White House Squirrels

These squirrels go bonkers for all the nuts lying around. Easily lured onto your knee, as you can see. Too bad our RAZR phones weren't quicker with the video capture...Brad had one jump from the ground to his waist (while he was standing) and ran up his arm before he flicked it off! Kim had one bat a nut right out from between her fingers.

The shows Brad works on...

Brad is the US & International National Geographic Channel's series production coordinator, and these are the shows he's working on currently (for those lucky enough to get the National Geographic Channel). Some of them are still in pre-production:

Mega Structures

Wild Chronicles

Wild Spaces

Amazing Moments

Dangerous Encounters

Lockdown

Oxygen Channel Special With Lisa Ling

Undercover History (Amelia Earhart, Edgar Hoover, Adolf Hitler, Roswell Conspiracy, Romanov's, and the Boston Strangler)

All Roads Film Festival at NatGeo HQ

We volunteered for the 3rd Annual All Roads Film Festival this last Saturday (some of you may remember that Brad was one of the coordinators for the 1st one back in '04)

This guy showed us how to make obsidian arrowheads (obsidian shatters at the molecular level, which makes it one of the sharpest blades in the world...)








During a lull, we went up to the 5th floor to check out Brad's pad







For lunch we ran over to the Burger King and swung inside the Renwick Art Gallery (one of the many Smithsonian owned buildings around DC) for kicks



One of the many "Bizarre Beasts" currently on display at NG HQ

Fun at the Carraway's!

The Carraway boys (Carson & Brandon) having a little too much fun with the live lobsters flown in from Cape Cod...and David getting ready for his much deserved feast. Hannah pipes in with her quarter eyes.

Around the White House

The White House is only .6 miles from NatGeo HQ, and even less to the Metro stop we come in on everyday, so we usually take a stroll around the famous house on Pennsylvania Ave...and, there's never a dull moment outside with all the protestors.

Our personal favourite:
