CHINESE PROVERB
…so how busy am I? Well between taking the computer classes, learning the camera and iphoto, I have just a few other things to attend to:
~launching this blog and dealing with a whole next set of problems. By the way guys, the idea is for you to comment here and not comment via email!!!!!!!
~planning my Dad’s 80th birthday in Edmonton on June 16th! Don’t tell him as it is a surprise!
~trying to figure out why the font size keeps changing…..sigh!!!!!!
~finding time to load the RV for the trip, never mind deciding what day we leave here. Oh yeah, we are travelling with the entire zoo!
~biding on something on Ebay for the first time in my life and figuring out what I am doing….if you must know, it was toys for the parrot. She is fussy and prefers McDonalds 2008 Madagascar Return to Africa talking toys.
~watering all my plants plus my neighbors 20 million pots…not so bad really cuz all it does in the sunny Okanagan is rain!!!!!!!!
~worry about my plants in Mexico possibly fading fast…..oh well…it was a gamble..but still..my poor plumeria plants….it took years to find them…and that one perfect hibiscus!!
~wondering whether to push myself to make the perfect healthy dinner or just order the pizza…guess what we did???
~waking yesterday morning….there goes the font again….wondering why my front door was wide open…no wonder we were freezing in the house. Such a safe place we live in!
~not sure why the door was open (hope it was the wind) but I do do know for sure that my husband never came home that night…..yup, a first. Poor Colin, he was on the computer at 8AM and worked till 2PM when the sun started to appear, so he drove off to West Kelowna where he worked till 1 Am when he just crashed on the sofa in the show home before getting up a few hours later at 4Am for the sunrise shots. He got home about 10Am just as I was leaving for a computer class, followed by 80th birthday shopping.
Well I no longer have to worry about my intake of vino blanco versus my productivity!
Colin has waited over a month to get the perfect shots for a Vancouver client re a new project in West Kelowna. I think it was worth an all nighter! The project is called Waterfront. This is one of the sunset shots.

Hey Wow! This blog looks Great Contessa! I’m very impressed – those computer classes have been paying off.
It is very interesting. I’m not normally a blogger but I can see myself coming back to this site.
Keep up the hard work!
PS. Great shot Colin.

A question for Colin. Did he adjust the white balance to get some of the effect in this beautiful picture?
We love the shot of Pat and Ken with the new “girls”.
We look forward to reading the blog on a regular basis.
It is only 5 months until we head out for Maz.
best regards
Marjorie and Bob
Hi! Contessa
Nice to hear from you and congratulations on your blog. It’s all new to me but I’ll figure it out and check in now and again to see what you (5C’s) have been up to.
I have missed hearing from you. Beautiful pictures.

Congratulations on your new blog! There is nothing like learning a new skill to keep those gray matter cells churning. I will look in on you from time to time. Please give our best to Colin and the girls and take good care of yourself.
