One of the guys in the circulation department at work brought in Honey and Sarah to visit. Sarah (on the right) was feature pup for January in the local Humane Society's 2011 Calendar.

The grocery store had bags of Easter pastel M&M's marked down to a buck. Come on? Like I could pass that up????

Crabby had her leg checked and emailed me her w-rays LOL. Isn't this cool, in a nerdy kinda way? Would be nice if she didn't have to be full of rods and screws, but nice that she shared since she is :-)

Some days these two are as bad as kids. This is Benson laying in Duncan's crate. They go in each other's all the time if the doors are not latched shut, seems like we're always chasing this guy out. Sheesh.

Oh, Benson, we decided to get a new kitty today....

We decided to head to the Zoo today to get out of the house and do something fun. It was a pretty nice trip, and like almost having the Zoo to ourselves, it wasn't very busy today. And we lucked out and didn't really have much rain while we were there.

And as a bonus, I am adding this one. The tiger and the baboon were my favorites of the day.

I guess it really is Spring! We went fishing for a little while, and I took the new camera I got a few weeks ago, which I ended up saying I hated within 15 minutes and threatened taking it back to the store. I ended up using the little Nikon that I keep in my purse to take this picture after the battery went dead in the other one. I think I am just spoiled with my DSLR. Perhaps I should have just kept the money I spent on the new camera and saved up for a faster lens for the D40x, in the end, I think it would have made me happier.

Every day has a happy thought, sometimes we just have to try harder to see them. And this is definitely a happy thought. Little puppies all crashed out on the floor looking cute.

The beard won! And was the topic of conversation a couple times (everyone likes it :-), and doesn't he look so nice in a suit? Though the suit has been put away, and we hope to NOT have to see it for a LONG time to come.

My hitman. I took a picture of Dave before he left for his haircut, then was going to take a new one after he got back and shaved his beard. But, he isn't sure he wants to shave it. So, I took this Mafia Mugshot instead. (I vote not to shave the beard - not everyone can grow one like he can :-)

78/365 - April 19, 2011

Benson out in the rain. He kept turning away from me as I walked around him to get a picture before I made him go in the house. I guess if he can't see me, I can't see him. I guess he needs a John Cena shirt.

More memories...

These were transplanted from pap and gram's house, to my house, to here at our house. And they are spreading.... I need to transplant more around the house :-)

There's been a lot going on this week, and neither of us were really feeling like taking pictures. But I've had some encouragement to keep going. I have a handful of people that are enjoying checking in on what I take a picture of. I guess all days can't be great, but I can find something good in each one. Some days I just have to make myself see it. These guys are always a good thing, and a happy part of the day.

75/365 - April 16, 2011

Memories of younger days... I headed out to visit with Gram at Deb's today. It's cool that the trip to Deb and Dave's place takes me past this, we use to pass this restaurant on trips to visit gram at the farm in Ohio when we were kids. It is cool that it is still there after all these years.

The Easter Bunny was here earlier, so I took the opportunity to test out the zoom on one of my cameras. Not too bad considering this guy was way over by the bird feeder on the far side of the yard.

Today was opening day for Curve baseball season. I got a few shots of the fireworks after the game.

Peeps, on a stick! Mani found these for me at Walmart. They were hard to get off the stick! I have been reading that they are good toasted like marshmallows. Maybe that's how you are suppose to get these off the stick.

Landon turned 5 on the 3rd, but everyone was working, so we had his party today. Mani did his cake, she hated it. LOL. I thought it was cute, but not her best.

The "Ravenwood Theatre". This was actually the Mishler. It was transformed into the Ravenwood for the movie premiere of "Ghosts the Musical" the movie. We got to see the play a few years ago, and were lucky enough to get to see the movie on this one night showing before it went on to the Buffalo Film Festival.

Supermoon!

Tonight's moon is a "perigee moon", one of the biggest and closest since 1993. I wasn't thinking... or I'd have seen if Dave wanted to go find a good spot to watch as it was rising. It would have looked very large then. By the time it reached over the houses across the street, it pretty much looked like a regular full moon.
