Summer 2012

As I do most every year now, here's my annual 'Summer' web page. This is where I post all the miscellanious pictures that don't get a page of their own. It's a nice random look at the summer of 2012. This year, I also have an entire page of PICTURES AND VIDEO FROM LAUREN's CAMERA, so you can see her view of the summer as well. Keep in mind, these were taken over a four or five month period - so there are a TON of pics, and about 15 videos. Grab a cold one, sit back and Enjoy~!

I took these next few pictures during one of my business trips to Chicago.

Happy hour with Jeffrey (Angulimala) and Devin (Death of Rats)

And here's something you don't see often - getting a ticket from a mounted patrol.

These pictures were taken when the Vice Presidant was in town.

They blocked off almost every street to my building.
There were cops EVERYWHERE, but not one of them was directing traffic. It was a mess.
