Tuesday Twosome
Summer Lovin'....
1. What two things are you going to miss the most about summer: The gorgeous warm evenings and the summer concerts.
2. What two things annoyed you the most about summer: We didn't have enough hot days and it ended too quickly!
3. Name two memorable moments from this past summer: FIL making it through his numerous health problems and my mom's joy at having her family together.
4. Did you go on vacation this summer and if so, where? No. I haven't really vacationed yet.
5. Who has more fun during summer: A child or an adult? And why? Probably a child, because they're still exploring things that seem new to them. They haven't lost their innocence.

Bunyan & Muffler Man
Don't ask me, I only live with my spouse who has suddenly cultivated a fascination with large statues/figures that have a cult following, replete with photos. My spouse recently gave me an assignment of utmost import: go to two locations, digital cam in hand, and capture photos of the Men.
So there I go in search of the men, relying on the vaguest description of alleged sightings. Both locations are high density and parking's at a premium. I snapped one photo of Bunyan Man (trust me, to me they look the same, however, after an extended explanation I concede, Bunyan Man is so named because of his Paul Bunyan-esque resemblance), but he came out too dark. One couldn't appreciate his beauty.
Two days later I returned to the scene of the crime - er, mini-shrine - at 6:45 a.m. to snap Bunyan Man in full sunlight. Success!, he's properly illuminated and his features can be seen and appreciated. Ugh, the things we do for love. LOL

Happy Labor day
It's a hot, relaxing day in my househould. Buddah's been lying about the house trying to stay cool and we sat outdoors for about an hour or so. That's all he could stand before coming inside and dramatically throwing himself onto the hardwood floor. Oh, such a difficult life he lives!
We awoke early this morning and drove to our favorite restaurant for breakfast. They offer a still deal on weekdays for eggs, bacon and two pancakes. After a 25 minute drive we arrived to find they weren't offering the breakfast special. What to do? We stayed and paid regular price and the breakfast was delicious!
I've been working on photos and updating the blogs. Someone inquired if it all isn't just a tad time consuming? Well, it is but enjoying the writing and photography keeps my passion high. It's not a chore, so much as a labor of love.
I was also admiring the coverage of the RNC that many New York photobloggers provided. Some were arrested as they snapped photos, others were at risk when crowd dispersal was enforced. I admire both their courage and commitment in providing us an alternate view to what conglomerate media wants us to buy into.
Thank you N.Y. Photobloggers!
