As you all probably know my fellow geeks and I had a little competition over the weekend.  Well, I was less than inspired when we went downtown with the crappy weather, few shops open and just plain dreariness of it all.  Out of the 170 pictures I took I found only 2,  yes I said it only 2 that were worth keeping on my hard drive.  The others found their way to the “recycling bin”.  I shall not tell you the picture I chose for the competition (that would be cheating) but I will share the other choice with you.

As of 2:17am this morning I now have a new cousin.  After cooing at him and sniffing his wonderful new baby smell (better than a new car smell!) I took some shots.  This one really interested me because I thought how new life resembles old life.  Kim probably has a picture somewhere of some old hands that would be a great juxtaposition to this one.

We were not able to get out the other day shooting while the light was good, so I was only able to shoot the trees in front of the house of one of the other fotogeeks.

Not much to say here, looked great standing there, not so much in the photo.

My friend’s boys were staying at my house for a couple of days and we decided to take advantage of the decent weather today and go outside to build a snow fort and snowmen.  After a week of snowstorms and freezing rain the boys had slight cabin fever, to say the least!  Here we have Justin dedicated to the job of making the perfect snowman head and Dylan who is an imp eating the carrot he stole from Justin’s first snowman.   I didn’t get any pictures of the fight that broke out once Justin discovered the nose had gone missing and Dylan’s orange smile.  I was too busy playing referee.  Once peace was restored and we had completed our tasks we went inside for chocolate milk and animal crackers.  The great thing about having friends with kids is that you can love’m and spoil’m and then give them back.

We shot the hell outta those lobster traps. The cliffs, not so much.
