Many more changes to come on the new site and hopefully I will be able to update it much more frequently with a broader range of topics and photos.

Rockland and Five Town football mix it up

The Five Town Football jayvee peewee football club played Rockland at Wasgatt Field Saturday evening.



Rockland dominated the game from start to finish, but the young Five Town football players never gave up.




The jayvee peewee teams are made up of third fourth and fifth grade players. Rockland has some sixth graders on the team, but they did not participate in this game.

Hampton Beach vacation day three

Saturday we got out early and went to Portsmouth looking for an Apple Store with no success. Oh well.



On the way back we took route 1A which goes along the ocean through Rye Beach and into Hampton Beach where we both took some photos. We stopped at North Hampton Beach to get some photos of the surfer dudes, something we do not get a chance to photograph much here.





Tonight is Pat Benatar, but no photos as they do not allow cameras. Would have liked to have taken some.

Tomorrow we will be heading home and back to work on Monday.

Hampton Beach day 2, having fun

Last night I played with trying to get some shots with a subject in focus moving at a good speed with very little light. This is what you do when you are on vacation.

This was from the balcony of our motel room looking at the street below.

This is the motel we are staying at in Hampton Beach. It is called the Tides Motel and its OK, just a really funky bathroom that is very small.

Tides Motel on Ashworth Ave.

I did not feel real well today so not may photos from the beach, but I really liked this one.


The waves were coming in pretty well this morning, not what you would call surfing waves, but much bigger then normal for this area of the beaches in New Hampshire.


Kathleen got the biggest kick out of this one. We saw a lot of guys lugging a lot of stuff to the beach, but this guy was having all he could do to haul this across the sand to where his wife, who was not carrying much of anything, was waiting for him to get there. It was quite fuuny to watch.
