One of the features of the new computer is it has a memory card reader, so, of course, I have to try it out.
I think Cinders is hiding from Demi, but then again, maybe from Mitch. :D
Went to visit a friend with whom I worked at my very first job, (before you were born) in the late 1950's and we have kept in touch. She lives at Yarra Junction, which is about 30 km from here. In the Yarra Valley. Pretty spot, but too much traffic to take photos from the car. This is her little dog Lettie. Very friendly, part poodle, maltese, shitzau and part lhaso apso, I think that is what she said. Whatever she is cute.
Because they are in the mountains, it is quite cold. Had the fire going but still cold in the rest of the house at first. Lovely pumpkin soup and rolls for lunch. And lots of talking. Jan does genealogy too, so that took up lots of time. Was also able to help with a few things like deleting things from her computer, She had two antivirus programmes and they slowed the computer down. She wasn't game to delete one.
Also our radio network is going digital. (why do they always have to change things :( ) and she had a new digital radio but didn't know how to tune it, so was able to do that too. ( I sometimes amaze myself =D )
Anyway, a good day, and home in time to fiddle with my new computer. Can't get it to recognize the printer from the laptop yet, but I am working on it.
Must admit the photos downloaded extremely quickly which is great :)
Don't think things are quite in order but this was a "Mexican stand off" trying to outstare each other, but just after the photo, Demi pounced on poor Cinders.
Just miss this shot, Cinders was on the top step and Mitch on the second step, but had opened the door before I grabbed the camera, so they had moved.
Jay played in a finals of the school football competition. Lovely week ground., Love the pose of the kid in the background.
Jay is number 24.
Have a great weekend, enjoy your cook-off. =D

I loved the change from cable to the memory card reader! So fast, efficient and sure. Good that you have that now, too!
Lettie looks so adorable! Many mixes are SO much cuter than many proper breeds - and also much healthier.
The weather in the mountains may give you some taste of the weather we have here in Finland during the Autumn and Springtimes. Fireplace is so small in our house, that it doesn't warm our kitchen at all. All the 'extra' warmth goes upstairs... That's partly good, though - doesn't need to keep the heaters on but only in the really freezing weathers (under -20). But the fire in the fireplace is also like a decoration, isn't it?
Sometimes there's a lot happening what you'd like to have snapped in the camera, but the camera isn't at hand. I seem to have these situations daily. Love the photo where Cinders and Demi are staring eachother on their own chairs. Fiery situation. Our cats are doing that at times, too. Often it's the scariest one that attacks in the end...
Photos from the football play of Jay are lovely! Nice shot of moving situation!
Have a great weekend!
Thanks, it is going to be quite a nice week and a busy one, look forward to hearing about your cooking competition.
And me finding time to work out this computer. Not sure if it is the computer or Windows 7 which is giving me hassles. ;0
