I've been tagged and Ice Bucket challenged all in the same week. So why not kill 2 birds with one stone? Here's a few things you should know about me:
1.In the words of the Heidelberg Catechism: "I am not my own, but belong body and soul, in life and in death to my faithful Savior, Jesus Christ."
2. I am blessed to be married for 10 years. Each year is better than the last.
3. I have 3 kids, 2 boys and 1 girl, and a 4th on the way, due next month.
4. I have the most awesome job in the world: I am a Youth Pastor in the Presbyterian Church in America. This picture is taken at our church with a few members of our Youth Group.
5. I am OLD. I am 34 years old and I've discovered these gray things coming out of my head. However, I don't think I've ever really grown up. I spend my time playing with my kids, hanging out with students, and building castles.
6. I've been building with Lego since I was about 5 years old. My best childhood memories were with King's Castle 6080 and Black Falcon's Fortress 6074.
7. Castle has always been my favorite theme, and probably always will be. Pirates are fun too, but Castle will always be the best.
8. I live in Amish Country, Pennsylvania, USA. Don't believe what you see in Amish Mafia and the other TV shows. Amish people are more normal than most people think. The other day I saw a bunch of Amish teenagers in a buggy with ground effect neon lights and loud dance music coming out of it. They went past our house at about 1 in the morning.
9. My biggest literary influences (other than the Bible) are: C. S. Lewis, G. K. (Gilbert Keith) Chesterton, and Tim Keller. And probably Tolkien too.
10. I really like spicy food. Mexican, Chinese, and Thai would be my favorites.

Holes in Buckets and Barrels
Traditionalists say
Barrels are more important than buckets
Post industrial versions of fig leaves
Hiding nakedness
Like graffiti on a wall or train
Modern version of pictographs
Telling the story of our culture
Non-traditionalists say
A bucket or a barrel
Or a womb or a coffin
Are all the same when we walk
into the dark of the unknown
Naked like the day we squeal hello
And the day we groan good bye
Each side passes judgment
Forever dancing with each other
Forever afraid the other has the lead
But the unknown haunts each coming step
And Gepetto is in the music
Standing on a barrel
Keeping the beat on a bucket
While our footprints become graffiti
Painting the darkness as it unravels around us
Famous quotes that should have been overheard about buckets:
“Something’s wrong with the moral fabric of the world when people wear buckets on their heads instead of barrels over their bodies.” Pat Roberts
“Buckets – building sand castles and protecting heads since 1899.” – Sears catalog 1954
“Who needs thumbs when you have a bucket on your head.” – Walt Disney
“We were too poor to afford a real dunce hat so my younger brother had to wear a bucket.” – Pisbury Dough-Boy
“Helmet technology has come a long way since I was a kid.” – Evil Kenevil
“A spatula and a bucket is all you need for a good time.” – Ron Jeremy
Volunteers form a bucket brigade to move bags more efficiently across the beach. Heavy lifting!
As part of the larger Hurricane Sandy resilience Project "Gandy's Beach shoreline protection", the Service partnered with The Nature Conservancy and Project PORTS to engage several thousand students to build 15,000 shell bags. The bags will be placed offshore at Gandy's Beach to become a living oyster reef, part of the 4,000 feet of living shoreline and breakwater to restore 337 acres of salt marsh and adjacent uplands. This project will substantially improve the ability of the site to withstand storm surges and coastal erosion.

Splash! It wasn't the hottest of summer days, but Ivy and Rose decided it would be fun to play with the bucket and get a little wet.
Bucket O' FriesWhile at the Roscoe Village Burger Fest in Chicago's Roscoe Village Neighborhood, my wife pointed out the Bucket O' Fries. I feel a lot better about making the photo than eating the contents.
Walking down Mott St. in Chinatown, NY
I bump into this bucket of frogs
Live frogs, hanging out
chillin...
waiting to be picked up
with the silvery tongs, then transferred into a plastic bag...

Grosmont is one of the stations on the North York Moors railway. These fire buckets are on the station platform.
I like the striking colours and simple repetition of the three buckets.
These buckets must be kept full of water and used only in case of fire.. BY ORDER.
Three fire buckets or convenient ashtrays and rubbish bins depending on your point of view seen at Sheringham Station on the heritage North Norfolk Railway in the County of Norfolk (UK).

Expired Fuji Velvia 100F slide film, cross processed in Tetenal C41 chemistry. The cross-processing leaves a green cast on the film, which after scanning and converting to a positive image, gives a red/mauve cast.
This bucket was made in Brazil by Novarte, of injected Polystyrene. It is lined with mirrored glass.
It is 22,5 cm high.
After dealing with Cancer and being in remission for a year now my wife told me to start working on my "Bucket List". Items checked off so far have been another cruise to Alaska with a Panama Canal Cruise for next fall already booked. I also wanted to visit Jackson Hole Wyoming to capture my first Moose. That was a successful trip to say the least. Yellowstone National Park is always on my list so that was also part of the Jackson Hole trip and another success with a bonus of photographing my first Great Grey Owls. God willing, I will have time to work on more of my list in the future.

I (reluctantly) accepted Jeremiah’s ALS Ice Bucket Challenge and nominate my friends Matt, Klara, and their son Mason to participate and raise awareness for ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease.
I made this following the excellent tutorial at thestitchinchicken.com/2009/06/13/tutorial-fabric-bucketb...
It's just big enough for a couple stacks of tea bag envelopes.
