Photographic Miscellany

I offer here two sets (of many) in my Flickr stream, which is overstuffed with things I couldn't resist photographing:

• Images taken at the Grotto of the Redemption in West Bend, IA, one of the more amazing roadside wonders in the midwest.
• Photos from a friend's album release show at a neat little local venue in Cherokee, IA; I'm not in any of the pictures, but I was also there to play (I recorded some vocals and violins for the album).
