Thursday, July 14


Hanging out in the back yard. Notice the ruddy cheeks in the foreground and the brown grass in the background. The drought continues! Fortunately, with new water restrictions, we are no longer the scourge of the neighborhood for refusing to water the lawn 24/7 (after needing CPR after opening the last water bill). Still, some renegades on the street can be seen in the stealth of night dragging out the water hoses. It makes one keenly aware of the sense of hearing when out running after dark, as an unexpected drenching has been known to occur when jogging along the sidewalk near certain homes with the strange good fortune of having a luscious lawn while much of suburbia grows increasingly desert-like.

For my photography-savvy friends (and the few souls who took my digital photography class at FCC last year) I apologize for the geekish date stamp on the corner, which is obviously inaccurate, as we are not Aussies.

I'm sure you can turn off that datestamp if you can find your camera manual! Nice shots though.

Nice pictures. I like the "geeky" datestamp on the photos. It makes them look like the snapshots they are. What is FCC?

Thanks!
FCC=First Christian Church, Ashland. They allowed me to unleash my public relations/marketing genius on them last year. Okay, I have to tell the truth: they helped me channel my wild ideas into something creative and constructive (most days)! Great group of people. Love them dearly.

I'll try to come up with less geeky photos in the near future.

Hey Beth, good to see you. I actually saw your post on one of Rick Lee's blog photos. I've started one, too, but don't update as often as Rick does. So, how's things going, and how's Mike doing?
