Shots of Lake Mills and the Coming Storms

I created a couple graphs on how the Brewers are doing run-wise compared to last year and used a 10 game moving average. Here are the results.

The first is Runs scored per game. Blue is last years 10 game moving average and red this this years!

And pitching.

Ouch. Need I say more.

WOW - just saw Ted Nugent on a TV interview. WOW - that dude needs so serious medication! He just WENT OFF on a female producer off camera for no reason at all.

One thing that sort of irritates me a little (I think I have mentioned this once to thrice) is that people seem to believe that since I "retired" I sit around all day. Heck I thought that also when I was working for the man and would talk to retired friends.

I spend the good part of yesterday matting prints and stressing out over art fairs and what needs to be done. From 9:00 to 2:30 I was heads down matting. OH - granted, I take breaks and it's not like I'm sitting at a desk all day coding. About 2:30 the storms were rolling south so I hopped into the car and drove to Lake Mills who are always screaming MORE MORE WE NEED MORE PHOTOGRAPHS OF LAKE MILLS!

So with storms and clouds I took a drive. Now THIS is what being "retired" is all about. It's not that I'm not working, but I work at what I want to work at.

Here are the few I have gotten too so far.

Rock Lake Mill Pond - Lake Mills

There was a storm rolling in over the Lake. For any photographers out there this was one of those times where you are all set up, take some photos and then a minute later . . NOW is a good shot . . and then a minute later now is a better shot and it keeps going, you never know if THIS ONE is the good one? That on? Should I wait?
