Camping: High Falls State Park
We finally got Evie back from here week in the shop. Nothing was “wrong” with her, but there were a number of issues that needed to be dealt with, such as the non-functioning gas gauge and the windshield wiper fluid spraying off onto the car behind. Not wanting to travel too far from home, yet

I took a couple hundred photos of Gazoo today while testing out time lapse gadget. Thankfully, Gazoo does not seem to mind having her photo taken!
Gazoo in Time Lapse
I was quite surprised a few months ago when I realized that my digital SLR did not have any built-in functionality for time lapse photography. I still don’t undertand why not, but I do now have a little time lapse gadget, thanks to Rob. Today, I decided to try it out for the first time.
Photo Friday: High Falls State Park
Last weekend we headed just a little ways south of Atlanta and went camping at High Falls State Park along the Towaliga River. Though the temperatures dipped below freezing the first night, we had a wonderful spring-like Saturday exploring the park. This is an entry for Delicious Baby’s Photo Friday.

Spring … flowers!
under control
For the first time in months (or years?), I don’t have an overwhelming sense of panic. Things seem to be mostly under control. No big piles of things that need to be sorted. No to-do list that is threatening to explode. An inbox that is almost empty Slow and steady progress on longer term projects
Doing: MagiQuest
On one of our trips to Myrtle Beach, we visited the Ripley’s Aquarium at Broadway at the Beach and stumbled across MagiQuest. As my girls love fantasy, making up adventure games and Harry Potter, they were immediately intrigued. At home, they went online and learned all they could about this interactive role-playing game involving magical

Chloe had to be prodded to go up and dance at today’s concert. But once she was up there, it was impossible to get her to stop rockin’ out.
ralphheads, really
Back in 2003 when we first met Ralph, Camille was 4.5 and Chloe was 6 months old, sleeping in the sling. I had a cell phone, but it didn’t take photos and certainly not videos. I can’t remember if I had a digital camera at that point, but I still relied on my SLR film
Travel Tuesday: Weekly Highlights for 15 Mar 2011
We spent last weekend camping with “Evie” and work has been nuts, but, nevertheless, I do try to keep up with my rss subscriptions! I love what I’ve been reading out there on the web, and I’d love to share my highlights with you. Here are some of my favorites from the week: Mother of
painting – 14 mar 2011
We took advantage of the lovely spring day to work on the paintings we had been planning to paint since before Christmas!
Camping: Myrtle Beach State Park
As I mentioned in my post Photo Friday: Myrtle Beach, we spent three days camping at Myrtle Beach State Park last month. Before we headed out to pick up “Evie”, we booked a amping site via the park’s website, hoping that we’d have a nice one. Upon arrival, we registered and were given the wifi
spring is in the air!
While we were camping this weekend, the temperatures dipped below freezing one night. Long johns and warm sleeping bags kept us (well, me at least) nice and toasty! Today, the doors are opened wide to let in the sounds, smells and fresh breezes of spring! With the house as organized as it has been in

Well, we tried to get more pouches up on Camille’s Etsy site. But first the SD card broke. And then her computer got a virus. Hopefully she’ll be able to get all these pouches listed soon!!

A nice day of being outdoors at the park!

We finally managed to get everything packed up and got out the door. The park wasn’t too far away, so we had plenty of time to register and pick out a nice site along the river.
Photo Friday: Myrtle Beach
A few weeks ago we headed out to North Carolina to pick up my mid-life crisis vehicle that we had won in an eBay auction. Since we were already at the coast, we decided to give her a camping test run at Myrtle Beach State Park. Oh, how I love to be at the beach!!
chaos in the house
I thought we had packing down to a science. And I thought the work I had done to outfit Evie would make it so we could just hop in and go. But, somehow, things did not go well this morning. Three hours later and we are still not sure that we have everything ready to
dinner – 10 mar 2011
Camille made much of tonight’s dinner, which I modified from the “menu planner”. I didn’t use store-bought garlic bread but made our own. I used whole-wheat pasta and fresh broccoli. I’m finding it very easy to make the processed recipes into more wholesome … I hope I can continue to make minor adjustments….
