Camping: Connoisseur Only Different

Ok. So I would definitely recommend this wine- it's organic, it's Chilean... it's all good.

I also like it's name: Cono Sur. Like "connoisseur" only different and easier to spell. Get it? I did, which might have been part of the reason I bought the bottle in the first place.

But the real reason I am posting this photo is that I am so excited that my camera can do the whole "blurry in the background, focused in the front" thing. That is some fun stuff. I have a (grabbing a camera and copying, copying) Canon Digital IXUS 850IS. Yup. Turns out the IXUS can do the blurry thang.

Camping: Mickey Crashing Out I

I think this photo very nicely captures our camping experience. It was lazy. It was sunny. And sometimes after all the water and hotdogs and laughing and sunscreen the only thing to do was crash out on the floor.

I love summer.

Stay tuned for more "Mickey Crashing Out" pics...

Going, Going... Gone

I was in Berkeley, CA last week for a few days. Here is a pretty picture from my window seat on the plane.


Right after I took this shot the kindly man sitting next to me said, "Uh. Do you have enough elbow room?" He may have said this because in order to get the angle just right I had to half sit on his lap, I shoved my elbow in his ear and I made him hold my grande, non-fat, decaf latte. For about 10 minutes. I assured him that I did indeed have enough elbow room but I would love a little bag of peanuts. I don't think he got my joke.

I didn't get home until about 11pm and 11pm is approximately 1/2 hour after the dogs' bed time. They were very,very tired. Here is Mickey going...

Going...
Gone.
And apparently Kayloo was doing a bit of drinking with the pig. I told John pigs were a bad influence.

Monkey

You can tell just looking at him that he's a cheeky monkey, can't you? I'm sure right before this he hung out on the couch chowing down on my dinner and shortly after he went and peed on the floor. And then proceeded to bark for a half hour.
