Happy SUNday! – my dad

Brooklyn, New York, c1919.

This isn’t a souvenir picture; my grandfather drove a horse-drawn Borden’s milk wagon, and my dad, Paul, grew up around horses. He’s about 6 or 7 in this photo.

Happy SUNday! – getting there

April 13, 2025April 13, 2025Chris and Carol Leave a comment

I’m in the final stage of re-siding my house. The last part to do is up on the roof, which isn’t the easiest place to work. I added a slate feature wall, awning windows, and a fresh coat of paint. I’m trying to beat the heat of summer.

This spot gets about 10 hours of summer sun, so it’s one of the most unpleasant parts to work on.

There will be a small fountain and some plants installed here.

The peak is about 16 feet up, and I’ll have to work standing on the roof. Ugh!

Happy SUNday! – Canon Crazy

March 30, 2025March 30, 2025Chris and Carol 2 Comments

Canon New F-1 set at the ready. The F-1 is from December 1982, and the lens is from April 1980.

Canon New F-1 with a Canon NFD 20mm f/2.8 lens.

Canon AE Motor Drive FN on my F-1. The drive is from February 1987.

The next time I go for a photo walk, I’ll use the Canon NFD 20mm super wide-angle lens on either this camera or my Fujifilm X-T2.

It’s always good to pick up plastic trash at the beach.

Happy SUNday! – Lionel Trains

May 26, 2019May 26, 2019Chris and Carol Leave a comment

A few peeks at some of my Lionel trains from the 1950s and 1960s. These trains saw some action!

“O” gauge locomotive.

He actually moved the milk cans onto a platform. Super cool!

Some random billboard ads of the day.

The 1960s missile train car – yep, the roof opened and a missile would fire – toy armageddon!

All of my trains have been sold off to various collectors. I just have the pics and great memories of playing with them with my dad.

Camera: Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W170

Have a beautiful day! – Chris
