Not A Cloud In The Sky.
I'm doing something I have never done before. It all has to do with my taking care of my "Granddaughter" <---dog. Her name is Bella and she is a Black Lab. Great dog albeit a bit on the hyper side. I like to think of her as Steve with a fur coat. She is only a year and a half old which explains a lot. Anyway, she likes to lay outdoors, so I grabbed my lawnchair, my coffee cup, and of course my laptop and parked it out in my yard. I love wireless!!
This is proving somewhat difficult as there isn't a cloud in the sky. This causes me to position myself facing directly south toward the sun so I can see my screen. Of course this also requires me to wear my sunglasses which protects the old eyeballs but on the other hand, once again makes it hard to see the screen. Therefore, I am wearing my shades but looking under them as I type.
This brings up a techie question. Is direct sunlight good for laptops? ? Hope I don't find out the hard way!
My house is situated right next to the main hi-way through town so I imagine as I type I am getting "the look" from folks as they pass by.
Back to the weather, it's clear, about 80F, with a nice little breeze. There is no Ozone so I will burn. You see, I have spent the entire summer so far wearing short sleave shirts, so I have what we call, a "farmers tan". Today I am wearing a "muscle shirt". Go ahead and laugh, but since I quit smoking and drinking I actually have muscles again. Nothing to brag about, but at least I'm public worthy.
Speaking of pictures, (even though I wasn't) my new found hobby of photography is doing well. One of my shots is running on the front page of a local newspaper website, and another is going to print as the cover of a small publication. Nothing huge, but cool just the same. Speaking of cool, what the hell am I doing drinking coffee?
On the photo bug side, I have it bad. Since I purchased my camera in late March, I have taken around 2500 photo's. Thank god for digital. If that had been film, $400 would have gone bye-bye.
So there you have it folks, you just read nothing about a man, a muscle shirt, a dog, and the weather. And I thought I was bored.
Keep smiling,

P.S. Do blogs have P.S.'s?
P.P.S. I'm starting to smell something burning. It's either me, or the laptop.
