Random Pics on my Phone

Mrs. Wright and I went to look at a church today for the wedding. I forgot my Canon camera so I was stuck taking photos with my phone. While retrieving those photos, I came across some other photos of interest from here and there.

This first one was taken at a restaurant in downtown Boston. A group of us had walked there after seeing some movie at the Boston Common Theater. Susan Burger and I decided to play "Throw the onion ring around the ketchup bottle," a classic children's game. By the end, we decided to decorate it for our waitress--she was not so impressed.


This next one is amazing. While driving my old car from Kansas to Boston, I stopped for a couple of nights in my old hometown, Walton, NY. I stayed at the parsonage, my old house. Brad Johnson, the current pastor, gave me a tour of the place. Much had changed. But one thing hadn't--recognize that material around the beam? That's the stuff boys (or Justin Finley boys) are made of--duct tape. It has remained intact from when our basketball hoop used to be there 15 years ago! I was astounded. The memories flooded back when I saw that. I was giddy.


I intentionally planned to stay in Walton over the Sabbath so I could go to church there. I took the chance to take a picture of the stained glass window where my dad's pastorate in Walton is remembered.


Ahhhhh! Actually, it's alright. This was Thanksgiving 2007 at the Howes' in Providence and Daniel was letting us shoot his air pistol at paper targets in his basement. Turns out the Wright women are better shots than the men. Mrs. Wright is shooting while Daniel (in the midst of his Hispanic phase) looked on, as many a fine Kansas newspaper would say.


Faith's kindergarten graduation!


So, there you have it. A random collection of events in my life over the past year-and-a-half captured on a camera phone. Toodles!
