07_07_07

Well, this is a day that only occurs once every 100 years.

So, what did I do to celebrate it. I walked around downtown with my boys and took some pictures to upload to the Flickr group dedicated to this day. The group is hoping to put together a book of photographs where all proceeds will go to UNICEF. Looks like a good cause. I'm excited.

It was a great day. We started with a mid-morning snack at the local bagel shop and them went to the library. We relaxed in the pool and finished the day with a nice dinner out. Tomorrow will be more relaxation by the pool and not much more.

What did you do today?

Y'know, I can't even remember now what I did (only two days later!)!! Oh yeah, I swam in the pool (with you), I ate dinner out (with you), and I watched a movie (with you). I'd say that it was a day and evening well spent. xo

Cate - I'm right there with ya. This summer has been a blur. And yes, it was well spent.

Tony - Interesting. I never though about James Bond's mother. Too bad she didn't have septuplets. That would have been really cool.

Lee - Thanks. Hope you enjoy Lightroom. There are some great sites out there to help you learn it. There are also a few podcasts if you are into them.

Cool idea. I celebrated 9 years with someone special. I'm off to look at your pics now. Cheers!

Sounds like you had a fantastic one Lou. Your kids definitely have a cool dad who I'm sure they appreciate. I spent my day at the Smithsonian naturalist Cneter, later hit the National Portrait gallery in DC (do check it out--it was recently reopened and rennovated), then saw a great band from Chicago called Tortoise, perform live at the Black Cat in DC. Something you might wanna try with your boys is a sort of photo hunt. Maybe give them certain things to search for take pics of, or go with a them, like "twenty things that are red, or yellow, or bue". Might be fun. Then you can do a mosaic with 'em of Flickr using the Flickr toys. Anyhow, great blimp shot too!
