Second time blog

I typed up this post on Sunday morning and then my PC crashed and I lost it all so here goes again.   I haven't posted in awhile been too busy again.

On the 20th I did a photo walk with a Val friend I met on Flickr.  We have done photo walks twice before.  Once to the hundred acres next to me, and the other time at Catalina State Park.  Both time I really enjoyed taking photos with her.  She is a retired teacher and love to take photos.  I think she has a Nikon 40. 

This time we took photos around her neighborhood.  We got an early start around 6:30 am and took the streets and walking paths around her hood.  Most of the photos I took weren't really that good but I did enjoy our walk and her company.  Here is a link to her site on Flickr.  http://www.flickr.com/photos/81022945@N00/

Last Saturday, another friend from Flickr came to visit.  She brought her family to see the horses and cocca puff.  We had a nice breakfast of a home made coffee cake that she brought and some donuts that hubby got at the store.  Here is a link to her site on Flickr.  We so enjoyed meeting Linda and her family, what great kids she has...Oh and her hubby is a doll!  Here is a link to Linda's Flickr site. http://www.flickr.com/photos/lsdinaz/.  She lives near me so our photos of sunrises and sunsets are similar.

Last weekend I broke down and bought a used laptop and it was just what I wanted.  Now tonight it is not charging.  So I'll have to contact the seller and take it in for repair.  I got it on Craigs list but it has a 30 day parts and labor guarantee.  So one step forward and two back now.

My PC is just choaking on the huge files from my camera.  I needed a faster processer and more ram.  Oh well hope it can be fixed quickly.

I spend a lot of time on Sat. looking through the photos I've taken recently.  I sure was disappointed in what I saw.  My background weren't good, subjects too much in the center of the photo.  So  yesterday I took a few photos in the morning and I was more satisfied with the results.

I got a nice photo of a lizzard that I see all the time in my backyard.  It was hot and muggy and I think this slowed the lizzard down a little as he didn't run away as I was getting closer to get my photos.

Leave me alone

Here is a photo of a cute rabbit that I caught before he hopped away.  We have cottentail rabbits all over our yard but they usually dont' stick around when we get close.

Please don't eat me

I took some photos of the quail and their babies but I didn't like any of them.  Maybe next weekend I can get some good photos of the quail.

Hope you have a great week!
