Tight Rope, Shelley and Found Memories

 When I was at the park the

for Brian's celebration I saw

this guy walking a tight rope.

He had the rope hung between 

two large trees and it was about 

10 inches off the ground. 

He did great.

This is a B&W shot of

Shelley. She is a 1928 oil truck.  

Sandee over at 

https://comedy-plus.com/

questioned me on my blog 

about Brian and someone

criticizing the fact that there 

was a balloon release on FB.

 Yes, someone did just that. 

I do understand

 there is an issue with balloons 

in the enivornment

 but criticizing on a photo posted 

on my page

 for that event was uncalled 

for. Others from 

that  event might have read 

that and family 

members hurt by it. I hide 

the remark. I have

yet to say anything to her 

but she will be 

given one more chance, 

then I will delete

her as a friend. 

I found some more 

"found memories".....

The below pics were taken back

in Dec of 2004. The Commissioner 

of the Department I worked for was

having her Christmas party and 

she was wanting pics of all

in the department for the 

Christmas tree.

 

The photographers set up 

the camera, and set the timer

for the pics.

This is Jed and I.

Phil was setting up camera so Jed

and I was just waiting.

I have no clue why

I was cutting my eyes. 

HAHA....boy that mirror

looks rouch from behind. 

And that is a can of glass

cleaner Jed is using for

hair spray. 

Phil made it in this shot.

I was trying to not laugh

in the pic above.

The pic above was a good 

one but we switched it

up and used the one below.

Like is stated glass cleaner

for hair spray and a

makeup brush that is used

for cleaning dust off camera

lens, and the silver thing

Phil is holding is some type

of film holder.

We also did some serious ones.

I really don't even remember

posing for the pics below.

We had just gotten our

photo printing machine

and I think these pics were taken

to go in our newsletter. 

If you notice there 

is a big red name on 

the front of the printer...

DAWN.

Cute story goes with that...

Phil is from Michigan, I 

have a very southern accent.

Our trianers name was 

DON

but when I said it with my

southern twang, Phil said

I said it like 

DAWN.

That is how the printer 

got her name. 

I worked in Photo Services

for four years, leaving in 

2008. Of course I went

back as a contract worker

in March of 2019.

Its been fun finding things

as I cleaned out files.

The state of Tn actually

makes us keep paper files

for 7 yrs. However, I was 

clearing out stuff that went

way back. Even further then

my spell there.

Photo Services is a unit that

was started 40 years ago.

With that, the department is

having a coffee table book

printed for our 40th yr. 

There have been about 

15 photographers in that 

time so Theresa (my boss)

has been pulling slides for

the book. Trying to add at

least two from each 

photographer. Also, in the

book she is including group

pics. That is the reason why

I was looking for that 

said pic for the book. 

It was fun locating these

pics and seeing them again

and also realizing that the

QUEEN

still lives in Photo Serv.

haha

Hoping you enjoyed

the look into my

past life at

Photo Serv.
