Evening walk at the farm...
Gravel ride from the farm to Rainy Mountain near Cooperton, OK.
Recent restoration project, a Realistic Lab24b turntable. $4 at an estate sale, completely frozen up and non-functional. A few hours of work and a new stylus later, it's basically like new, and considerably better than I expected!

Calvin and Hobbes comic strip. In frame one Calvin opens a door and says, "Hey Dad, I'm doing a traffic safety poster. Do you have any ideas for a slogan?" Frame 2: Dad, who's prepping to ride his mountain bike, says, "Sure! 'Cyclists have a right to the road too, you noisy, polluting, inconsiderate maniacs! I hope gas goes up to eight bucks a gallon!'" Frame 3: Calvin, walking away, says, "Thanks, Dad. I'll go ask Mom." Dad responds from out-of-frame, "Why? That's a great slogan!"
Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson, one of the greatest comic strips of all time, was born on this day, November 18, 1985 -- December 31, 1995.
And Calvin's dad remains a beacon of inspiration to cyclists everywhere.
A little more random color film photography. This is taken on 110 film (if you're my age or older, you will recall this not so great format), using one of the best 110 cameras, a Minolta 110 Zoom SLR. Two images from the farm, and one from Union Station in Kansas City. #photography #110film
The Red Dirt Rangers, live in Stillwater, OK. These guys are the forefathers of Oklahoma "Red Dirt" music!
This popped up when I was ordering an LP on New West Records; it's rare enough to see newly manufactured cassettes these days, but the "mixtape" artwork won me over. It's all covers of early 90's music by Ben Lee, an Australian musician. PS- It's good!

Someone pulled this up from the recesses of the Internet, I think I originally posted it nearly a decade ago, and it's still true
8-track/amp/tuner rehab project from the thrift store. Took a while to get the 8-track going again...they sound better than I remembered, but it's not hard to see why it faded away as the cassette came onto the scene!
Heading toward spring in Oklahoma!
