Here is a mass of photos. Most were taken with a digital camera. Many were taken with a CoolPix 900. I haven't been too discriminating about what I've made available; if you're here looking at these photos, you either have interest in the subject matter, or you're bored and looking for something to do, and I can't guess what interesting tidbits you may find among the junk.
Skiing with Brett, Thanksgiving 2000 November, 2000
Coolpix 900
Skiing with my brother-in-law, Brett, during the 2000 Thanksgiving weekend. The conditions sucked, but we had fun.

Monika and Lily Dec 18, 2000
Powershot G1
Lily is a new stray we picked up, certain that someone would answer the "Found Cat" posters and ads we placed. She's a bit of a terror to the other cats, but she's very affectionate, and has personality traits of all of our other cats... as if she's an amalgamation. She was being really cute, so I snapped a bunch of photos. Digital cameras are great. These were taken with the PowerShot G1.

PowerShot G1 Dec 14, 2000
Powershot G1
This is the first set of photos taken with my new Canon PowerShot G1, which I DX'ed my beloved and trusty CoolPix 900 for. I'm not sorry; the G1 is a well designed performance tool. Anyway, these pics are of random and probably uninteresting topics. The quality varies, as I'm playing with the settings. See the ImgTest gallery for more info on settings.

Various shots around the house Nov 28, 2000
Coolpix 900
Here is a bunch of photos that don't really fit in any other category, but which, for some reason, at one time I thought fit to stick in one directory. Now that I've burned the photo collection onto CD, they're staying where they are, and all I can say about this photo collection is that it is eclectic.

Sky and nature Nov 28, 2000
Coolpix 900
We have some amazing weather in Bend. Almost every evening we are treated to spectacular sunsets; every morning brings an inspiring sunrise. This photo set attempts (and, of course, fails) to capture some of these events. There are also some non-sky-related, but nature oriented, photos in here.

Frost Art Nov 28, 2000
Coolpix 900
We get some interesting frost here in Bend. It gets really cold and misty, sometimes, and this generates some fascinating crystals. This section shows off the macro capabilities of the CoolPix 900.

Snowshoeing 1999 Nov 28, 2000
Coolpix 900
The Girls (sans Melena) don't like skiing very much, so they went snowshoeing instead.

Thanksgiving 1999 Nov 28, 2000
Coolpix 900
We had our first Thanksgiving at the house in Bend (Oregon) in 1999, a tradition which we hope to continue. The reason for this is really very simple: Mt. Bachelor opens for the ski season Thanksgiving day.

Don Giovanni, 1999 Nov 28, 2000
Coolpix 900
In the summer of 1999, we attended a production of Don Giovanni in Salem (Oregon). While I didn't take any pictures of the opera, I did take some pictures of ourselves before we went. Monika would like me to point out that she's lost 30 pounds since then.

My friend Ash Nov 28, 2000
Coolpix 900
These are some photos of Asher, one of my best, and oldest, friends.
