Day 229

A couple more from Dad’s 90th Birthday!  He jumped out a perfectly (well…) good airplane, AGAIN!  Here he is after, with Pastor Daniel, who I think was also going to jump… This is Mariah, another of Dad’s Granddaughters (the first!) in the purple outfit.  She jumped, too.  I think one of Doug’s daughters was also […]

The Dailylife Daughter #1 and Toots dragged me out to see the Perseid Meteor Shower last night.  It was a bust photographing the meteors, although we did see a few!  This animation shows something else, however: 1) you really need to pre-focus your lens!; and 2) a satellite!  That is the streak moving across the star […]

The Photography Exhibition at the Montana State Fair is next door to the Flower Exhibition.  Since they have a really small room, they share space with us when they are accepting flowers to be exhibited.
