front of the stairwell door.
