Day 218

Thursday, August 24, 2023

A photo from the past: one of the rare occasions when (almost) all of the grandkids/cousins could get together.  Ryan is missing, but got photoshopped into a later edit.  c.1998? ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 211

Thursday, August 17, 2023

Gramma Sarah had an old photo for me when I went up to see her after the Fair: Uncle Curtis Lee Barrow (whom I am named after) and LA Barrow, my Grandfather on Dad’s side.  Uncle Curtis was the youngest of 12<?> kids and LA’s little brother.  Taken on 16 October, 1966, probably in Huntington, […]

Day 203

Wednesday, August 16, 2023

After about the longest lay-off I have had on this blog, I think I am 32 days behind…I did stagger through the night shift at Photography at the Montana State Fair.  After Dad died and then Aunt Bev, I was just a wee bit numb. Lugnut and ‘Stache, my two helpers for the Old Camera […]

Day 197

Sunday, July 31, 2022

It is FAIR time again!  In addition to watching the Photography Department in the evenings, I also fill the “old camera” display.  This year it was with the help of Charity, a GF Camera Club member. ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Bonus! Day 347, 2010!

Wednesday, February 16, 2022

Day 347, 2010… Coming home on Tuesday presented me with an interesting atmospheric phenomenon:  Anticrepuscular Rays.  The beams of sunlight you see during a sunset (and sunrise, too, I presume) are Crepuscular Rays.  Anticrepuscular rays are the same sunbeams of light, on the opposite side of the horizon from the sunset.  Despite the apparent fanning effect, […]

Day 22! Frohe Geburtstag Robyn!

Saturday, January 22, 2022

A happy and sad occasion:  Friend Robyn is having a Birthday! But she lost her precious Cat Jade yesterday. So hopefully this will cheer her up a bit! ========================= I tried to find a recent photo of Robyn: but I couldn’t find many good ones…she does love her chickens! Sometimes too much? And her Cat… […]

This is the old camera display that I fixed up for the Fair.  About half of them are mine.  Click on it to see a much larger image that really lets you see the cameras! ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>
