are you hungry yet?...

Craig's dessert...he brought it to me so I would blog it...
I think he will have his own blog before the summer is over...
he told me today he is getting into taking the photos for it...
blogmania...
it happens...

my camera...

I have had several people ask me what kind of camera I use...
well, here it is...
nothing fancy or expensive...
and it's old...
I got it about 9-10 years ago...
online from circuit city...
$179.00...
they were higher back then...
I love it...
I needed one to sell on eBay...
my kids have theirs and I have tried them...
more pixels...
but the higher the pixels the more steady you have to be...
this one I can point and click one handed...
under things...above things...
the zoom is not good on this...
but I will be so sad when it goes down...
lighting and perspective are the key...
not the camera...
play around...
you know when things look better...
and one of the best times is right after a rain...
colors are more intense wet...

more from today...

sugar maples...
bean greens...in another month...we'll be cooking...
another buy from Rebecca...got 2 of them...
the hydrangea and giant ferns...
a sign I painted last winter...just found it...
well, at least it's out there before Halloween...
have a very good evening...
Rebecca is watching Alice In Wonderland tonight and we should have it tomorrow...
then I will do the review...

My son...Doug...





he is signing...
"finished"...
I thought it would be cute to get one of his senior photos with him signing...
and we were trying to find one word to describe the end of high school...
we were all thinking and the photographer was so good about it...
this is another great find from the weekend...
here you go, Doug...
save them to your pc so you will have them...
he looks a lot like my dad...
my dad has a lot of Cherokee in him...
dad and I are members of the same tribe...
dad is an elder...
we need to get my boys in soon, too...
just haven't had the time...

my dad...

many years ago...
one of the many things I found cleaning last weekend...

it's been a long 14 hours plus without blogging...

a bird's nest...in one of the walnut trees...
Craig found this this spring...he said the tag said it would attract butterflies...
Daphne always wants to see what you are doing...
Craig took some wonderful photos this morning...his flower bed is looking better all the time...he's been pulling weeds by the tons out of here...
can you see her now?...
blogger is having issues...beginning last night...couldn't blog at all...
then just tried to revert back to the old post settings...
I had upgraded and have been using a new one which I love...
but right now isn't working...
from what I have seen...they have changed the layout button to design...
and it looks like that program is going to be so much better than the old one...
if they can get the bugs worked out...
when that happens...look for some really cool and unique blog backgrounds and layouts...
so if you're able to read my blog and can't get nothing to post on yours...
go into settings and choose the older post editor...
good luck...
