my old friend mark conforti has started blogging. mark, i know, was one of the first people to hear about this blog. what is funny is that as young person friends go, mark and i met through service with mountain top but his wife mary allan crafted a friendship with erin working at lake junaluska. years later we’re all some odd happy family.
music monday : john goes boom
a little blues for the day. classic are some of the faces of the people dancing.. not to mention their dancing
note to self : no pictures of people kissing
we had our final summer event sunday evening. it was a traditional pool party. we moved the traditional site though one of our youth leaders million dollar residential properties they renovated and have on the market. we’d been out there before for food break when we had a day on the lake. so i had pictures. i took those pictures to make a poster for this event. i thought it was a pretty good poster… till this evening.. the youth informed me that one of their own is making out right smack dab in the middle of the poster in the picture i put up there. sure enough.. he is, and i did. (i added the new caption)
i’ve got no problem with some light pda. been around it a long time. this however is a first for me. gosh i hope it will be the last.
why i love olympics : why i love the president
adam likes this pic.. me, i’m a fav of this one.
i know i wouldn’t fair too well if photographers and videographers followed me around, but they don’t so i get to pick on those that do. as adam pointed out, the prez has left himself open for some.. interesting.. images at the olympics. surely you will see one or two on the daily show.
