Having Some Fun With A Tennis Ball

Forgetting he is 11 years old now, playing with a tennis ball like a puppy again!

St. Edwards (July 2010)

Gloomy day, but that has been be case for the last five July 4ths that I remember. Sort of bummed out that I won’t be able to do a nice hike this weekend but not surprised. Hiking season doesn’t seem to start in earnest until mid to late July. So a nice local fall back trail is St. Edwards.




It is nice for the wonder dog because the mid point of the trail is Lake Washington. As you can see, he had a bit of trouble getting out of the lake where he went in.

Centennial Trail Shots With The New Camera

The sun was supposed to be out by 9am but it took until 1pm. I didn't have faith today and didn't go hiking. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. I did decide to go into town to deposit some checks and we did a quick little walk on Centennial Trail. Wanted to try some test shots with the new camera.


At first, they wouldn't load to the web site and then I noticed the resolution was way too high! The pictures were 4 - 5 MB a piece. I'll have to adjust the way I save and store these images.



Here is a test of a pretty tight zoom.

Pretty nice overall but I'll have to spend some time getting used to some of the differences!
