HBC!


Saturday Eric, Delia and I left Fayetteville before sunrise to go look for a herd of wild elk in the Boxley Valley near the Buffalo River. It was pretty cool. We found the elk, about a hundred of them. They were awesome but the temerature was COLD! According to the National Weather Service the temperature was 10 degrees at 7 a.m. when we found the herd. BBBBRRRRR!!!


After the elk we went to check out Hawksbill Crag. Lucky for us the weather warmed-up to the all-day-high of 23 by the time we were on our way hiking through the woods.


Also very cool.


I also decided to try my hand at video and produced a little movie of the trip. Now this is my first time working with video so please be kind, make sure your sound is on and click play.
Enjoy!

Fatso!

News Flash.... I'm fat.

I'm not going to post a photo of my fat ass but take my word for it or check out some previous posts, I am fat.
Since my birthday last October I have been on the ol' See-Food diet.
That's right, I see food and I eat food.
Good news though, this week I began exercising and the E.L.F. (Eat Less Food) diet.
To aid in my weight loss and new healthy lifestyle my managing editor and I signed-up for “Train for the Cure”, a seven session training program with UA Track Coach McDonnell and former and current U of A track stars to be prepared for the "Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure" 5K on April 19, 2008.
We had our first session Tuesday during which I ran one mile in 13 minutes and 36 seconds. I know, not a blazing fast speed, but I haven’t run in… well forever.
Hopefully by April 19 I will be a lean mean running machine.

Bowled!


Here is the "A-Team" with 41 minutes and 31 seconds till go-time. It was a beautiful, long day and I was glad to be back in my own bed in Fayetteville by midnight. Arkansas lost to Missouri 7-38. Better luck next time.

High Cotton!


Greetings and Happy New Years from the 72nd AT&T Cotton Bowl Classic Photography Workroom in Dallas Texas. It's 9am Tuesday, January 1, 2008. I went to bed at midnight last night and I've been up since 5:45 this morning. I slept poorly because I snore and my rommate has the un-canny hearing of a bat. All night long I was attacked by flying pillows and curses.
We are leaving here to go home just after the game and I should be home by nine or ten pm. It's going to be a long day.
