Brynna Dean of 100 Watt Mind @ Club 66 in Ashland, Oregon

100 Watt Mind will be rocking the Britt Festival next week. May saw 100 Watt Mind record their first, real studio album in San Francisco. No word yet on a release date, but hopefully it will be soon.

Nikkor 18-200mm G VRII Lens for Nikon cameras

I haven’t used this lens in over a year. In fact, I no longer have a DX camera or this lens, but I used it quite a bit when I was learning how to shoot with my first DSLR camera.

This was one of my first test shots with my Sigma 85mm f/1.4 lens, a lens that I still use regularly.

Also playing with Ritual of War and Burials a couple weeks ago was Stoneburner. Stoneburner should do a monthly show at Club 66.

Elijah’s custom chrome SG guitar was stolen soon after this pic was taken. If you see it, let me know.

I enjoyed a birthday cake (for someone else’s birthday) from Jolene’s Sweets this past weekend. I also had one of her scones, and I’m quite certain it was the best scone I have ever had.

Today’s photo is of a box of cookies from last month.
