Those dimes are a pain in the butt.

No explanation other than I was bored....

About a year and a half ago I went though a special training program put on by the Boy Scouts of America, Wood Badge.  This is an amazing training to any scouters that may happen to read my blog here and haven't yet gone though it.

Basically it's broken up into two parts.  The first is an intense 6 day course over two long weekends that covers everything from camping skills, to how to teach something, to conflict resolution, etc. The second part is what's called "working your ticket".  You can read more about that from the link above.  After you complete your ticket, and verify your work, you officially earn your neckerchief, woggle, and beads.  Again you can read about the significance each item with the link above. 

I earned mine last Wednesday.

Film Nior

I shot with an analog format this day, so nothing really to show.  Here is an image I created on an earlier date, developed it myself, and scanned the negative.  I was really happy with the way it turned out.  I didn't do any kind of post production editing except for some croping.

Mobile Phone Wednesday

I went for a drive last week (trying to get all caught up again) in upper Pasadena/Altadena during lunch and thought this was a typical "Southern California" image.

Finally Caught Up!

I'm finally all caught up with my posts (I think).  Today was, yet again, another rainy day in Southern California.  Not only was it rainy, but cold to boot.  I hear the snow line was down to 3000'.  Maybe tomorrow's post will show how far down it got.

Happy Birthday BSA!

On February 8, 1910 the Boy Scouts of America was formed as an official organization.  I could go on for days about this, but I'll keep it short so you won't get bored.  These pictures are from our little celebration at work.

Sunday's

After getting frustrated/freaked out that my new expensive toy wasn't working, I went outside to try and finish up my worktable by adding the door to the front.  I turned around and the way the sun was hitting the clouds hanging over Mt. Wilson; it looked like Mt. Wilson was a volcano erupting.  But by the time I got to the front and grabbed my camera, the color faded.  So just picture the clouds as kinda a red/orange color.
