Hot Potato!

By James Braswell | Published November 12, 2013

(This post originally published in January 2010). Thinking of once again having lots of Bald Eagles to photograph (Missouri gets a lot of them that follow the duck/goose migration via the Mississippi flyway), I thought of this awesome experience I had a few years ago in Clarksville, Missouri. So I decided to find this post […]

Good At What They Do

By James Braswell | Published October 27, 2013

Mom’s Gonna Teach Us How to Catch Fish ‘n’ Frogs ‘n’ Stuff! (Re-post from 2010)

By James Braswell | Published October 6, 2012

(This post originally published in June, 2010) Yesterday’s kayak outing was fantastic! It all started with the drive out to the launch area … we had a “cold” front move through on Sunday and this resulted not only in a grand sunset on Sunday, but the sunrise on Monday was also quite spectacular!
