Mason Mill Park/Decatur Water Works photos

by Rusty

These were taken a few weeks ago. They’re focused more on the Decatur Water Works than on the natural part of Mason Mill Park, as I didn’t know MMP was about to be gutted when I took them.

See the Three Forks Heritage Alliance web site for info on how to help stop the PATH project that will gut a lot of the wooded area.

Compare and contrast: Buford Dam, then and now

by Rusty

I was up in the Cumming/Suwanee area this morning to provide some Flash training, and afterward went and took some photos. Here’s a photo I took of Buford Dam today:

Buford Dam

Compare that to a photo Amber took in July 2005:

Buford Dam July 2005

If that’s not enough evidence of a drought in progress for you, try this one on for size:

Boats in front of Lake Houses near Buford Dam

Those used to be docks in front of people’s lake houses. I have more photos in a set you can view here.

Also, I took a bunch of photos of some Herring Gulls that congregated in a Wal*Mart parking lot. This was a bizarre sight to me because we don’t really seem to have gulls around here.

Full set here.

Not my best work, but these at least will give you an idea of what it looked like.

Photos: Gameday in Knoxville for Arkansas-Tennessee

by Rusty

I don’t know exactly how many Tennessee games I’ve been to in Neyland Stadium, but I’m guessing around 25 or 30. Yet I’ve somehow never managed to take any photographs or partake in the pre-game traditions (the Vol Walk, etc.). Typically, I was either busy getting drunk or sleeping off a hangover before games. So, I finally got around to all that on my trip up this weekend. Photos below.

I tried to count how many times I heard “Rocky Top,” but lost track somewhere between 10 and 15. My rough guess is 40 or 45.

ConvergeSouth photos

by Rusty

We rolled into Greensboro in time for the last ConvergeSouth session yesterday, then adjourned for a few hours before a 6 p.m. barbecue. More to follow later perhaps. I realize I haven’t been very good about covering these events in a journalistic or even a journaling sense lately, but you get what you pay for.

Milledgeville photos

by Rusty

This is a gallery of photos I took in while Amber and I were in Milledgeville last weekend. Also, have a look at the awesome photos Amber took of Central State Hospital. I was driving, and we didn’t really want to get out of the car, so I didn’t take any photos of it. There was a very creepy vibe at that place.

Laproscopic Gallbladder Surgery guide

by Rusty

Here’s the Laproscopic Gallbladder Surgery guide the doctor gave me a few days ago, complete with hilarious illustrations.

You can view larger versions in the Flickr set here.

My surgery was going to take place tomorrow, but has been put off until May 18 so that it can conflict with the podcast party Amber and I had planned for May 20. At least now I’ll get to see the North Fulton Drama Club’s production of Much Ado About Nothing.
