Two weekends in one post

I think my family has a problem with cell phone usage. Here is mom, Meg and Christopher not working. See everything in there? We had to move that down from the second floor in his old place and then up four flights of steps to his new place. Yea, fun...that's what I did on Saturday. But we made the most of it (and it really didn't take long) by finishing up with a few good beers and a slice of mud pie in downtown Sac.
Christophers retro kitchen. Very cute. l

Here is our neighb's muskrat and another attempt to play with photos. Aug 2, 2009.
RED NECK RIVER BOAT!! Here I am floating/beached in the river. Some people were at our usual spot (see the pool and person behind me- that's our spot) so I had to be satisfied with the next pool down. Yes, second class. But on a good note they left shortly after this picture and we got to move up in the big pond.



Red neck Summer Fun

At the beach with Dad


Heres my Dad.

Jane enjoying some beach time.


Cody after a run through the dunes.

Dad and Me




See the difference?? Thanks Aimee Fredy!

A good friend of mine has introduced me to the world of photography and photo editing. I'm at the stage of what can be defined as "infintile," in the whole touching up photos but I don't think I did too bad of job for my first time. But you'd be amazed at the time that goes into just one photo. But what a great new hobby. Yeaaa! I'm so excited.
Ok, this is two different photos as you can see dog on left, dog on right. But I played with the color and warmed the photo up a little.


Ok, this one turned out a little bright. Or as I like to think of it, "Sunny" on a sureal day.

Ok, I lied. It wasn't so sunny. But do you see the difference. Oh this is so much fun

Shhh- don't tell the tourist!

Sunday afternoon at the river

The secret water hole for us locals.

Icky wriggly things. This little snake was only about a foot long. Any longer and I would have been screaming and running on water.

A swimming river Cody.

Matt enjoying the hot summer day.
Here's Jane, all cooled off and wore out.

Some more photos from Saturday

A gang of bikers.
Pat just had to be different.

Going up the road.
It looks big but...
It's not!
This little bit was made to fold up and put in your small Japanese car, drive to the city limits, pull over, pull this out and off you go into the city.

Riding on a lazy afternoon

The Harley and the VStar.
Hi Cicil and the Shadow... knows!!

I'm getting into action photography (ha ha). I took this while riding down the road.
Here we are...going nowhere fast.

Matt's hog before the VStar upgrade. Let me tell you, riding on the back really sucks!
