3 Hours of the KYMN Morning show in :36 seconds

Posted on May 29, 2011

I’m testing out some new equipment utilizing a time-lapse feature. I shot a photo every 20 seconds and then put them together using 15 images for every second. I was filling in for Jeff Johnson during the morning show last week. A few things to note. Watch as the guests pop in and out of the studio and keep an eye on the clock. Watch the minute hand cruise!

I share my June 1st birthday with a lifelong friend, Chris Blomberg

Posted on May 28, 2011

My next door neighbor growing up in Northfield was Chris Blomberg.  He and I share June 1st as our birthday.  This week he turns 36 and I turn 38.

We always had a ton of fun with this similarity, including some grand parties when we lived together as room mates in Minneapolis (94-98).  We have always made efforts to get together or do something special together on this special day that we share.  Chris is a one-of-a-kind friend whom loves everything and dis-likes little.  I admire him for that.  He is a great joy to have in my life.

Happy birthday Chris!

RIP Harmon Killebrew – He connected me to my favorite team and favorite number

Posted on May 20, 2011

I never saw Harmon play in person, but as a life long die-hard Twins fan, you certainly know all about him. In particular, from a young age, I knew that he was something way more than an incredible baseball legend.  He was almost more known for being a humble and kind human being to others. This is rare, especially now-a-days.

Grandma Esta Freeland-Cox; The gift of quilt

Posted on May 20, 2011

My Grandma Esta Freeland-Cox has spent many many hours with a quilting needle in her hands during her 96 years.  It’s been a source of entertainment, socialization and crafting for years.  When I was very young Grandma Esta told me that I’d receive a hand made quilt some day when I graduated from high school.  She simply asked me what color I wanted.  Under pressure and completely unaware of the longevity of this decision, I said “yellow” for some reason.  I hated yellow then, and still do today.  BUT…when I graduated from Northfield High School in 1991, there was my quilt on the gift table, sealed for freshness in a plastic covering.  Each of her grandchildren received a hand sewn quilt at graduation as their gift.  There were five of us.  Mine was yellow.
