57:365 BloNo FCA Banquet

I had the opportunity to shoot at the BloNo FCA Banquet at the Marriott in Uptown Normal today... It was a very successful event. I thoroughly enjoyed the chance to participate. What an awesome organization.

This Old House

Below are pictures of a house that I drive by, walk by, and run by daily...

I LOVE this old house.

It's vacant... Has been for years. We've been in our house for 10-1/2 years and I don't think anyone has lived in it during that time.

I'd love to see the inside of it, and would REALLY love to be able to use it for some photo shoots... but, after meeting the owner for the first time today... I'm not seeing that as a possibility.

It makes me sad to see this old house... This beautiful, historic, stately, old house... Empty, lifeless, and forgotten.

17:365 Thief In The Night

17:365 Thief In The Night, originally uploaded by Mark Sexton Photography.

We woke up this morning to discover my daughter had 60 boxes of Girl Scout cookies stolen out of our van last night... Needless to say our daughter Savannah was heartbroken. Her troop is one of only 2-3 in Central Illinois that had the opportunity to direct sell cookies while all other troops can ONLY take orders for delivery in March (the common way Girl Scout cookies are sold). We're hopeful that somehow the greedy dirtbag that steals from Girl Scouts will be caught... Or maybe chokes to death on a Thin Mint!!! If you live in Bloomington/Normal and someone suspicious is selling Girl Scout cookies... Please contact the Bloomington Police Department ASAP.
