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.

Winter snow storm in Chaumont, NY

High winds and lake effect snow have been pounding the northern NY village of Chaumont the last two days. Just outside the village the wind has caused white out conditions resulting in many car accidents and cars off the road. Today we got almost two feet. I am more weary of the Winter this year than I have in at least five or more years. No surprise though, we have had a series of mild Winters in recent years. This one is more typical.
