New Toy!

Clicken to embiggen the pictures. The kids wanted to get me a DSLR camera for Christmas but I confessed to them that I have one and lugging the lenses and changing them constantly limits its use. But, I found a camera-a Sony, that has an actual mechanical shutter and some terrific features. They generously splurged for me. It was waiting in Deerfield and it was killing me. Unbeknownst to me Lori had sprained her ankle Friday night. But she was some better by yesterday and I took them lunch. We all played with the camera. Jason thinks it might cost him twice as much as anticipated because Lori might need one. It is a great camera. It takes panorama shots and hand-held twilight shots as well as hardly a bad one in the bunch. I am thrilled with it. The top picture is a 240 degree panorama from the point on their property. I have often wished for such a feature in Wyoming where the vistas are so magnificent- a chunk out of the middle doesn't do it justice.

My beautiful grand-dog Juneau resting after hard play with Honey. Below is Buster the wonder dog-still kicking. A cold front came through so we snuggled all night long last night. I loved it.

The potluck was postponed until tonight due to a deluge. If it doesn't happen tonight I will skip it due to the ptomaine factor. In this climate, next day food is usually safe but three days???
