Superman in St. Louis





Can't take credit for this picture of Clark Kent / Superman.  It was actually taken by a friend, from Church, John Shryock.

World Vision: Japan Quake and Tsunami Relief

St. Louis St. Patrick's Day Parade

St Patrick's Day Parade in St. Louis, Mo



Model T Ford Club



Irish Pageant Queen


What lawn mowers have to do with St. Patrick I haven't figured out.  But these guys were in the parade.



The USO


These Guys are sitting in motorized movie theater chairs.


These are some of the pictures I took at the parade.  They were all taken with a Minolta Maxxum 3XI  35mm film camera, equipped with a 35-80 auto focus, zoom lens.  The film is Fuji 800 speed film.

My Minolta Auto-Focus Camera





The picture above (top) of my neighbor's door was taken in the evening.  As you can see by the "decorations" these pictures were taken back in October. (I'm back logged on film developing)   The picture below it of the skeleton positioned in front of the Overland, Mo Fire Department, was taken at night.

This picture has nothing to do with Halloween, but it's one of my favorite places to eat.  They've got super chicken wings.  Their buffet prices are reasonable.  It's a family oriented restaurant (as far as I know they don't serve alcohol).  And, the owners are some of the nicest people you'll ever meet.  If you're ever in the Overland Missouri area, you'll want to stop by the "CHINA FUN BUFFET" restaurant, located at the corner of Woodson and Midland roads.  


All of the pictures posted here were taken using Fuji 35mm film.  The film speed is 800.  And the camera used was a Minolta Freedom 70 EX with auto focus.
