Hump Day February 22, 2012

A Blog about Life, Travel & Photography.

Happy "Hump Day" everyone.  It is a bright sunny day in Minnesota today.  It makes me long for Spring but it is only a tease.  Snow is predicted for tomorrow and Sunday.

 

I am always amazed when people drive their cars on the lake when they are warned not to.  We lived on a lake for 12 years and every year several vehicles ended up at the bottom of lake.  Here is an article about what happens after your vehicle goes for a swim:

My Dad is getting a little better each day.  He still has a drainage tube in his head but we hope that will come out today.  He is a little slow to answer questions but his memory is good.  He may go home tomorrow if all goes well.  He is enjoying his many visitors.  Our family chipped in and bought him a Kindle so he can watch his favorite movies and play games.  Thank you to all of your prayers.  I know that helped get him through his Brain Surgery.

I have been reminding you to practice your Photography each day.  It gets hard to think of something to take a picture of.  The link below gives some ideas for creating Still Lifes.  I want to try this one if I ever have some extra time.  Enjoy:

Apple Vacations just came out with a 72 Hour Sale so if you planning vacation this would be worth checking out.  It ends February 23rd.   For more information call me at 612-490-0359 or email me tvlgoddess@npgcable.com.

Another good deal that just came out is from Royal Caribbean Cruises.  They are running a promotion that gives you Free Air from selectivie cities for their European Cruises.  The closest to us is Chicago.  Airfare is really high right now so this is a very good deal.  There are some restrictions of course.   

Our featured Photographer today is Elizabeth Casey of Day By Day Photography.  Here is a link to her website:
