Learning how to take pictures....

on my Nikon D5000 without always using Auto mode.   What a great thought and lucky for my one of the blogs that I follow; Simplicity  does just that.  Offers eclasses for a small fee.  So I signed up....waited for the first assignment and well...so much to learn just about my camera; and that will be another class.  Maybe some one on one instruction. 

Plus after I signed up for the class I started a job working full-time, something I have not done in about 12 plus years.  OMG....  It will be challenging for me to get down for the class that I need to and I'm already behind....

So I think I linked my Flickr page to my Facebook page and my blog page but who really knows.  I will have to have someone check my Facebook and blog to see if I'm really linked to Flickr.  Hope you can follow that.

Here is my photo buddy, his name if Ali E. Gator. You will see him throughout my class.  I will need to get a can of Scotchguard for when he does go outside.  Have a great week and remember....
Life is good!!!

    So do tell, what kind of job to you take?
    Does that mean you will live in Florida year round?

    Christine, I work in a medical billing office. I've helped them out over the past several years on a part time basis and they offered me full time, what was I thinking! HAHA... I told them I would work til the end of May. They did inquire if I could stick it out for maybe a year with about 3 months off in the summer to head north...but I'm having a difficult time convincing my husband.

    You've been busy! Good luck managing the new job and the photography class! Your photos are always beautiful, so I'm betting you'll do just fine in your class.

A little change of scenery.....

This past weekend I was visiting with my old neighbor at her home in Michigan. September is very nice in the Grand Rapids area, warm days and cooler nights. It was refreshing to escape the humidity of SW Florida. There are sooooo many apple orchards in the area, and she chose one that she had not been too.  So here are just a few pictures.  No pumpkin patch or pumpkins.  Enjoy!

Learning something new....

-
They say as you get older you should continue to learn something new to keep your body and mind active.  Well, I certainly qualify for this. In December, I took sailing lessons, it was fun, frustrating and fantastic.  This has been fun on so many levels.  Just being on the water takes me to a very relaxing space.  Along with learning to sail comes taking pictures of the adventure, which isn't new, but taking videos is something new and then what do you do with all those videos. Well, you learn how to create something with them, which I did. I have created a YouTube channel to share this new adventure.  My friend and I are avid coffee drinkers and not decaf, which we incorporated in our channel name.   Our channel name is DeepSixDecaf . So after about 3 weeks of pictures and videos today I was able to post a video. Please stop over to the channel and take a look, here is a link for you.  Thanking you for taking the time to check it out!...

September 10, 2017 is a date that I will remember for a long time.  It is like 9/11, we remember where we were and what we were doing at a particular moment in time. The days leading up to September 10 were very busy, not only in my personal life, but at the office and with our staff.  Making sure that before we left that Friday we had all our equipment away from windows, stuffed in closets and covered with trash bags, just in case.  Everything was moved but the desks.  It had been a long time since the desks were that empty, almost like we were moving either into or out of this office.  Also, keeping in contact with the staff to make sure everyone was safe.  The plan was that I would text everyone several times a day and they needed to respond to me that all was okay.  They did a great job keeping up with this throughout the storm and afterwards. Leading up to the weekend, I had been preparing at home.  Making sure my truck had a full tank of...
