Lake Worth Monster Hunting

My apologies that this is a bit after Halloween but honestly, it’s never too late for spooky stories. Okay, as much as I love a good monster or cryptid story I would not actually go “hunting” for one. I prefer to read about them. That being said, I did recently go hike at the Fort

Denton Square: 35mm Film Review

… and Bear (because he is cute). So I have been playing with some new film. All of these photos were taken on our Pentax K1000 with a fixed 50mm lens. I do have another lens for this camera but honestly, I rarely use it. I like the simplicity of the fixed focal length. When

Football on Film

At the start of the football season I had the opportunity to join Keltin on the sidelines for the Tarleton versus Baylor game. Yes, unfortunately Tarleton did loose this game. That being said, the photos came out pretty awesome. I shot these on our Pentax K1000 using black and white Kodak 3200ISO film, shot at

2024 North Texas Fair and Rodeo

The North Texas Fair and Rodeo is currently going on and we got to go last weekend. Yes, it was hot but not was hot as last year. We had a ton of fun, Keltin took the camera to take some pictures of my sister who is a member of the Fairgrounders. This is a

Niagara Falls: Crossing the Rainbow Bridge

Niagara Falls Banner

I spoke a little bit about the Rainbow Bridge last week but wanted to bring more attention to it. There are two ways to get across the bridge: driving and walking. Driving typically takes a lot longer because those crossing have to go through border patrol on each end and pay a toll. The actual

Niagara Falls Banner

Originally we did not have a wine tasting on our to do list for Niagara Falls. However, due to flight times we flew in a day earlier than we had initially planned. We already had a big falls tour scheduled with Niagara Regional Tours and my sister talked to them to get a winery tour

Small Town Kansas in Film

Over the summer we went to Keltin’s home town for the 4th of July. Keltin’s parents gave us their old Pentax K1000 35mm camera. The only film owe had for it right then was a roll of 400iso Kodak film that had expired 20 years before. Thankfully, expired film can be used. Quick research told

Phoenix in Review

This was a great – if hot – trip. We had the opportunity to see a variety of what Phoenix had to offer. There is more that I would like to do in the area, particularly hiking but summer was not the best time for that activity. If you missed any of the posts, see

Berlin: Reichstag Building

Keltin is a huge history nerd and one of the things that he particularly wanted to do in Berlin was to tour the Reichstag building or more specifically the dome. This is an actively used government building that houses the German Parliament. It is free to visit but visitors do have to pre-register and bring

Valencia: In Review

Valencia was a fantastic place to visit. We went hard for three days and walked over 25 miles. If you visit, wear good walking shoes as this city is extremely pedestrian friendly. If you missed a post, I’ve got everything categorized below. Safe travels, leave no trace and I will see you in the next
