Well, here it goes, my first journal post on this journal. I would like to tell you about my weekend. I had a particularly fun and disappointing weekend. I was disappointed by the fact that a model I was supposed to photograph this weekend bailed on me for the second time. Not sure if I should schedule a third time with her or not. I also got a pretty nasty migraine on Saturday night.
As for the fun part. I watched some movies on Friday night while slowly sipping some rather tasty Irish Whiskey. The movies were Ghostbusters and M*A*S*H. On Saturday I went out to Phoenixville and started the day by taking pictures of the signaling and switching mechanisms along the railroad there. And then I began to walk. Before I knew it I had walked all the way to the railroad tunnel. The tunnel, Black Rock Tunnel is the oldest of its kind still in use in the US. I took some photos of it which I hope to add to Flickr sometime soon. After all of that I went into town for a late lunch back in town.
I went to the Steel City Coffee House and had a nice tasty Cafe Mocha and a roast beef wrap with pasta salad to eat. After eating I met the owner of Franco’s Italian Restaurant and chatted with him and another gentleman for a bit before searching the town for it’s Barber Shops. I also was sure to check out the brand new Gay Street Bridge and did some streaking light photography all along Bridge Street.
The next day (Sunday) was spent finishing the install of my model railroad signaling system. Also my wife (Lorin) and her mother returned home from DC. They brought Larry’s Cookies. Yum!
So that was my weekend.
