Sam Goes to Lodi!

Posted by Brendan on September 12th, 2007 filed in bluegrass, bluegrass festival, parenting, photoblog

I finally got a chance to upload some pictures. These were taken at Pickin’ in the Pasture, an annual bluegrass festival in Lodi New York. If you’d like to read about the festival itself, which is fantastic, I suggest you go here, because when I go to festivals with Sam, I miss a [...]

Wind Gap, 8/3/07

Posted by Brendan on August 7th, 2007 filed in bluegrass, bluegrass festival, photoblog

I played at the Wind Gap Bluegrass Festival this past weekend with the Mill Creek Boys, who hired me as a sub bass player and then let me know I’m full-time. Thankfully, that’s not a huge responsibility as we never practice.
Unfortunately, that really showed during our first set, which was rougher than a fifty-grit [...]

Bees

Posted by Brendan on July 30th, 2007 filed in Philadelphia, bees, photoblog

I’ve written before about the impact of massive honeybee collapse in the US. Honeybees have never had an easy time here: they’re European imports and the climate isn’t favorable to them. The bees are largely farmed, and are vulnerable to disease, blight, and other troubles. The latest die off is more troubling, [...]

Sunday Photos

I have a large batch of photos taken during Sam’s last visit that I finally have a chance to post, including a few updates from the chaotic vegetable garden in my backyard and the long-delayed “Sam Goes fishing” series. There may be a couple of repeats in here, so bear with me. As always, [...]

I Found My Camera, New Sam

Makin’ mojitos with my old man. No we didn’t let him drink any.

At the beach.

More beach…

A final shot from OATS.
I treasure these moments. I don’t get that many. He’s coming back again the last week of August for a three-weeker.

Sam Goes To OATS

Posted by Brendan on July 2nd, 2007 filed in bluegrass festival, parenting, photoblog

This weekend, Sam came to the Out Among the Stars Festival in Benton, PA. This is my new favorite festival, surpassing Woodstown, NJ: the grounds are bordered by a beautiful little creek where you can go swimming and an airstrip, where prop planes take off and land throughout the day. The festival grounds [...]

Sam in May

Posted by Brendan on June 18th, 2007 filed in meta, parenting, photoblog

Sam visited in May for 10 days. He’s coming down again on June 28. I finally got the cable necessary to transfer photos from the digital camera to the pc, so here are shots from his last visit.

Sam was showing me that he had made his pretzel into a letter P.

I get my [...]

For a Right-Wing Conservative Christian…

Posted by Brendan on June 13th, 2007 filed in photoblog, snark

Mike Huckabee’s playing the gayest looking bass I’ve seen in a long time. That bass is so gay, gay people look at it and sneer, “How’s it going, MARY?”
