Mr. Artsy Photographer

Lately, RT has been disappearing for various lengths of time.  He will tell me that he is going to the UPS store to pick up packages (or check the UPS box) and he will be gone for hours.  The UPS store is located in our town.  Probably takes 5 minutes to get there, and there isn't a real long wait.  He then returns home like nothing happened.

His "UPS trips" are a combination trip to the UPS store and a trip to the arboretum.   At the arboretum, he drives around, sometimes stopping to take pictures.  On one visit, he jumped out of his car to get a shot and left his car in the middle of the road.  Some people were walking by, and stopped, watching him take his pictures, trying to be real quiet.  In the meantime, another car pulled up behind him.  RT was going to move his car, but, the guy said to go ahead and take his pictures.  The other driver then proceeds to look at the spot where RT was photographing.   (he was taking a picture of a stick)

We went as a family to the arboretum the other day, and he started chatting with the lady at the entrance.  I thought, great, they all know my crazy husband who drives around taking pictures of blades of grass in the breeze.  They probably have little signs out, "watch out for"  with a picture of RT.  He might even be their mascot.

So, I had to get some pictures of him on location.  I thought I would try and capture the moments on film to preserve forever, and, of course, for a good laugh.  Who knows, the arboretum might need extra pictures of their mascot.

At first I think he was taking a picture of the sign

photographing some moss

Probably pointing to the stick that he was photographing

I thought I would post a couple of his pictures, so you can see his work.  These are from this trip. 

The stick.  Cool picture.

And, the moss picture

not bad, huh?

RT was in his own little world, enjoying nature up close and personal. 

*My next post will be what was REALLY going on while we were taking our hike.
