Oscar the Yorkshire Terrier
Wanted to share a picture of Oscar the Yorkshire Terrier, the newest member of the family. Mommy has a new baby and is very happy to hold him and give him baths.
We're still working on the house-training part.
A Walk in the Park
My family and I visit Abilene State Park a few times a year. The park is 30 miles away from our home. It is a nice break and a good place to get away and just relax.
The star of the video is our new Yorkshire Terrier. It was his first trip to a park.
I used the visit to the park to break out my Glidecam 4000 Pro. I recently purchased the Glidecam but have been so busy editing other videos that I have had only one other occasion to work with the device. The Glidecam seems to be fairly well balanced so any issues with the video are simply a lack of experience with the Glidecam. I plan to use the Glidecam for more events. I love the way it works to steady the video and I like the workout it gives me. :-)

Swim Party
We had a belated birthday party for Jason and Jon's birthdays. They invited friends over for pizza, swimming, movie watching and seeing who could stay up the latest. All the boys had a good time. Karen and I are tired this morning. All the Gibson boys fell asleep by 1:30. I made the other kids go to bet around 2:00. Here is a short video of the swimming they did earlier that evening.
Well, at least we're done with birthday parties for awhile. The next one up is my mom's, which will be low-key and during the day. Then comes mine, which will involve as little activity as possible and lots of sleep.

A Video By Josh
Josh and I spent the afternoon running around Abilene's city cemetery. I'm shooting for a video that has been commissioned by a local Abilene group. Josh brought along his own video camera, shot a video, did the edit and put it on YouTube. Here is that video.

A New Video - Mourning Dove
Mourning Doves are monogamous birds that share in the nesting process. Typically, one of the doves will sit on the nest from the morning through the afternoon. The other dove will sit on the next from the evening through the night.
We discovered this nest up in one of our trees. It took a picnic table and a ladder to get high enough to get some of the shots but it was worth it.
This story has an unfortunate ending, however. We have a cat that has a taste for all things bird. We think she got one of the doves and both eggs. The good news is that doves nest three or four times a year and often come back to the same place. Next time, I will put up some chicken-wire to keep the cat away.

A New Video - Vintage Baseball at Buffalo Gap Historic Village
Over the last two years, I've had the privilege of getting to know a bunch of guys that love history and love baseball. There's only one problem: they spell it as "base ball" with two separate words. This spelling comes from how the game was spelled and played during the 1860's and 1870's. Join me for this brief introduction to Vintage Base Ball as told by guys with names like Joel "Flaps" Brant, Bob "Bonecrusher" Wettemann, "Fossil" Joe Christensen and Warren "Spider" Simpson.

Jason on the Intramural Track Team
We went to Cooper HS the other day to watch Jason run track. Jason ran in the 440-relay (pictured), the 50-yard and 100-yard dashes. It was a special day for Jason because his Uncle Derek was in town from Houston and got to watch Jason run.
Jason ended up with two 5th place ribbons and a big bottle of Gatorade.
