MIDLIFE CRI$I$


Vero Beach, FL- November, 2010

Nice looking, right? What with the recent addition wood finish for the dashboard the photographer's "new" classic 1978 MGB is likely to turn some heads at this Saturday's "Wheels Across the Pond" car show in Jupiter, Florida. Unfortunately, an untimely clutch replacement is threatening to keep this beauty out of Saturday's pageant. Update$ to follow.


Ironic, isn't it, that once the photographer started saving money by going digital, $omething $pecial came along.

Sometimes you feel like a nut; sometimes you don't

This feels like some sort of cyber April Fool's prank. On the last blog I used photobucket to edit those Florida Key pictures, and I posted them. So I thought. Or did I? When I checked this morning from work there were no pictures, just a photo bucket icon. So tonight I decided to get acquainted with my new HP all in one printer/scanner/copier and reupload said pictures


only to find that when I checked the blog from home magically the pictures were right where I left them yesterday afternoon. No photobucket icon.



So I don't know who is seeing what but I am happy with the ease of this new all in one, my trusty HP Photosmart which incidentally took two hours and Chris from the Philippines to download onto my desktop.

Big Pine Key, FL- February, 2009

The Barnacle Bed and Breakfast is one of those out of the way places with nice accommodations and even nicer food. I'm not sure the proprietors were happy with the owner on this one but the whole operation (except for the food and the prices) appeared to be out of the psychedelic seventies. The owner didn't want to put any money into it, the proprietors wanted to buy it but didn't want to pay the price unless the owner upgraded. Bed and Breakfast drama but great bold colors nonetheless.
