Well this year we started out the season buy camping at Evangola State Park. This is where I keep my boat. So the Goonies and I camped on the grounds and hung down with the Fleet during the day.

I was a pretty good weekend -minus a minor setback-, I got a lot of work down on the boat, and we all had a blast.

Not only was this my roommates first time camping, it was also my girl Jess's first time -which I think she did a pretty good job of, although it was only car camping-.

Check out this small set -one day was cut short- and feel free to coment.

How did I get this way? Well the album following the jump will illustrate the whole evening. Here is the final installment of the St. Patty's Day weekend in Buffalo. These were taken by me mainly at the parade in Allentown - which is where we go each year for this event -. The usual suspects were there -with the exception of Mordiki and Paul- but you will see Anth, Dave Jeremy and a few new faces.

This album is very overdue for publishing but what can I say, it does take time to process all of these, plus I can get a bit lazy. These were taken at Buke and my house at our St. Patrick's Day party this year. My old man and Mr. Doyle came which was really cool, a number of friends from work as well as the regular Goonies. Check them out and feel free to make fun of us in the comments.

Anthony, my roommate Buke and I recently went to Philadelphia for a little R&R. While we were there we just had to spend some quality time with one of our childhood hero's - Rocky. Here is the pictures we took while hanging all over this classic statue.

I was going to wait until I had touched up all of the trip pics, but my Scottish friend Richard from the Movie Blog, just recently posted a story on the new Rocky Blog, so I figured I would toss them up on the site as is.

So sorry for the delay, but I have been so busy these days moving into my new place (pictures of that coming soon). Well here they are, the long awaited pictures from our camping trip on the 4th.

The whole trip started off great, then after sailing with a few friends I broke a rudder coming back into shore. So the boat was out of commission for the rest of the trip. Still we all had a great time.

Yesterday my boy Paul had a little get together at his place. Nothing major just some good friends, food, beer and some summer brew. It was good practice for the coming weekend, but I for one should have stopped around 6:00 - but noooo, I had to keep going, and getting into Paul's Johnny Walker Gold Label and getting completely hammered. So needless to say I was relatively useless at work today. But I don't think I was the only one suck'n them down lile Coca-Cola.

Every year my friends and I take the Buffalo St. Paddy’s Day Parade very seriously. We don’t mess around; each year there is a new crazy story to tell and battle wounds to boot. This year I couldn’t get the following day off to recuperate, but I still made it out alive with only a minor headache at work today. I am trying to make up for the lack of pictures I took in Las Vegas, so I warn you there are many more in this collection. Check them out we had a great time.

As I mentioned before, I am back from Las Vegas and holly shit what a trip. I think we spent a few too many days there – at least that was what every one we met told us – five whole days in sin city, and let me tell you friend, 3 days would have sufficed. I would love to write all night about my experiences but I just don’t think I would do it justice, so instead I am just going to show you the pictures I took – when I could remember to bring my camera -. As you will see the majority of the pictures were took in the hotel room, so you will really have to use your imagination; but common who wants to lugg around a camera in Vegas baby.

Last night, in the heart of Buffalo's artistic district Allen Town, artist Tammy Wetzel hosted an exhibit titled "The Divine Feminine: A Goddess-inspired interpretation of the Tarot" a digital montage. Invited by a friend, I asked if it would be OK to bring along my camera and snap a few pictures of the night. Tammy was extremely nice and allowed me to click till my hearts content. The evening attracted quite a turnout, packing in over 50 or so local art coinsures into the studio at 91 Allen St - I even saw my eye doctor there -. The main attraction - the digital prints - were hung along the perimeter of the studio, and if I may say so - and I am no art critic - the Tarot prints displayed complete mastery of both photography, digital art/media and of course knowledge of the subject matter. The wine poured freely - perhaps a bit to freely for myself, so if the pictures I took came out a bit blurred you know why - the food was fantastic and the music - performed by local talent which I failed to get the name of - aided in setting the tone of the night very well. The exhibit will be showing through April 2nd on Wednesdays - Saturdays from 12:00 - 5:00pm, I highly recommend checking it out if you had not last night. The following are some of the better pictures I took from the event.

Well for New Years Eve, I had a little get together at my house with some of my closest friends, and it was a blast. Here are a few pics from the night that I took on my digital camera. Most of them are just touched up a bit, but some I jazzed up, tell me what you think.

Mordiki, Anthony and Buke
