Beach Duck

We have quite a few ducks wandering around. One guy was even standing inside the roped off "protected area" for the nesting terns and skimmers. Smart, lol.

Courtesy Vehicle

Yikes.........my Volvo had to go in for its "big" 60,000 mile service and I knew it would have a big price tag attached. Yeah, *gulp* like $1300!!!!! Was to be *only* $800, but I needed rear brake pads, too......so there came another $400 plus change. At least I had a nice "borrowed" car to tool around town in..............

Incoming Storm

One of the cool things about living by the water is the amazing views we get as a storm approaches. The gulf here is so light since it was still receiving sun......but what a contrast with the darkened sky. I'll have to learn about the proper exposure for this........

Sure Sign of Summer Vacation

Yep, can't get my son off his laptop!! Fortunately, he has several camps coming up so he will have to give the computer a break.

The Three Stooges

This is my favorite photo - the boys crammed themselves into the cubbies on the last day of school. This photo is also in my final portfolio for my Portraiture 101 class. One class member summed up this photo perfectly in our forum - "boys dressed up doing something unexpected."
