Osama is Dead
Where were you when the world stopped turning on that September day?
Were you in the yard with your wife and children
Or working on some stage in L.A.?
Did you stand there in shock at the sight of that black smoke
Risin' against that blue sky?
Did you shout out in anger, in fear for your neighbor
Or did you just sit down and cry?
Did you weep for the children who lost their dear loved ones

They have been playing and jamming for 50 years and if you book them to do a gig for you, all of their proceeds go to charities: Shriners, WEAVE, Mustard Seed and Make a Wish.
Their Banjos were beautiful, some so ornate they seemed like jewelry!

A little experimental photography. After a lovely dinner last night out at the Ranch, this little vignette seemed to be asking to have its picture taken. There are several images, but this one was most enchantining. The glass of Port seems to be holding just a little fire within.
I didn't drink the Port......a guest did, but I did enjoy her amber glow.
Happy Monday!

There's something about San Francisco that sings to me. The minute I see the famous skyline my heart just swells. Every time I go into the City I wish I was brave enough to move there. I envy anyone who does.
I went over with an old friend I rediscovered on FB and we had an excellent day. Shortly after we arrived the sun came out and burned off almost all of the fog and we had a fabulous timeShannonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03714821939521493044noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5055759325075209704.post-57118432868325296892010-08-09T21:18:00.000-07:002010-08-09T21:28:29.096-07:00A little digital imaging action at the RiverI find that I have been spending a lot of time at home, because there is no money to 'go out', I find that if I leave the house, for some reason or another, I spend money.....so, no leaving the house. However, yesterday the cabin fever won out and I had to get out of the house for a couple of hours, plus I was jonesing for a little digital imaging action. I headed out to a little town in the Shannonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03714821939521493044noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5055759325075209704.post-40468619749172267422010-08-05T22:52:00.000-07:002010-08-05T23:11:40.343-07:00Shifting focus
I have been taking pictures since I was in 3rd grade.....how old are you when you are in third grade, like, eight? I got my first Kodak instamatic 126 camera for a birthday or Christmas present and I still have the photos I took of my friend Susan hanging on the jungle gym in the playground at school. I also have multiple 30 gallon rubbermaid tubs in storage with countless photos stashed Shannonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03714821939521493044noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5055759325075209704.post-81028522409734776112010-07-29T13:26:00.000-07:002010-07-29T13:26:16.421-07:00A New Beginning ♥I have been pondering a new blog for awhile and finally was inspired enough to open a new one.
