Hello from Northern Minnesota (200 miles North of Minneapolis) Well spring has sprung with rain we have had in the past day or two. However the fire danger remains very high! So please no fires in Northern Minnesota.
The studio is all unbundled from it’s winter wrapping and ready for business. Last fall we hung an New “shingle” on the road sign, it’s 5×7 feet and hard to miss.
This years addition has been in the planning stage for several years, it will be a 1960′s Gas Station set for the photography of Motor Cycles, Cars, Hot Rods, and people. Figuring out the logistics of what, who and when is the current process. Basically, I’m thinking Mayberry RFD meets the Clampets.
Once again, Lindell Trucking from Gheen, MN will be doing the dirt work, Denny Hill and I will be doing the construction and cement work.
Sweet Water Photo Studios has 16 miles of Adopt a Highway in the Togo area of Northern Minnesota. My daughter and I did the work yesterday, UGG! We both had fun afterward picking wood ticks off us.
The day was overcast but pleasant, at our half way point, we stopped for lunch at the Junction Bar and Grill for a couple of Bacon Cheese burgers and a house salad. We found lots of plastic bottles, aluminum cans and misc trash. No money however! When we got back home I made a steak dinner on the grill complete with grilled potatoes, peppers and veggies, num! After dinner Miranda made chocolate chip cookies! After the cookies, we discussed her future plans to attend Bemidji State in the Fall of 2010 and her move to to Bemidji next month
( her dad will miss her much!
