On our way home from Portland we decided last minute to hang out in Seattle to avoid I-5 rush hour. We ended up at the Seattle Aquarium for a couple hours. The facility is beautiful. It’s a little pricey for its small size, but I think I got my money’s worth in pictures.
The Giant Pacific Octopus…aka Captain…was extremely active and alert. It was fun to watch him move around his tank.
More to come…
My parents flew up to Portland for a ministry related conference this past weekend so we decided to drive down and see them. We were able to spend time with all our extended family as well. It was a wonderful visit, but too short as always.
Saturday we had lunch with my Dad’s side and then spent the night with Dean & Beth in Canby. Sunday we had a home church service, which I loved because I got to hear my Dad preach. We then went antique shopping in old town Aurora. I had a lot of fun taking pictures in one of the shops. Afterwards we spent the afternoon with my Mom’s side.
That night we stayed with Lamar, Cathy & Brittany. Monday we had breakfast with the family then headed for home.
My friend Julie and I walked a pretty trail this past Friday in Lynden. We brought our cameras even though it was overcast and had fun shooting random things. My darling husband bought me Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2 for Valentines so I have been playing around with different looks and downloadable presets. It’s a lot of fun. I do appreciate the art of good pictures straight from the camera, but this program will help me be a little more creative.
This is for Julie, so sorry you have to deal with dead mice and live ones too. Cheesecake sends her regards 🙂
