Finally found it! A picture from 1983.

I've been looking for a copy of one of my photos for quite some time and I finally found it. Good thing too because the lack of a job and the weather has me depressed. I'm outta gas.

I took this photo in the early-summer of 1983 in Iowa City, IA of the Astro's Little League Baseball Team. I've always loved little league, ever since I played the game which was shortly after they invented the stick (bat).

I'm going to try and follow one team thru their 2010 season and shoot it as a photo-essay. I'll publish some of the results here, most of it on www.parsonsphotos.com and hopefully turn it into a blurb.com book. Most of the pictures will be in black and white.

Little Boo came out to the airport with me today to check on the painting Glenn had done on the Cub's tail yesterday and to see what he was working on. The wing she's looking at in the bottom wing on the Standard. The tape marks broken ribs which Glenn is replacing.

The Boo got a new outfit from her Grandmother today. It's her favorite color so she had to try it on immediately. It cracks me up, sometimes she's rough and tough and the next minute she's so girly.

02-23 Singing with the Boo.

We were singing Beatles Rock Band when the Boo came home from her dance lesson and wanted to join in the fun. My wife grabbed my small digital camera and made a video of it from which this frame is taken.

02-22 Painting the tail white.

I don't do paint. Not around the house, not model airplanes and certainly not my real airplane. I pay Glenn to paint my Cub for me. He laid down a base coat of white this morning. Tomorrow I'll go in and sand the rough spots and then he'll paint it yellow either tomorrow afternoon or wednesday.
