Oops, I missed a week!
I like this photo so much, you needed a week off to precover (pre-recover, get it) for this dose of cuteness. This is my favorite of the set I think.
Check out the photographer’s other work on his facebook page..
Today brings the second photo in the two month series of photos taken by http://www.isiahxiong.com/ Photography studio on location at my house.
Eric and I took some video of actual blacksmithing work with his flip video camera. Some pretty cool stuff.
Today I started my hand at blacksmithing. A friend came over and we pretended we knew what we where doing. It was an absolute blast!
We used up two 10 lbs bags of charcoal, and made a railroad spike knife, a bit of a trivet, and some coat hooks. I only got burned maybe 3-4 times and only have one bad blister raised on the back of my hand at the moment.
The forge is made out of an old burnt out gas grill that I lined with some bricks. I used a leaf blower as the forge blower. The anvil is some random scrap of busted up metal casting that we made a post for. The anvil could be a good bit better, but it worked well enough for our first attempt.
We even cooked our steak lunch on the forge fire – I figured it was already lit and hot, so why not!.
Starting today, every week for 2 months, I shall post a photo of Bella. Why? Because Thursdays are good, and so are these photos!
This photo was taking by a friend of mine, Isiah. You can see his work on his facebook page.
