2012-06-08 – What a day!
The day didn’t start out so well. I got up at 06:00 to get ready for a video shoot with a model. She was supposed to arrive at 08:00. When nine o’clock rolled around and there was not sign of her, I tried calling her but got no answer. I had to assume she was … Continue reading
Great day for mud fun
When I got up this morning, I wasn’t sure if it would be warm enough for mudding by the time the tide went out. I tackled some heavy yard work after lunch. When it came time to get ready to pack for the swamp, I was overheating, and I was ready for a cool dip … Continue reading
Outtakes
The weather has been cool and cloudy here for over a week, now. Fortunately, I have lots of mud video to edit. Today, I spent some time putting together the out-takes from the April 27 clips. I tried to keep them short, so I could offer the clip for free, but I’m still not sure … Continue reading
April 27 clip (1 of 2)
The first of 2 clips from April 27 is now available for sale in my Clips4Sale store. This is the first of two clips we shot that day. The wind noise in the audio is ugly, but otherwise, it’s a very high quality clip. The clip opens when I take a running leap into the … Continue reading
More Swamp Bondage
I went back to the swamp on Sunday, May 13. I returned to the site of my May 5 mud play. This time, however, I took the lead weight and my breathing tube. I had a plan to sink in a ball tie, with the help of the heavy weight, pulling me down by my … Continue reading
April 17 weighted sink clip is now available
The weighted sink clip is now available in my clips4sale store. The weighted sink was the last thing I did on April 17. I was already covered in mud, from head to toe when the camera started rolling. I had located a small pool of thick mud that was very deep, and I decided it … Continue reading
Clip release schedule
The first of my backlog of clips has been added to my clips4sale store. The Weighted Sink clip from April 17 will be available on Friday night, and I’m editing three more clips from April 27 and May 6. Those aren’t ready, so they don’t have definite release dates. Thank you all, for your interest … Continue reading
Swamping, April 27
What a trip! The wind was blowing out of the north this morning, which is very unusual this time of year. We had a cold front coming in, but it was still quite warm and sunny. So, with the wind blowing the water out of the estuary, I had an exceptionally low tide that lasted … Continue reading
Unconventional mud, 2011-10-23
I went out mudding on Sunday, October 23. It was hard to get away. I’ve been working 7 days a week, lately. I actually had to slip out between tasks. I was lucky I could time my trip with low tide. The tide wasn’t really low, but it was low enough to expose some thick, … Continue reading
Swamping on Sept 3, 2011
Today was my first trip out into my swamp since the hurricane. I didn’t notice any major relandscaping since the storm. The tides are not very low this time of year, and today was no exception. I still took advantage of the low tide and enjoyed some deep, inviting swamp mud. I shot video, but … Continue reading
Mudding on July 23
If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. The last time I went out at low tide, there was no low tide. Yesterday, there was a very good low tide. The tides are not the most predictable thing, but I am not disappointed too often. So, if you’ve been keeping up, you remember that, … Continue reading
Swamping on June 25, 2011
Heather and I went out kayaking today and the tide was unusually low, so we visited one of my deepest and most treacherous mud holes. It was difficult getting there. I pulled Heather in her boat behind me in the deep mud, and I fought off vicious, determined crabs. It was like running a gauntlet. … Continue reading
