Week 27

This week, surprisingly, for the first time there was a vehicle in the front drive.  The fire marshal likes to sweep in and ticket cars parked there.  It is a popular place to park while people run in to do something.  If you do that it is best to keep someone in the car.  Then it is "standing" rather than "parked."   Also, there were some people out working in the front lawn.  One more week of classes, one week of finals then graduation.  Everyone is ready.  The great thing about college is the distinct beginnings and endings.  Love it.

Week 26

Since there are 52 weeks in a year this is the halfway point.  A pretty big milestone.  I have been doing this now for six months having started in October of 2009.

The first week with the new Camera.  I am using a Canon SX 120 which is my backup pocket camera.  It is for when I do not want to carry the Nikon DSLRs.  So far it is a a great camera.  I like the intermediate size but wish it had a range finder and not just the back display.  Camera manufacturers are getting lazy.  Or maybe just cheap?

Here is the picture of the week.

Week 25

The camera I have been using for this project is going to have to be replaced.  The lens covering is not opening regularly, and sometimes has to be "helped."  The problem is getting worse.  So, I am going to have to replace it.  Luckily, when I purchased this camera I also purchased the insurance so replacement is a pretty easy process.  Unfortunately, the camera I want is only available online so I am going to have to send this current one in and then wait for the replacement from WalMart.  So it goes.

It still takes good pictures.  Another beautiful spring day for Week 25.  What is interesting is the progression you see in the grass over the past four to five weeks from that dull winter stunted look to the lush green we have today.  Again, I am astonished at how the scenery does not change gradually but rather in dramatic short periods of three to four weeks.  What will happen as the weather warms and the rain slows down?

Week 24

Spring break at last, and it is starting to show in the pictures.  The grass is VERY green.  We have had so much rain, but despite that the days have mostly been pleasant.
