Well it is Halloween here and it is creepy here in the 'hood. Yuko is still really sick with the morning sickness. I guess I shouldn't call it that because she is sick 24/7 and not just in the morning. I wonder when it will just be in the morning.

I will post a couple more pictures from this run then I will be adding a gallery for the walk we took. If you would like to get on the notification list, please let me know.

I am back again after a long week. I am sorry that I can't always get around to posting here. Well tonight I present another in a string of wonderful photos that my wife took when we took a fall walk around the 'hood. She really does a great job with her Canon.

On the other news front, we survived the Shania Twain concert here in St. Paul, Minnesota. I have to say acouple of things about the concert: First, the music was too lound and thusly left me wishing I could here the notes. It really sounded like mush. Second, I left wondering if she was lip syncing, as the songs were so much like the ones on the CD. Thrid, Shania was dressed funky....

Things I like about the concert: I thought it was great that Shania made the show a family affair. Second, the light show was pretty good.

The Night Before Shania

Well it is the night before the concert and I we are excitted. I only hope that Yuko will be back on her feet again for our big night. Her morning sickness seems to come and go. So let's hope for the best!

Well I made it to the end of another week of school. I can't wait until the weekend so I can take a nap. Well, to tell the truth I have to get my butt down to the local library to check out some book for a pair of 15 page papers that I have to turn in, in a couple of weeks.

I hope that I can get out and take some pictures this weekend. It has been awhile since I have shot some B&W and I am getting the the desire to get out there and chance to catch some history.

One down and only two more school nights to go. Well the weather here in the 'hood has really been nice. We have been watching the leaves fall and the cleanup has begun and once again parking is at a premium. Well I got a good spot tonight and hopfully I can get one tomorrow as well.

Minnesota is the state of the ever changing seasons. I hope you can find some enjoyment in the pictures that I post here.

I am back again and I have to say that Asahi bi-ru in going down smoothly. What a nice way to end the tough week for me. Well anywaz, here is a picture of a great friend of mine, the under cover attorney. We were at a nice local pub called, The Local. We had a great time visiting with our friend, Sable and her boyfriend, Steve. This pub is known for its awesome fish & chips, which I have to admitt is very good.

Oh man tonight is kicking my butt and my name is on its list. Well I will survive, I think... This is a picture from Yuko. I think she is really getting into taking pictures with me. What do you think? Please leave a comment for her. I love the reds of the leaves on this bush/plant. I think that is my shadow as I captured the same image on film.

Well it has been a busy weekend of us. I am so fired up about being a new dad. I am not too sure about what I should do with our new child when it comes, but I know a lot of places and thing I want to do with her/him. Yuko is groaning about all the places that I have been talking about. We are going to be an "outing" family.

In other news, today we spent the day with our newest friends, Asuko and Jason. Asuko, Yuko and I spent the day in Stillwater Minnesota. We went to many, many antique stores and Asuko even picked up a few items. The fall colors here are excellent! I have many pictures to post that Yuko has taken and I think there are many great ones. I will be posting these photos starting on Tuesday, so please stay tuned. I should be getting my pictures that I took with my brand new Zenit ET tomorrow. It will take me awhile to get around to scanning them, so please be patient as I am overworked and overschooled...

I have the greatest news! I am going to be a father! Ottosan. I am so panicked. What I am supposed to do?... Well I will try my best at being a good father. Here is the proof. I guess I have about 8 1/2 months to figure it out.
