We arrived back home this afternoon from our 25th wedding anniversary trip to San Francisco.  I'm very tired. We had a wonderful time.  More details later.  I wasn't going to look through the photos I took since I was so tired.  But that didn't last long.  I have to go to work early tomorrow so I really need to stop.  I haven't even finished ( Read more... )

Last weekend Bob, Tim and I went camping at Timothy Lake at the base of Mt Hood.   It was fun!   I took a lot of photos of Tim on the the lake (Tim on Timothy Lake, ha!)  And I set up on the shore just before sunset to capture Mt Hood & the lake during the sunset.   There was another photographer who had the same thought so we were both armed with ( Read more... )

I had so much fun yesterday.   I'm reading the book "Quiet," which if you are an introvert you must read.   As I was reading I caught up on about 90% of our laundry.  Whew, am so glad that is almost done.

Then from about 1pm to 3am (yes 14 hours) I went through my backlog of photos and worked on some of them.   It was so much fun that I stayed up ( Read more... )

Too busy to re-type/re-summarize, so I'm just copying what I posted on FB:

SO DAMN BUSY. *deep breath* Here's a cute fan-folksong/vid about Game of Thrones. Found it linked somewhere [missyjack] last night and it gave me a nice moment of "oh hell yeah" with chuckles.

Stayed with Mom again last night. She is doing SO much better, but will ( Read more... )

Been VERY busy.   Almost through all the graduation events.   Mom is recovering from her fall.  The family is taking shifts on a 24x7 schedule to stay with her while she is healing.

Emily's college graduation is later today.   Can't believe both our kids have graduated.   *beams*

I have a photography class coming up next Mon-Weds.  Looking forward to ( Read more... )

Thanks to everyone who voted for Tim's film, Time Chaser, in the International Youth Silent Film Festival!    We won't know the results of the viewer voting until June 7th.

Tim's film did not win the judging contest unfortunately.  There were a LOT of really good films.  I was very impressed.  It was so cool to see Tim's film on a big screen and ( Read more... )

 I never post anymore.  I know, I suck.

Love the news about an extra SPN episode!  \O/

Also I just got my repaired Canon 40D back!  My Jenny!   So Jenny joins my new 7D camera.  Which today I decided to call Sammy.  :-)

We just got back from a 3 day weekend in Central Oregon.  Took some photos of a beautiful lake we went kayaking on Saturday.  ( ( Read more... )
