A picture from our lanai - from the vantage point of a 3'6", 5 year-old boy
On Saturday, November 3, Noah woke up earlier than I thought, and an artistic impulse drove him to take some pictures with Mom's camera. At least he told me later that morning that he had taken some pictures of his journal, otherwise I probably wouldn't have found out until we did a slide show on our flat-screen when company was over. I can just imagine it now..."And these pictures are of, um, well...who took these pictures?"
After he told me what he did, I turned on the camera to verify what he said. Afterall, I didn't even know he knew how to turn it on, let alone how to take pictures. Sure enough, our budding Ansel Adams had managed to snap 31 pictures within the distance of eight feet from it's original resting place, the desk.
So today's blog is in honor of our future photographer (shh...don't tell him, but I think Santa may be getting him his own camera for Christmas!). May he look back at this when he's 15 and laugh.

Isn't a messy desk the sign of a genius?

Hey Brenda,
Finally got around to checking out your blog, and LOVE IT. Sounds like your first few months have been packed full of lessons about your new.... house, city, state, island, the people, food (spam & rice in particular), freeways, weather, chickens, pumpkins, and the ill effects of excessive humidity. AND it looks like you're having fun in the process!! I must say, too, that you have a knack for colorful writing! I can see it all!!! As for the "pickup truck family lounges", this is a practice also popular in New Mexico near the Navajo Res, so I can relate to the odd views!
Thanks to Tom for for sharing with us here at the "OLD place", it's good to hear from you. Any chance you're planning to see the football connection on Friday with Idaho and Hawaii?? Here's hoping you'll be cheering for Boise!! I'll keep checking back for more updates. They're fun!! Take care,
Val
