February 22, 2008 by Renata 1 Comment

One of the things that I LOVE to do when I am in Daytona is to get up early and watch the sunrise... I like to be alone with my thoughts first thing in the morning and ready myself for a productive day... I got a new Nikon 80 for taking pictures last Christmas, like Christmas of 2006 and I have spent over a year trying to figure out how to use it... Sunrises are hard and they go very slowly -- so really I should set my tripod up to capture the same view as the sun ... Read more »

January 31, 2008 by Renata Leave a Comment

Hi, I have the blues, but the wrong kind of blues. It is the final day of January and we are feeling the chill of another Chicago winter...this is what my flower garden looks like today.

I have paid kids to shovel my driveway 2x -- I am doing my part to stimulate the ... Read more »
