I was in New York last Thursday. Two scheduled meetings turned into one meeting and a cancellation, giving me a couple of empty hours on the ground. I went to B&H Photo, over on 9th Avenue at 34th Street. I was looking for a pretty good, light-weight digital point-and-shoot. The Canon "PowerShot" S95 commended itself so I bought one. It will take the place of a big, heavy SLR when I'm more interested in snapshots than carefully composed works of art. These three were taken with the new Canon. Not bad, right? (Well, the NY skyline was taken through a plate glass window so you'll see some reflection if you look closely.)
Spring is coming to Raleigh. It seems a bit slow and fitful this year. We've had some very warm days and a lot of cool ones, too. It is always light-green this time of year; and there's a fair amount of color, too--dogwoods, redbuds and the like. In the early morning, with the low light and long shadows, our back yard is a delight.
But there is something terribly wrong! We have this nice, big yard with grass, a deck and even a playground . . . but there aren't any kids! The call goes out: Come to Raleigh to see us!

That IS a problem! We'll try to rememdy it in the next few months.
We would love to come visit. Does the invitation include Denver relatives :)
My mom will be visiting us (and new baby coming next month) in August. Can we come then??
