Yesterday I had to go to Modesto then on to Porterville. So of course I had to stop by one of my favorite places Bravo Farms in Traver. The food is okay but I go for the animals.

Since both Alex & Aleki are here now, we decided to do a sushi dinner at Angel Fish tonight.





I bought a Bokeh Masters Kit with the intention of creating a snail mail Christmas card. Well of course I waited too long, but it did give me a chance to experiment with it.



Anyway, Merry Christmas.
It just arrived today… battery is charging now. Gotta wait.


…and all I got was a nightshot from my hotel room.

Actually I found a few more…



Tonight the sun was especially spectacular.

Tonight we were invited next door for dinner at Paul & Brenda’s. Dinner was excellent but Sandy fell in love with Murphy. If Judy only knew…


Just received my 1st Eye-Fi card. This SD card not only stores 8GB of photos but it simultaneously transmits the photos to my wireless network. While this is a great concept, I’m finding that it takes quite a while to upload a 12MP RAW file. I can also upload to Facebook. This would be much better than the horrible cell phone photos that are so prolific on FB. I would have to shoot a smaller jpg file though.

I believe in being a consumer, after all its what keeps this economy rolling. As such that means I get my share of catalogs. This is especially true during the holiday season. While watching the news tonight there was a PSA for catalogchoice.org, which is a opt-out catalog service. I quickly ran upstairs and gathered all my catalogs and entered them individually into the database. I soon hope there will be more trees. But that means more squirrels! I can’t win.

Every first Sunday of the month, general admission to the Oakland Museum is free, so we thought we would take this opportunity to check it out. We only viewed 1 of the 3 levels. We are saving the rest for when our visitors show up.
