for those of you who don't know me, scott is my big brother. he was married to holly last weekend. the week before his wedding, we drove up to a lake in rural iowa for an extended bachelor party. unlike the traditional bach party, we spent our time biking, shooting each other with paintball guns, watching mission impossible, braveheart, bourne supremacy, and of course, making fire. this is the firepit where we were last thursday night for a ceremony of last rites. (reflections on scott)
is this picture not hot?
here is myself with scott just before we "ran the gauntlet". the game was this: two of us had to ride bikes down the road while being ambushed by two gunmen in the woods, one at ground level and one in the "snipers nest" above. it was a total rush.
here is the crew at scotts bach party, minus matthew who was driving in that night.

These pics remind me of some I've seen from S. IL in 2003 that also involved wild men, weapons and fire... :-)
I've read through the ENTIRE blog this evening (while feeding new baby Samuel) and I really love seeing your photography and catching up on your life over the past year. It's like having a nice chat with you here in our living room.
We think of you often and will begin checking out the blog for more frequent updates.

hey Mark!
Thanks for your comments... yes wild and free is the way to live. But then there's life and work and all the things that hold us down too... but there's quite a lot of beauty in it all too.
I'm really enjoying your latest photos of family and life. keep up the good work!!
Right now I'm in the middle of tallying up students interested in summer trips, there are quite a lot!! This summer is going to be an adventure for sure!
these pictures make me wish i was a bro.
