With summer moving closer and closer to the end I figured it was time to put together a picture video of June and July’s photos. In this episode we visit the Grand Rapids Art Museum during Festival of the Arts for some silly hat making. Founders Brewing Company was a blast with some big band music. We also had another visit to the Grand Rapids Children’s Museum and Camp Concordia. Take a look and enjoy.

The Heart of Summer via Animoto

This video is viewable on it’s animoto page for browsers that do not support flash. All of my photos can be viewed on flickr; videos are on animoto and YouTube.

May has finished and now it’s time to put together the monthly slide show of pictures. May even has a couple of videos thrown in there for good measure.

Our May was filled with visiting Great Grandma and Grandpa Holzhausen, the beach at Millennium Park, camping with Grandma and Grandpa Klein, and Drake running around with my camera. I’ll let you guess which photos are his.

All of my past Animoto videos can be found on my Videos page, or on my YouTube channel. One thing that does bother me about Animoto is that there is no public page that displays all of my creations.

I have a flickr album that has over 1,000 photos of Drake. Every now and again I like to flip through some of the older ones and remind myself of when he used to fit on my chest while sleeping.

I also put together two short shows of our trip to the John Ball Zoo and the Grand Rapids Children’s Museum.


I am very excited for Art Prize. Living in the downtown area is going to be great come September. A free random art show around the city. Not too bad that the winner pulls down $250,000.

This movie is right up my alley but I didn’t know Echelon Conspiracy even existed until I saw it attached to an article about the phone in my RSS feeds.
