this is the color

Pretty color, Crissa, very close to what we have. Good to get the painting done before the floors go down, this I know all too well.

Yesterday was one of those classic spring days here, it was 70 degrees and just perfect for working outside.
Sunny was a happy girl, knee deep in tall pasture grass and loving every minute of it.

Gravenstein Apple Blossoms are just now opening.

Love spring. Very nice, Tim.

Morning.
So far it's a nice day here. Partly sunny/highs near 54. I was so happy to see blue sky that I opened up the house to give it a spring airing. Tis a bi cold now.

Crissa, nice flooring and cute baby photo.
Tim, I love the signs of spring...nice photos.
Becky, LOL!! I've never had a clock (except the computers) that changed time on it's own.

I've done that myself, Permie, fresh smelling house that is very cold.

As for the clock, never dawned on me why when the price was marked down so. I bought it after they announced the new dates for the time changes.:o:o


Our interviews went fine. Not what either of us expected. We both thought we were going to interviewed by an outside party, turned out to be the top 4 people on the entire team. Great chance to square away some particular needs we will have. Also they are thrilled we are bringing our own printer. Last year they had to make a nightly trip to WallyWorld for prints then come back and sort them out, etc. Also, the photographer last year is a Apple person and the equipment at the camp is PC, she had to learn all the software and different command keys. By bringing our own laptop, we'll have that problem nipped also. Plus we are PC folk.

4 hours late and everyone seems to be enjoying their day.

Hey.....what....who's making all that noise. I was napping in the back booth, you know.

I haven't been able to play any FB games in days...boo!

Nice sharing of videos and slide shows. Enjoyed them all.

ZANE for what is worth, I always wait a day or two before working on shots from a shoot. Gives me enough detachment to not think every shot sucks. We are our own worse critics, so trust us when we tell you we are looking forward to seeing your shots we enjoy your work and I'm sure the racers are glad you "bother".

Thank you Becky

House Update:

We bought the flooring and went with bamboo! We are putting it down ourselves but it won't be delivered until Tuesday and we've gotta give it a few days in the house to acclimate. It isn't the usual very light color, we went witha darker stain...I'll try to find a picture from the website of the place we got it.

Today we are painting ceilings and removing baseboards and painting closets.

Woot!

He does have some good shots, but really need to do at least some cropping. Lots of the action shots in there have heads cut half off, stuff I would not even use, but I guess if he is selling them you never know what will be bought. All in all, your shots are much superior to his. You action shots are many times better, and you have great people shots too, and have a much better eye for the ladies.

Thank you Jim and LOL!! We need to start a guys lounge and share pictures

I forgot what you said you did about weight management. Is she on that pasture 24/7? Our guys are pasture boarded in a nice field and we struggle with their weight if we don't work them a lot.
