Since my 'forced' retirement on June 23rd, 2005, I'm trying to build an 'at home' business via the Internet and learning more about using my digital camera, eh!! The picture is of ME & Kathy, my wife who's one bad ass Quilter!! We will be adding some of her handiwork too. I'd love to hear from computer & graphics people so I can learn more and we'd both love to hear from Quilters too!!

Car Show On The Green!!










Hi Everyone,

Kathy and I went to the Car Show on Saturday and I got 193 shots!! But by making a lot of panoramas and cutting out some shots, my slide show only has 103 pictures. And I hope you enjoy them all. Why, because the show has always been held at our local Park with lots of shade & places for Kathy to set and relax while I'm wandering all around getting my shots. They even have a hard service road that circles around the park area, so when we've used the wheel chair it's easier on both of us.

This year the car show was held at the Golf Course, which had NO seating of any kind, had a LOT LESS shade and had NOTHING but grass, if we'd been using her wheel chair. So I'm not sure what will happen next year, or even if it will be held at the Golf Course. Kathy got so tired from walking just 20-30 minutes, that I had to walk her back to the Restaurant so she could get cooled down, sip some tea and she got a salad to kill as much time as possible. That gave me enough time to almost run thru all the cars to get my shots and looking at them while editing them I see that I missed quite a few that I personally wanted some good single shots of.

But, at least next year we can take her wheel chair, if only so she will have a nice comfortable place to set, eh!! I sent an email to the Weaver City Car Club asking them about these changes and how we didn't like it, but they haven't responded at yet.

Later, 'Viper'
