Just another ambiguous small town on the Western Slope, there are only three reasons for a passer-though to stop: Food, gas, or possibly some crystal meth. When I saw this lot full of rusted out vintage cars, I realized that there is an unsung fourth reason to stop. A tilt shift madness photos shoot!

The boys are really into Legos. Grammy still has my old Legos from when I was a kid!

I put about 3 hours into this first one! It’s got tons of firepower, and will blow away any other ship in Upper Black Eddy.

I built this first ship for Travis. The next morning I got to the house and first thing Evi asks me, “Uncle Steve, can you build a ship for me today?” It was so adorable! :>)

So I didn’t have quite as many good pieces on this one so I had to get creative. It has retractable landing gear, and the man in the back has a rotating turret station. What this ship lacks in pure trust, it compensates with light weight and maneuverability. Travis was convinced that Evi got the better ship.

Last Saturday was a Big Night! Rob and Sarah were back in town from Bend, Oregon for Rob’s birthday, Stout Month, and the Sideburn and Mullet to win some pork chops contest at the Mountain Sun. Is that a run on sentence, or just a case of too much action for one sentence?

Things started normally enough when everyone started congregating in late afternoon. But as the hours wore on, it was easy to see that some unconventional grooming was descending on the pub.



As if the mullets, sideburns, and lots of bad clothing weren’t enough, in comes the The King, carried through the front door on his thrown and preceded by a Bagpiper. I’m not sure what he was the king of, or what the bagpiper was for, but it was quite the spectacle.

Robbie “the Saber-tooth” and Scott “the Wolverine” kicked off a fine round of skinny-man’s arm wrestling. Its wasn’t long before the mullitia got into the act.


We wrapped up the night by setting a tab record for the crew at the Sun. Ouch. At least everybody who was there for the whole night was there to pay. Um. Right. Yeah, you know who you are!

I posted the full gallery of photos on my Facebook page, so click the link in the menu to go to my page.
