I’ve been juggling a lot of balls this year, and just as I began to feel like I was up on things and can add a couple of more (ones that I take pleasure in), I go and drop a couple.  Thank goodness they weren’t eggs.  So this morning, when I read something while eating breakfast, I decided there’s something I can do for pleasure, and get it done in one quick swoop.  So . . . .

It was Father’s Day last weekend and Devon came down to celebrate it with us.  When they asked me what I wanted to do to celebrate I came up with an innovative idea - let’s print some images!  In part because Devon deserved to not return to Seattle empty handed, and in part because Ann has been working on some images from our trip last fall in anticipation for our trip this fall.  And given that my desk computer was in the shop, it was an all-Ann printing session!

It’s been too long since I’ve posted, in part because we haven’t been on any real adventures, though it’s not for lack of wanting.  Life, it seems, wants to take all of our time this year and . . . to put it bluntly, life is succeeding.  Not all of it has been burdensome.  We recently visited Dad and family in Arizona, which was a relaxing break from way too busy work schedules.  Only for me to return to a hard drive that was dropping sectors and is now in the shop.  That has thrown a wrench not only into my work life, but my photography life - I can’t even work on images, or print, or . . . .  Two weekends ago Ann was working on images from our trip last year and it gave me an idea, why not write about our planning?  There’s a lot of it!
