Meet Nelson Holter

One of the unwritten rules of the internet is that all individuals who own a camera and a cat must most pictures of said cat online.

The Composer

Little Visitors

Somewhere, deep within the confines of my archives, is a picture of our dear friend Faith when she was about two years old.  From the time she was born she's always been one of the most vibrant, happy people we've ever known, and her family members have been very close friends seemingly forever.

Time passes, and now Faith has a beautiful two year old daughter, Sloan, and an equally energetic four month old son whose name is Finn.

They came for lunch the other day.

 

 

My Wife is Walking!

My wife, Libby, is a breast cancer survivor. Her mother, a vibrant, loving and caring woman, who died at age 42, was not so fortunate.

Libby is walking in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer this coming May to raise funds and awareness for breast cancer awareness and treatment. She successfully completed the 2001 Washington DC walk in memory of her mom.

Any support that you would care to provide will be appreciated more than I can tell you.

If you are so inclined, please visit Lib's special web page and consider making a donation in support of this cause.

She, and the 1 out of 9 women over the globe who are diagnosed with this disease thank you!

NOT Our New Pet

The infamous Eastview bear finally made it to our house the other day. I'd just gotten back from a shoot and glanced out the window only to see it chowing down on the contents of our Hummingbird feeder.

He or she would have probably hung around the rest of the day, but I had another shoot to attend, so I ultimately made noise inside the house until he headed into the woods. Prior to this, at one point he was as close as two feet to the back door.

The DNR officer I called suggested we remove our bird feeders and keep our trash cans in the garage to help ensure that our yard wouldn't be added to the bear's usual route through the neighborhood.

I like nature as much as the next guy, but I have no desire to see this, or any other bear, at my home again.

The not so great pictures were shot through a double pane window that could have stood to be cleaned, but alas, no time to do so.

Colin Makes the Evening News!

My son the composer can be seen here in a WCCO Minnesota televison news broadcast of the Spark Festival of Electronic Music and Arts. His original composition is performed at the 1:14 mark and he's seen with his laptop at 1:22.

Cool.

Brothers

...ages 24 and 17 and they're still on speaking terms; not only with each other, but with me as well!
