This month has not exactly been fun. My computer crashed and I suddenly discovered how much I loved it. That said, the poor laptop was not reviving very well. I took it off to the tech guys and they gently told me that I would be better off purchasing something new rather than spending a whole bunch of money trying to fix my laptop.
So after 3 hours of talking myself into it, I finally decided to get a pc rather than a laptop and finally added way to many bells and whistles to the pc. My bank account looks sick but I am smiling. Cameron, my son, talked me into buying a 34 inch monitor and I have to be honest it is really a sweet feeling editing on there.
The computer took forever to arrive. Downside for Dell and their 2 day delivery is that it took almost two weeks after hitting the order button the pc finally arrived. But then it had to go up to the tech guys to have the hard drive of the laptop transferred over. I happy to say that it is here. The downside is I lost my Nik plugins for Photoshop. And I really loved them.
That brings me to this month’s blog. I would love to say I got creative and took selfies but that was not happening. So I went back through the archives to find images of me. The challenging part of finding photo’s is that I am rarely on this photo side of the camera. I am normally taking them. But I found a few.
I love to travel and so these images are from places we have traveled to around the USA. I obviously love photography and the other interest that I have in life is genealogy. I love tracking down family past and present and learning more about them.
Richard and I traveled to Denver Colorado in March of 2013. What an amazing trip that was.
Part of our visit was in the Rockies and not being a snow person I was pretty wrapped up and still feeling the cold.
2014 we visited Vegas and I had fun playing with a double exposure app on my phone. I also had fun playing the slot machines in the casino.
This is me. We often vacation at the beach. We have a little pop up van that works well for the two of us and toes in the sand is what each day looks like at some point in the day.
2014 and we are hiking in the Valley of Fire. My brother was on conference and we were able to get away for the day. The Valley of Fire is awesome and I loved seeing all the multi colored rock.
2018 and we took the cable car to the top of the mountain while visiting the New Hampshire White Mountains. The air was thin up there and I had some difficulty breathing to be honest. The air was cold, we were heading out of autumn into the beginning stages of winter.
Another pic in the New Hampshire White Mountains. This particular hike was amazing. We climbed through the mountains and the sides of the mountains got closer and closer.
I am sorry that this is not more creative but honestly I am to tired to even think creatively right now.
