Off-camera Flash: Amps, Guitars, Fields, and Walls

My brothers amp. Well, some tubes on the back of the amp.

He was replacing the speaker in the amp, and here he is soldering the speaker to the speaker to the rest of the amp.

The soldering iron's home.

Those same tubes this post started with. They glow when in use. =)

My brother testing his amp out. Also, the lighting is from the experimental use a remote flash set on the couch.

These next several photos are in Lakota middle school's sports field, are rather fun night.

The rest are from my youth groups winter retreat. I will have another post with pictures from the rest of the retreat later, but here are some photos from one night at the retreat.

The wall is magnetic. :P

Yay! That is all for now. I am on Spring break, so I am expecting to do around two more blog posts before April 2. Thanks for viewing! :D

Dash Point State Park Walk

Sisters and cousins ... WHAZAP!!

I do believe that this photo was taken at the start of "Paul's Trail."
Not that significant, but probably worth noting.

... this probably resulted in a little bit of mud hitting me.

How to cross a bridge (with appropriate style, of course):

The Three.

Bird's nest in the bushes!

One just CAN'T  leave a forested place without taking that photo of the path going into its depths like that other photo they saw...
..I'll hope this is a little different. ;)

And here is all of us, yay! :D

Freezing Rain

It's hard to believe that just 3 weeks ago, the outdoors of much of the northwest was a winter wonderland/mess/storm... Well, here are the pictures from the Thursday of freezing rain:

Just past this gate was an area the snow was over a foot deep, and that evening when I walked over it, the layer of ice from he freezing rain did not break. That was pretty cool.

We didn't go anywhere that day... :D

Are blossoming plum tree was pretty much detroyed! =(

Aaand that night (and by night I mean we finished after 1:00AM.) we built an awesome snow igloo.

Making a hole for our ice window.

Here it is! All completed! :D

This is another one of those cross-eyed 3D pictures. It is of an "ice sculpture" I made out of sheets of ice off the snow.

And here end the days of snowy adventures! Click here for the first post of this snow adventure. And here for the second.

Here is the igloo just one week later:

It melted way faster than we expected.

:D
