Last Time Clock?

Will this be my last time clock?

I had to take a self-portrait, punching out for the last time —
at least at this time clock.

Moving

When Delta told us our jobs were being outsourced, they offered the option of transferring to open positions in the lower 48, which is where Don B. (on the forklift here) elected to go.

Here he’s forking his own goods.

We’re not sure what will happen to it, now.

Thanks for all of your help!

Bless you, Don!!!

“Autumn In Wine Country” Workshop with Elizabeth Carmel & Jerry Dodrill – Day 2

My photos of the group in our 4-day Mountain Light Autumn in Wine Country workshop, taught by Elizabeth Carmel and Jerry Dodrill, 11/29-12/2, 2012 — Day 2.

I had a wonderful time, despite the extreme weather. Some said it was the worst storm in 30 years — about 10 inches of rain in 3 days!

NOTE: I don’t have any photos of the group from day one. It was raining too hard. I should have taken a photo of Allyn’s tripod umbrella holder, though.

chair

I concluded that the chairs at our conference room at Mount View Hotel (in Calistoga) were the perfect ergonomic design for posture and comfort in a straight back, wood chair. The large gap at the bottom of the back allowed the glutes to sit back so the lumbar support fit perfectly. The tilt also seems to be ideal. So I just had to photograph it. This is my new standard reference….

Faded NWA Colors

Some of our rear cargo doors (that the public doesn’t see) still have NWA cargo colors on the trim; though, the red is quite faded.

I shot this from inside the building during a snowstorm that dumped about a foot of heavy (just below freezing) snow.

Puddles

Eleanor Preger took this of me at the Autumn in Wine Country workshop
with Elizabeth Carmel and Jerry Dodrill.

It rained about 10 inches during 3 days of our 4-day workshop,
making it one of the worst storms in 30 years.

But there were still some lulls.

Allyn shot and assembled these photos as a remembrance of our 4-day wine country workshop, taught by Elizabeth Carmel and Jerry Dodrill, 11/29-12/2.

It was a great time, and actually very productive despite the extreme weather.

Nice job, Allyn!

Don’s Last Load

Little did we know that this would be the last time
Don would load a pallet onto a transporter.

Pocket Aurora

10/13/12

My attempt to shoot the aurora with a pocket camera,
laying flat on my back with the camera pointed straight up,
hand-held — thus the blurry stars.

Seeing this in person was far more AWESOME than what I captured here.
Huge donut shaped portions of the lights were pulsing
a bit faster than 1 beat per second.

I was left in tremendous awe of God:
“Lord, what would you have me to do?
With You with me I never need be afraid!”
