General mudding
Something Different
It was pretty warm and partly sunny, yesterday. I had recorded 4″ of rain in the past 3 days, so the swamp was surely flooded. I had been experimenting with some bondage and I wanted to try some crazy predicament stuff over the mud pit for a more grungy and raw look. The image on … Continue reading
New Stuck Clip
It’s not my usual clip, but it has some selling points. For one thing, the mud I get stuck in looks exactly like the ground around it. It gives no indication of the danger lurking there. Also, thanks to my boots, I actually did get stuck, and most of the struggle is genuine. There is … Continue reading
New Denim Shorts
I went for a paddle, yesterday, and I took my recently acquired denim shorts. Those of you who follow me on deviantArt may have seen a high resolution photo of me, wearing these shorts. I love the way they look on me. So, yesterday the tide didn’t get very low on the creek, but I … Continue reading
Gentle Mudding
Well, it was my idea of gentle mudding, but I might have gotten a little carried away. My knee improved a lot overnight, so I decided I’d go for a paddle and check out the low tide. I arrived at the water while the tide was still going out, and hadn’t yet gotten low enough … Continue reading
Storm Surge & Flood Waters
The high water persists, and the mercury is dropping. Starting Tuesday, it’s supposed to clear up and maybe we’ll get a week of dry weather. The way it’s been, I’m not holding my breath. I went out on the creek on Friday at low tide, and the water was easily 24 centimeters higher than it … Continue reading
Sunshine
The sun came out today for the first time in a week. Sadly, the forecast is for rain the rest of the week. With the higher than usual tides caused by the closer than usual moon, and all the rain we’ve been having, I’m afraid it will be at least two more weeks before I’ll … Continue reading
It was an adventure
I have some regrets, but I got a moderate low tide and no rain. I think the tide was assisted by a wind out of the northwest. I wish I had left earlier. When I arrived at the creek, the tide was already pretty low, so I lost about 40 minutes of play time to … Continue reading
Rain!
This picture is the epitome of the past few weeks, for me. If we’re not getting a deluge that floods the creek for days, we’re getting showers almost daily that make shooting nearly impossible. Apparently, the moon is not passing directly overhead, so our tides are just lame. I haven’t actually looked at the moon, … Continue reading
A Long Dry Spell
The last time I got out to the swamp, it was August 14 and we had gotten 1.8″ (4.5 cm) of rain the day before. I was so excited about getting out to the swamp, I didn’t even consider the previous day’s rainfall, which I had recorded on my calendar just 12 hours before. I … Continue reading
