Day 136 Project 366 – VW

Ken Worley — Tue, 15 May 2012 14:00:49 +0000

We got a new car this weekend, well it’s new to us anyway. I bet you’ll never guess what make it is.

Yes, it’s a Volkswagen. I owned a 1972 VW Beetle once that I had to stick my arm through the hole where the radio should have been to operate the windshield wipers by moving the metal arm that connected the two wipers together back and forth. This car is much newer than my other VW with many more bells and whistles. The car I’ve been driving for over two years now has not had A/C, so I’m looking forward to driving in a cool car again.

Day 135 Project 366 – Morning Moon

This photo was made just before sunrise. It was one of those times, I wish I would’ve had a tripod handy. It’s still a cool shot, if you look closely you can see the unlighted side of the moon and the clouds laying low in the sky.

Day 133 Project 366 – Ambulance Chasing

Ken Worley — Sat, 12 May 2012 13:00:47 +0000

This was my view for part of the day. Let me start by saying that everyone is fine. My wife and oldest daughter were inside the ambulance, so I was following it to the hospital. Lindsey was waiting to perform with NJROTC at Academy Day when she passed out and hit her head hard on the concrete floor. Other than a nasty bump and a throbbing headache, she came out of the ordeal fine.

Day 132 Project 366 – Tub Planter

I teach a photography class on Fridays for Cameras for Kids Foundation. I have the opportunity of showing kids how to see the world in a different way, through a camera lens. The image below was taken while we were out shooting during one of the classes.

Day 131 Project 366 – Invitations

Ken Worley — Thu, 10 May 2012 12:27:12 +0000

I enjoy it when all my family can have dinner together, so today was a good day. My oldest is in college, man that makes me feel old, so between classes and his work schedule, he does not get to come over very often. Tonight he and his fiance came over for dinner, I really hope we can make this a weekly thing. After dinner we all gathered around the table and help them with the invitations for the wedding. I love the wax seal with the W stamp in the middle. I might have to start writing more letters so i can get a wax seal for myself.

Day 129 Project 366 – Typewriter

Ken Worley — Tue, 08 May 2012 13:24:07 +0000

I’m not the writer in the family but my awesome wife Jamie is and really wanted to get her an old typewriter for her office. I never thought it would be hard to find a cool old typewriter for her, but I want one that is still in working condition and it has to have the right look for her office. I will find a typewriter that meets my specification one day. But until then I get to walk around in antique stores and I might find an unique old camera in the process.

Day 128 Project 366 – Lost Dog

Ken Worley — Mon, 07 May 2012 23:57:49 +0000

This dog is trying to make a new home outside one of the local business. It startled one of the employees as he came to the front door to start his day. I think the dog was more afraid of him than he was of the dog. I’m curious to see if the dog will be back tomorrow. One of the employees said that they should use is as a guard dog and get rid of the alarm system.

I know it look very cute laying behind the flower pot, but the low growling when you get closer to him takes a little of the cuteness away.
