At The Canal Street Diner in Bolivar, Ohio, U.S.A. A very nice place for a good breakfast!

First Photo With My New Camera

I decided it was time to take the first photo with my new camera, the Sony Alpha 6000. Of course if you read yesterday’s post you would already know that I had a new camera! 🙂 I haven’t found the setting yet for Raw format, etc. and this was taken on the Auto setting. It also shows the place I like to be on stormy, snowy days like we had last weekend! Nothing quite like a choice of two rocking chairs in front of a warm fire!

My sister and niece having a blast. The niece has only seen snow on TV!! And she used the technique she saw used on shows to make snowmen, and tried it out. The snow wasn’t really the best quality, but it kind of worked! It is also one of the first photos I have taken with my new camera, the Sony Alpha 6000

Let it Snow

My mother is now near us in Ohio, and hasn’t seen snow for 35 years. I hung a plaque on her door the other day, which said, “Let it Snow!” Very soon outside her window there were big flakes of snow!! The next day it dumped down some more snow! If anyone wants me to hang such a plaque on their door, just let me know! 🙂 Have a great weekend, one and all, with or without snow!

A Furry Distraction

Is Spring Here?

I saw a flash of orange, and sure enough, there were two robins in my back yard on January 6!!

Wedding Cake

A beautiful unique wedding cake. This was for the bridal table. The rest of the guests had a choice of many cheesecakes for their desserts.

One of many cheesecakes available at a beautiful wedding we attended last weekend!

Bridal Table Arrangement

The bride, a good friend of ours, arranged this plate for me to photograph it! It was a lovely wedding!

Stay Warm

We spent a lot of time in front of this fire the last 6 days! Thanks, Marvin for stoking the fires!
