Some gave all.
But fame is theirs – and future days
On pillar’d brass shall tell their praise;
Shall tell – when cold neglect is dead -
“These for their country fought and bled.”

Paparazzi
I have a new toy! Well, kinda. Hubs got a new toy (a Nikon D300S), which means his old toy (a Nikon D70) is now my new hand-me-down. I’ve always had point & shoot cameras, so there’s quite a learning curve I’m going to have to overcome. F-stops! Aperture! Shutter speed! Oy.
Anyway, consider yourself warned. If you come into contact with me on a daily basis, better make sure you have your hair fixed, teeth brushed, clothes coordinated, and are otherwise generally presentable… ’cause I’ve got a cool new piece of digital image collection happiness, and I’m not afraid to use it!

Things I love.
Sitting on my back porch in the evenings when it’s not too hot and not too cold.
My roses and camellia bushes that bloom despite my inattention.
My Energizer Bunny of a cherry tree that is putting out fruit – despite losing 3/4 of its limbs after a bad storm.
The three vines that will give us a full winter’s supply of grape jam.
