De-frogging the Window Well

Posted on May 26, 2009 by under Flickr, Videos.    

Brian helped dad de-frog the window well yesterday. Dad went to Lowe’s that morning and bought chicken wire to attach to the grates to keep frogs and toads and other trash out of the window well in the future. It was quite a productive morning.

No reptiles were harmed during the filming of these videos. The toad was released safely back into the wild.

By the way, the toad had excellent camouflaging skills. Check out how it changed color to match its background.

Toad in the window well… matched the sand.

Toad outside the window well… matched the dirt.

Can you believe that is the same toad? Toadie had mad skills!

P.S. I’m proud of Brian for having worn pants that actually fit him quite well. Despite the numerous times he had to bend over, we didn’t get a glimpse of his crack. Not even once. Good job, baby!

You can find some of the pictures Brian and I took here. You can view my Delano Photo Walk set as Flickr slideshow also.

I’m sure there are other collections out there. If I have missed posting a link to yours, please feel free to add it in the comments. Thanks!

Our First Photo Walk

Posted on May 23, 2009 by under Flickr, Things to Do, Web.    

Days like today make me wish I had a real camera.

When I first told Brian about going on the Delano photo walk, he wasn’t so thrilled. If he had his choice, he’d sleep until 1 pm. The last couple of Saturdays, I’ve managed to find things to do that require us to get before 8 am so he’s not too happy with me right now. However, I made it clear that his presence at today’s photo walk was entirely optional. He was reluctant, but decided to go citing that he would never let me walk along Delano by myself. I pointed out to him that the photo walk is during the day and I’d be with a bunch of other people so I wouldn’t exactly be by myself. Brian is a bit paranoid, though.

Though it wasn’t quite how he envisioned his Saturday morning, Brian went and actually had fun. I think it’s safe to say that Mr. Reluctant is eager to attend the next one. We both agreed that we needed a real camera, though. After looking at some of the photos taken by others, ours just look blah. We blame it on the camera.

Days like to today make me wish I had a real camera, but then I can’t justify spending the money on a nice one because I’d never be able to find the time to learn how to use it. There’s nothing more sad than a fantastic camera that’s gone to waste. For now I’ll have to live with my point-and-shoot. If the picture isn’t quite right, I can always edit it in Picnik. =P

Here are some of my favorites from this morning’s photos…
