Handcrafted Charcuterie in Twisp, WA
Proud of his custom work. Some nice cheeses in the refrigerator case, too.
Chris Thomson shows off his handcrafted charcuterie. In the meat case- Andouille and chorizo sausages. Some smoked and some fresh sausages, sausages for breakfast, Italian sausages, you name it! The local restaurants had bought up all the bacon today. Thomson’s Custom Meats LLC 992 Twisp-Carlton Road, Twisp, Washington 98856. Turn off Route 20. Known for natural, locally grown meat. A flock of Katahdin sheep grazing outside his shop. Free Range chickens. He said I should go with them to photograph them as they catch the salmon they’ll smoke in the smokehouse real soon. He gets the salmon with the shortest migration so they have a higher fat content. Phone# 509-449-1563. Check out his website for more information. He’ll process your game by appointment, too!
“It’s a Boy Thing”, My Brother Said
Looked dangerous to me. They were far away. Shot with a 24-70 mm L series lens. Cropped to see the guys jump off the rocks into the alkaline lake. There are three views of the same frame, figures jumping get smaller and smaller. A mini-slideshow.
On the Colville Tribal Reservation, “Omak Lake, the largest saline lake in Washington, is located southeast of Omak. It lies mostly within a steep-walled valley and is the principal body of water in the Omak Lake watershed. Omak Lake has no outlet and is fed by drainage from the surrounding hills and plateaus and from several inlet streams.”

Hamburger Stand for Sale
Everything is hazy due to wildfires in the mountains. Stehekin area. Smoke across the landscape in Eastern Washington. Reardan WA, population 600 in 2000 census. On the way from the Spokane Airport with my sister, driving a rental to our brother’s in Okanogan. Long day of travel. Wheat fields on either side of the 2 lane road. Grain elevators in the background. It’s almost a 3 hour drive from the airport to his place near the Columbia River.

Art Car #2 by Greg Phelps
Another Art Car spotted in Columbus OH at the Touch-a-Truck Day. Artist wearing blue shirt in vertical photo. This is his ONLY car. He glues the items on with silicone glue. He donated his Art Car #1 to Kentucky Museum of Art & Craft. Check out more photos at his site. Saw my first Art Car on July 4th. Let me know when you spot one where you live.
Touch-a-Truck Day, Westerville, OH
Michael, Anna and Jack learn how to ride a city bus.
Touch-a-Truck Day in Westerville Ohio -Tow truck,news van, fire & rescue, police car, farm machinery, helicopter, animal control van, big diggers, school bus and a giant truck cab. Kids and babies in strollers, parents carrying and corralling them, wait in line for a turn- vehicle to vehicle. Each sat in the driver’s seat, held the wheel, while honking the horn. A bus driver distributing transfers and the children were given How to Ride a COTA (Central Ohio Transit Authority) Bus coloring/activity bookS, a package of crayons, in the plastic bags. I sat across from them as they listened, Jack holding his transfer. Thought this scene called for conversion to black and white.
