Arkansas Trip: The Photos

Well I finally got around to deciding how I wanted to edit the photos from that trip a few weeks back to take my uncle home. From time to time I take photos that I just can't figure out how I want them to look. There good photos, but the right color or levels adjustment just drives me up the wall. Often it turns out they needed no adjustment, but in this case I had to go outside of my normal Idea of colors and levels. I must say I am quite happy with the end result.

Sudden Trip, Maybe Great Opportunity

Life can be quite random at times, and the best tip I can give to anyone, is find a way to take the random and often unwanted, and turn it into something you will enjoy. I am in one of those random situations; one of my uncles who at one point a few years back moved into our house for 8 months or so, mooching off us and sleeping in his 79yr old dad's bed.

He is back again, and instead of waiting for him to get money to get a bus ticket back home (map of where that is below) I am taking him home today. That is a 4 hour drive from my house, and that would mean at least 8 hours minimum to get him out of here. Am i mad? Hell no, because I am making it work to my advantage.
