Last week there was an air show at Tinker AFB.  The days prior to the show had the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds practicing in the area.  I took this photo from my front yard as the Thunderbirds were practicing overhead.  As enjoyable as it was to watch, it was very humid making it very uncomfortable [...]

This afternoon I was watching the NBA game between the Boston Celtics and the Orlando Magic when it was interrupted by a weather advisory.  They were telling about a storm that was moving into the Northwest side of Oklahoma City.  I quickly grabbed my camera and went to take some pictures.  The photo above was [...]

This morning we got out of the house to survey the storm mess.  I took some photos this morning to see some of the ice.  As you can see this picture was taken looking directly into the front door of the house.  I knew I better take this photo first thing in the morning because [...]

As much as I love my hometown, there is one thing that it really lacks in the winter time and that is color.  As the photo above is in black and white, it is representative of some of the days we have in the winter.  This is Ray Trent park in Del City on a [...]

Is there anything prettier than the changing colors of the trees during the autumn season?  Of course there is and it is my wife, but other than that, no.   I always love driving around this time of year to see the changing colors.  I have to hand it to the leaves this year for [...]

We are fortunate this year to have green grass in August.  It is not very often when the driest, hottest time of year ends up being very comfortable as it has been this year.  Oklahoma has a little of both cold and hot here being in the central plains.  We have about 36 inches of [...]

It is not that often that a person can get it so wrong that it brings fear to them.  Just 30 minutes ago I was complaining about the rain always missing us. This evening was shaping up to be another one of those evenings where there is a line of thunderstorms that goes completely across [...]

Tonight a storm went by here and barely brushed by us to the East.  We did manage to get enough light rain while the sun shine over head.  The one good thing that did come from this was this pretty rainbow to the East.  I will take whatever rain we can get but we really [...]

We went on our vacation a couple weeks ago and had a great time despite being dominated by a poison ivy breakout from an unmentionable place.  Among the many things we did while on vacation, we went back to one of our Air Force homes at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson, Arizona.  What can [...]
