Cooler Crew Pictures

LeSueur County in mid 80's - none of my moon shots made it into the fair - my landscape photos were a helluva lot better

I went to State a couple of times for Model Airplanes / Rocketry - got to stay in the 4-H "Hilton" at the fair for three straight days. I don't think we had hot water EVER in that ancient dormitory. I think they've remodeled since then, but I haven't been in there for decades...

hmmm...

I knew a family from New Prague...

Larson's I think...

Amy and Tom where the kids...but they also had a ton of foster brothers and sisters as well...

We probably played against them in 4-H softball. We were the team of nothing but 8&9 year olds - and my 15 year old tired arm stuck in Center field. (had to back up EVERYONE)

WOOT! thats awesome

cool find OT!

Nice pics KC and CM.

I saw this fire on the way into work on Wednesday only to find out that there was another one going on about a mile away in DT by the dome. Damn. 2 old buildings gone in one afternoon.

If you look close you can see a couple of people walking down below the bridge where it's usually under 20' under water.

Only a couple?

I'd bring a whole bag full...

I must be recovering from this cold ok, cuz I've got bottle #3 (beer) with my dinner and not an IV bag!

thanks for posting this

I need to make it a point to get down there this week

cool

Why?

The lowering of the water level was for only 2 hours

Didn't know where to post this...jokes, news or pictures.

So here it is.

Here's a couple of nice photos seen on the news tonight. Great smiles guys!

Those are really nice CM. Thanks for posting them.

YW

I've added a couple of pictures from last nights AW Hunt kickoff here

Working on finishing off a thousand cranes by the end of the month for a birthday gift to a friend (they like japanese things, and I thought it'd be nice to do for them). So I thought I'd take a photo of how they come together, fold by fold.

So far I got 150 done... as you can see by the paper in the box, I have a long way to go.....

What a wonderful and thoughtful gift!

Playing around last night. I was able to get the laser beam to show up in the dark. I still need to get out in an open field to see exactly how far away I can reach with it. Can't wait for a foggy night!!!

It worked fairly well with a gallon jug of water, lit the whole thing up. Then we have a chandelier in the house that was just a natural thing to try....

And of course I had to try this...

:cool: :cool: :cool:

I'd get a blue laser, but they're cost prohibitive yet....

Hey - what happend to Orange ??

well his name is KC0GReeN

HEH looks like by double pumping the cavitiy you may be successful with the generation of orange lased light...

Summary: We have developed diode pumped solid state orange (593 nm) laser by use of intracavity sum frequency mixing for Nd:YVO/sub 4/ dual pumping dual cavity (1342 nm and 1064 nm). The maximum orange power was 1.29 W at 30 W pumping. IEEE site

Playin' with your LASER

you know, they don't make lasers in orange... closest is yellow-orange in the 593.5 nm wavelength, but I haven't seen any for sale...

I stand corrected. I guess they do have them, but at 299 bucks for a 2mW... ouch!

HOLY KC!

that is a cool photo of the progression

can I play with your laser? heh

really though that is cool!!!

40below with the wife and kids:



:smile:

Cute! Did you get that done at the MOA?

thats great! even the sad faces as if you had to live in those conditions. but dressed pretty ritzy so you probably made more $$ back then than you do today. heh - adorable girls

I found this going through pictures for the wedding website. I had to share it, because I think it's a really cool picture of my dad and his cat, napping.

He must have owned the cat for awhile as they tend to look alike :smile:

The cat's whiskers are a little longer, but you're right. :wink:

They do look alike! Cool pic

we got that particular picture taken at Abe's in Wisconsin Dells... The gloominess is because it's supposed to be on the Titanic... lol

At least we don't have to hunt in conditions like this :grin:

Eh. Put on some golf spikes, that's not so bad.

hehe... care for a cruise?

I was gonna post pictures similar to that a while back and keep forgetting. Got them in an email.
