For those of you who’ve been waiting for me to shoot another female in the mud, your patience has paid off. Check the Damsels in Mud page for a free teaser video, or jump right over to our on-line clip store to purchase the full movie in high definition.

Heather and I had a wild time, slogging through thick mud, me with my jeans on, and her with bare legs ... being pulled along by a rope tied around her waist and through her crotch. It’s a good thing she likes that sort of abuse, or I’d probably be in deep mud right now with a very heavy weight tied to my ankles. Oh, maybe not, she knows I’d like that.

Where was I? Oh, we had a great time. I didn’t get to do any serious sinking, but I got to get pretty muddy while I was leading a half naked girl (with her hands tied) around the swamp. Finally, here is a photo Heather took of me, as I was taking my boat back into the creek and using the opportunity to rinse some of the mud out of my jeans.

Well, today was a great day for shooting video, except that it kept raining, off and on. It started raining, just as I was getting ready to go out, so I waited around for a little while and decided it was safe to venture out.

I did shoot some short video clips, stopping to pack away the camera when it would start to rain. I decided, since it was not really that warm and there was no sun, I’d shoot some video of my bare feet, for those of you who like to check out my feet.

I moved on to a swampy area and shot some video of me, pumping my legs in thick mud, but only allowing myself to sink up to my crotch. The audio in this clip is great. When it started raining again, I packed up the camera for the last time.

After I gave up on the video camera, I moved to a spot that offers more options for bondage. I played around with some ropes in some awesome mud. I wish I could have gotten some of it on camera.

I’m doing something different with today’s video. I’m going to upload the entire thing to my free movies page, and I’m going to offer the same move for sale in my clips store. So, “What’s the catch?”, you ask. The catch is simple. The free movie will be 320x180 frame size at 300kbps, whereas the store version will be 960x540 at 5000kbps. The store version is essentially 540p in very nice quality and the free version is web/preview quality. (Update: the free version has been removed as of June 7, 2010, but you may still purchase this clip)

The April 12 trip produced some very nice video. I created 2 for-sale clips, that you can find in my on-line clip store, and one free clip of outtakes that you can find here in the movie clips section. For those of you who’ve been waiting for a great mud diving clip, you really need to check out the mud diving clip from April 12. The longer clip features a slow sink and struggle, culminating in total immersion with some tight shots as I descend slowly below the surface. The mud is thick and evil. It’s fun for everyone. Muddy feet lovers will also find some good stuff in these clips. I’m always happy to get comments, so don’t be shy.

Tides are less predictable than you might think. Sure, the lunar tide follows the orbit of the moon, but the moon’s position changes over the year, and there are other factors that affect the lunar tides, like the solar tide and wind. Today, I was blessed with a very low tide. There was mud everywhere to explore. I actually had to leave before the tide came back in. It was a wonderful day to be in the tidal swamps.

I set out to record something, but I wasn’t sure what sort of mud I’d be playing in, since I selected a new spot to check out.

As luck would have it, my entire leg disappeared when I made my first, bold step into the soft mud.

You guys are going to think I do this on purpose, but I managed to get stuck in the middle of it, and there was no bottom.

I kept sinking until I drowned in the quickmud. Again ...

After drowning, I did some acrobatics. It was a great day to be a mudder. These pictures are all frames from the video I recorded. Once I get it processed, there will be some new clips for sale and for free download.

I’d like to thank everyone who has purchased one or more of my clips, recently. Your support means a lot to me. Don’t be afraid to send me your thoughts and opinions. I plan on shooting more mud video soon. The weather has been very nice, and this is a good time of year for it. Summer can be almost as bad as winter.

I’m not sure if I mentioned it before, but this year I decided to try mixing organic matter into my mudpit to make the mud less dense and heavy, thereby allowing a body to sink easier and deeper. In the photos sequence below, I’m mixing the organic matter that I collected into the mud underneath. I just happened to have my ankles tied to a stake and my wrists tied behind me, which made the mixing process more difficult.

I have more mud and organic matter to add. I should be able to bring the mud up to ground level, but I have some ideas that I wish to explore before transferring the additional mud to the pit. At the moment, it is safely stored in a 100 gallon, steel tank. Edit: I suppose it’s worth mentioning that the frames that make up the composite image above are from a video.

It wasn’t easy, but I went out on Sunday morning and enjoyed the wonderful, summer-like weather. I only got 2 hours of sleep the night before, so it was hard to resist the urge to go back to bed after returning from the airport. As it turned out, I forgot to take my tripod. That made camera placement a little difficult, but I still got some great shots.

The trip turned out to be a wallowing trip, punctuated with several inversion events.

As you can see in the photo, above, I was using a breathing hose, so I could spend a little more time upside down. Once you get this deep, the pressure pinches your nostrils shut, so the mud quits going up your nose, but that doesn’t stop the mud from going up your nose as you being your dive.

I had a lot of fun on the first, official day of mudding. The video has been uploaded to my clips4sale store. Those of you who like my bare, muddy feet might relish this rare opportunity to see me in the mud with my feet in the air, although in most of the 19 minute video, I am feet first in the mud. I’m afraid my nose can only take so much muddy water.

This has been a warm, sunny week. Spring has arrived, and it looks like we might just skip the formalities and transition right into summer. I must be up early Sunday (tomorrow) to take a friend of mine to the airport. After that, my plan is to take advantage of the morning low tide and go dive into some soft swamp mud. If any of my North Carolina fans wants to join me, I’ll be heading out by kayak around 08:00 on April 4th. The low tide should last until around 10:30, so there will be about 2 hours for mudding.

This will be my first trip of the season into the deep pudding-like mud. The weather should lend itself well to video taping, with the sun low in the sky and no chance of rain. I intend to record as much as possible. If anyone has any suggestions, keep them simple; it’s likely I’ll be out there alone.

On an unrelated note; I’ve been doing some work on the mudpit. I’ve decided to try something different. I’m collecting biomass (e.g. rotted wood pulp) to mix into the mud, in order to make it lighter and hopefully to help it retain moisture. The clay-sand mix is so heavy I can barely sink into it. By mixing in some soft decaying organic matter, maybe I’ll be able to sink more deeply when I’m struggling in the mudpit ... especially in bondage.

I’ve also revived my UMD account and put a couple of videos there for sale. It’s an experiment. So far, it looks like UMD may not be such a great place for me to sell my male mud videos. However, it might be good for female mud videos, should I make any more of those ... which could happen.

The mudding season in North Carolina starts tomorrow! I’m excited.
