Toys like computers, ipads, iphones, ipods, and fancy cameras have reeked havoc on my eyes.

I thought I had a clear defined photo of a dapper young man.

Love Knot!

Ah, young love! 

Love Knot!

Two kids, resting on a church step, oblivious to their surroundings in twisted perfection.

If I was lucky to be in their position today, I'd unfortunately need help straightening up.

An Elephant on Her Back

Hey! I'm no fashionista by any stretch of the imagination,

But,

 An Elephant on Her Back

Does 'you are what you wear' hold true in some situations?

I'm going to be more careful from now on.

Whitney

Whitney Houston.

What a fantastic voice, great look and sad life she had.

And why does the girl in the photo, think that I, with a camera, am interested in her?

Or maybe I'm misinterpreting the glare in her eyes.

Ya think?

blah, blah, blah,

I'll let him be,

Blahssez faire.

He seems to me.

Hey! I don't pretend to be Ogden Nash nor a powerhouse writer.

But, I think I'll give myself a "C" grade for rhyming and,

For you, an "A+" for not minding.

Intense Intimisi

I'm trying to determine if I should delete the blogger and use google+ or use both?


Can anyone out there give me an opinion?


I feel like the guy in the photo; ever so diligently contemplating what ipod he should buy.

And while I'm here, I'd like to let men be aware.


You are noticed.


Girls do look.


Even by little old ladies like me.

Uncle Ernie

I just came back from a trip to the Caribbean to celebrate the birthday of my great-uncle, Ernie.

Uncle Ernie

What made the trip so important was that I found him after 35 years.

And, I got to wish him a happy 95th birthday in person!
