Walk at Hubbard Park

We took a walk in Hubbard Park on Saturday. Even though it wasn't necessarily a "pretty" walk because the trees were still bare and there were dead leaves everywhere, it was still nice to get out in the fresh air for a bit. We also got a chance to try out our new camera. It worked really well! No more blurry pictures (which I'm sure were my fault and not the camera's, but this camera seems to know that I need a little help in that department).


The walk started off by going on this covered walkway over the highway.


When we got near Castle Craig we played with the zoom a bit. We were surprised at how close we could get.
The castle doesn't look that far away, but we walked up there last year and the walk up is deceiving. It's straight up the hill. So we figured we'd save that for another day and kept going.


Then we tested out the timer feature....


As we drove back home we went under the walkway. This picture was taken from the car while we were moving. No blurriness! I love our new camera!

Trip to Wales

As you can see from the previous entries, I recently went to Wales to visit my kids. I had a great time, but let's just get to the pics.


See the lovely face pulled by my son?


And look close to see that Jessie's got rabbit ears behind my head... Ah, it's great to be loved!


These are from a day in Cardiff, the capital of Wales.


Two more...


Oh yes, and let's not forget the newest member of the family: Holly!
