2003 New York Times Photo Contest

February 7, 2023By Maverickdasphoto

Eventually I will stumble upon the polaroid photos that I took as a child, at the Pioneer Farm Museum.  I remember the old rusty sawblade mounted on the wall, I was so intrigued that I needed a photo of it.  From the start of my photography career in my days of youth, I didn’t take … Read More

Story Time

February 7, 2023By Maverickdasphoto

Its been years since I’ve updated this site. A month or so ago I decided that I wanted to share my old photos, to start drumming up attention for my photography again.  I spent weeks rattling ideas around in my head, as to the best way to categorize and share my work.  What I am … Read More

like whoa….  I wanted to up the timeline a little bit.  I chose this extremely rapid pace.  March 1st will be here before I know it. Things have been lining up very well for me.  I have a Porsche project that I need to finish for Dan.  He is cleaning out garage space for me … Read More

Bidding War

February 15, 2019By MaverickHouse

I am typing this post Feb 15th 12:26 am.  A home buyer and his associate just left.  Last week I signed the paperwork to sell my house, and I started a bidding war between 2 different home buyers.  I did not know these guys were so serious about real estate.  I just did the paperwork … Read More

Where will I live?

February 14, 2019By MaverickHouse

I had a slow start this morning.  I woke up way too early, finally fell back asleep and didn’t eat breakfast until around 9am.  After a couple of pancakes, I checked out Mule Expedition Outfitters in Issaquah, WA.  If my house sells next month, I am going to need a place to sleep.  I am … Read More

Change is a coming

February 13, 2019By MaverickHouse

also, change can be very profitable.  I have been collecting change for my entire life.  I remember kids throwing change at me in junior high, and collecting it.  The kids finally quit throwing change at me once they realized that I was making between $3 and $5 per day. Whenever money gets tight, I would … Read More

A weekend adventuring

February 12, 2019By Maverickdasphoto

I thought I would start things off with a photo of myself doing the Ricky Bobby, aka, I don’t know what to do with my hands…. We spent some time exploring Bellevue downtown park.  I have never been to NYC, but based on images alone, Bellevue park felt a lot like Central park to me.  … Read More

A slow day

February 8, 2019By MaverickHouse

I had a slow start today, I don’t feel like I accomplished that much.  I went to Costco midday and purchased some plastic bins, some water, a full tank for the truck + 5 gallons just in case, and lunch.  So many people were complaining about the lines in stores today, I apparently got lucky.  … Read More

Where do I begin

February 7, 2019By MaverickHouse

Many people tell me that the stories I tell, that the life I live, the places I go, the things I do, are fascinating to hear about. I have been trying, unsuccessfully I would say, for many years to find my niche. I don’t feel like I have figured out how to convey my emotions, … Read More

A New Direction

November 7, 2018By Maverickdasphoto

I finally have my cell phone back.  My cell phone is my mobile hotspot so that I have the necessary internet connection to bring you these blog posts. I did a lot of reflecting in my absence. The best version of myself for this website is the guy who shares stories and photos from events, … Read More
