test and a plea for forgiveness
i’ve been mucking w/ the site again, tweaking settings and changing themes. there is more of this to come. last night i added a plugin to push out my posts to the social sites that i frequent. so consider this paragraph a test for that.
now to the plea for forgiveness… i’ve re-started (is that a word) getting into photography as a hobby. this is not a cheap hobby to be in, but i have been VERY good about my spending habits, e.g., only spending when i have approval :).
today, i made my first impulse buy at rockbrook camera… the tc-80n3 (nice descriptive name), i.e., canon’s timer remote control.
amy, please forgive me and of it helps, i got a deal (grin).

hiking at fontenelle forest
amy, the boys and I became members of fontenelle forest today. we were supposed to go canoeing down the platte river but with the weather not cooperating we decided to go hiking instead. we all got “geared up” with our camelbak’s and headed on out.
i tried finding their trail map online but was unsuccessful, so I took the brochure they gave me and scanned it in. If you are interested you can see it here and the route we took was A to B to D to C.
the boys had fun, but it was a little long for Kael and he is sleeping now. both the boys were “troopers” and walked the whole way stopping to check out all the bugs. we saw: ladybugs, millipedes, snails, turtles, ducks, train tracks (which we had to walk over and back), the missouri river, tom’s tree house and turkeys.
we will be going back :)
