Best Picture I Took All Year

Apparently such things are not self-evident in Moran, Wyoming.

Speaking of which, I thought maybe some of you are wondering just what I was doing over the past six months while absent from this blog. Obviously I wasn't writing about it, but I did take plenty of pictures. Before we left Wyoming, I spent two days cobbling together a video that covers the whole adventure. It's only 11 minutes long and I worked really hard on it, so if you need something to distract you while the pasta cooks or the coffee brews or it's 7:49 p.m. and you're feeling ansty waiting for Extreme Makeover: Home Edition to come on, give it a look. If nothing else, it will be 11 minutes free of any Christmas music or teary-eyed plugs for Sears, a respite we all could use these days, I'm sure.

I'd put the video right here on the blog, but I didn't spend two days editing and picking out music just so it could be reproduced in a 1 inch by 1 inch square in the middle of the screen. Go to my Vimeo page and check it out there in a more presentable format. And crank up the volume. And leave a comment.

Fantastic video, great work bringing a slice of the Teton back country. I spent at least another 11 minutes after it was over reminiscing on my own trips there over the years, thanks for trip down memory lane.

You also didn't spend two days editing and picking out music for me to give your video a cursory glance, so I will save this for when I have more time this weekend. Right now = online Xmas shopping. And yes, you read that right; I took the Baby Jesus out of the word Christmas.

So, you didn't go back East after all that, did you? How will you live?!

Looks like a SUPER summer. Makes me want to learn how to climb.

Mickey, I think you're missing your calling as a documentary maker. That video was awesome. Seriously, dude. Find someone to pay you to do that.

SO GLAD to see a post from Mickey! The hunting closures happen in Northern Michigan too. I will watch your video soon!

Allie said...

Yeah, I agree with The MG. You do make a damn good film. :)

Well... it was pretty and all, but it needs more jigging.

You really need to get back to using your free time making videos for your blog. You're good at this.

Also, you have an infestation of Chinese spammers.

I'm the kind of guy who enjoys to try original stuff. Presently I am constructing my personalized photovoltaic panels. I am making it all alone without the help of my men. I'm utilizing the internet as the only way to acheive this. I encountered a very amazing site which explains how to create photovoltaic panels and wind generators. The site explains all the steps needed for solar panel construction.

I'm not sure about how accurate the info given there iz. If some people over here who had experience with these works can have a peak and give your feedback in the thread it would be great and I would really value it, cauze I really take an interest in [URL=http://solar-panel-construction.com]solar panel construction[/URL].

Tnx for reading this. U guys rock.

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of hardship when I didn't know about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright pessimistic person.
I have never thought that there weren't any need in large initial investment.
Now, I feel good, I started to get real income.
It gets down to choose a correct companion who uses your funds in a right way - that is incorporate it in real deals, parts and divides the profit with me.
