Sled Doggin’
I meant to post this awhile back. Got caught up with stuff, but here’s a few selects from a feature hunt I found one Saturday. Next time, I was told, I have to run dogs on a sled myself.
The Jailhouse
Yesterday I got to go through the old Natrona County Jail and Juvenile Detention Center in downtown Casper. The center, which has since closed because a new one was built, further fueled my obsession with old, abandoned decrepit things and reminded me that I’d never like to spend a night in jail.
The Bright Lights
A few that I liked from the Wyoming State Football Championships this last weekend.
More football…
A few from a three-way tiebreaker yesterday in Douglas. Just wait till state championships in a couple of weeks…
MPW.63 (Extras)
Just a few leftovers from MPW. I didn’t want to go over my 400-frame limit, so I used my phone instead.
Guernsey
Last week, I went out to Camp Guernsey on my way to Las Vegas for a weekend trip where I got to hang out with a Special Forces unit from Fort Campbell while they were doing IED training at the post. Mostly it was them driving around in Humvees with very large guns trying not to trip the fake explosives (baby powder triggered by a small explosive, like a firecracker).
Still, it was cool — and humbling — to meet some of the soldiers who have been out there on the frontlines in the shit, and even though them and I are pretty much worlds apart, we could still quote “Talladega Nights” together.
Thermopolis
Jackie and I stayed the night in Thermopolis last week, home of the world’s largest mineral hot springs. Basically, the whole place smells like sulfur. Once you get used to the smell, though, the town is actually quite nice. And hey, having a hotel room comped by the paper isn’t bad either.
True/False 2011
Every year, Columbia hosts the True/False Film Festival, also known as the best weekend in town. Here’s a few I liked from the festival, and the Tribune has a ton of stuff online too.
State Wrasslin’
A few I thought worked from the Missouri State Wrestling Championships this weekend here in Columbia.
The Border War: Missouri at Kansas
A few images I liked from Missouri’s game at Kansas last Monday. As a KU alum (yeah, I said it) going back to shoot a game is a little like going home: I ran into people I hadn’t seen in years, and I was a little sad when I had to leave.
I’m looking forward to the rematch in a few weeks.
