So… at work this week, Joe and I discovered some photo effects on the Mac. I hope you get as many laughs as we did from them: http://flickr.com/photos/jaymeblackmon/sets/72157602850625902/

Hey Pretty Blue Eyes

Just wanted to say thanks for those goodies you sent with me to enjoy during my flight to and fro. I’ll miss you while I’m gone, but I’ll be back soon! Between work and sleep start thinking about where you want to go in October during your weekend off. I love you and I look forward to seeing you when I get back. I’ll call you.

Finally Some Grass

Saturday, September 15th, 2007

I spent the first part of my day on Saturday putting down some sod in the backyard. Mom and Dad went to pick it up on Friday afternoon at D&G Farms in Angier. Luckily we had about 20 inches of rain that night so it soaked the ground nicely. Anyway, with the help of Woody, Jennifer, Dad and Mom (well Mom was there for moral support, but she gave me wata) we had it finished by 10:30am. I think it turned out pretty nice and well worth the money for some instant results. Uncle Billy told me, “It looks good, but next summer it’ll be dead”. Nothing like some good ole Reaves optimism. He could be right, but at least I’ll get a year’s worth of enjoyment.

Armstrong Redwoods State Reserve

Wednesday, August 29th, 2007

I’m slowly but surely adding a video here or there from our trip to California. We managed to slip in a day trip to the Armstrong Redwoods State Reserve to see the gi-normous redwood trees. Justine and I did some hiking, about 1 mile to be exact. Let’s just say we bit off a little more than we could chew. The hike was pretty steep and hot once we started getting to the top. We thought better of it and decided to turnaround. This clip was just before the ascent.
