Today we walked in the Great Strides walk to raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation…All of my pictures today are from and in honor of the walk. We’re still accepting donations, so if you have even a spare dollar to help us find a cure, click my button over there. Even though CFF is getting closer to a cure every year, even today we had a moment of silence in honor of a 17 year old that had lost her battle with the disease just last week.

Sprinting Ahead
In my small little team, the two that were my CF babies decided to race on ahead of the rest of us…and literally ran right out of sight.

For one night we got to keep a gorgeous beauty in our garage as a favor for our neighbor. Very few cars bring to mind the famous lines from “Grease”…but this car did for me. You are supreme, the chicks’ll…

My computer went kapoot & so my blog was neglected, as was my photo editing. So this week I have a little mix of here and there things I did when w/o my computer. Celebrations, storms, and more Cheetahs…
Another Year
* Dad’s bday was a couple weeks ago. My favorite picture of him that day

Support

Storm Front
*I just loved the way the sunlight made the trees white against the dark sky.

Ray of Light

Dressed for Success

Honor Bound

Honored
*National Junior Honor Society. We are all so very proud of him!

Profiled

You look…Yummmmm….
*On this trip to the zoo, the Cheetahs were more active…walking right past the glass where we were watching. This was a fast snap I captured…but I loved the flash of tongue and the focused gaze.

The return of warm weather has given me more opportunity for pictures. Not constant, but a few good days. Angel & I got out of the house a few times this week. One of them was a long awaited trip to the zoo. I bought us a year pass a couple weeks ago and have waited for a great chance to go. So this week has many of those, and a few others that I managed to grab during the week.
Swinging

Huddle

Leap

Nice Rack

Pride

Mirrored Loungers

Wrinkled Cankles

Spike

Basking

It was also the first day of the orchid show at the Gardens attached to our zoo. I snagged a few photos on a very quick run through it during the short time we had left. I plan on returning in another week or so w/ the kids during spring break. Brandon wants to practice playing with my old camera by getting some pictures there!
Unique

Cascade of White

Tripurple

Gorgeous
I stumbled upon this at my local Half Price Books. It is special for many reasons to me…namely the condition it’s in (further explained by the next picture which shows how old it is), and the fact that the book seems like it is custom made for the main character in my novels, who would have been alive to purchase it brand new.

First Edition
Look at how gorgeous & white the paper still is. And yes, that does say 1883. I may have found a new addiction…old, gorgeous, first editions…*le sigh*.

This week I definitely have to send you to see more zoo pictures over at my flickr account. I had SUCH a hard time picking pictures this week, there are tons more over there!!

Two weeks ago I was sick. Just before I fell sick I got a new camera (the XS), giving my trusty XTi to my son. I also got a new lens (my much coveted 50mm). Right after I got sick, I fell into writing so hard that my new camera languished by the wayside. I forced myself to pick it up a couple of times this week, because I have to get used to it. My Weekly Winner selections are few b/c I am not used to either the camera or the lens, and my two mini photo-shoots didn’t give me enough practice. Hopefully soon enough I’ll be back to over-stuffing this page with pictures.

It’s only Tuesday and my week has been brutal. After not getting much sleep at all last night, dealing w/ 2 sickly folks in the house I am left with this…
