Meet My Fan Club

Sometimes when I get out of the shower and open the bathroom door, I'm greeted by my fan club. From left to right is Blue Peep, Tiger, Blankie, Mickey Mouse (a bath puppet that has never been in the bath) and Lion. Alex wasn't too creative with naming his stuffed animals at first, but now there are others that have more exciting names... like Lou the Sock Monkey, Melman and FiFi the giraffes, and a teddy bear whose name is Susan for unknown reasons, but I digress.

Alex is usually waiting with the stuffed animals, but this particular morning he left all the animals waiting patiently to greet me. It just struck me funny!

Fun with Photography

Part two of my trip to the Domes.

Need a Taste of Spring?

I took tons of pictures of the plants at the Domes, the botanical gardens here in Milwaukee. I'm telling you, those bright colored flowers, tropical plants, and even the cacti did my spirits some good. If you are in a slump or funk and need a boost, I recommend hanging out with nature. It's pretty darn cool. Now, I'm by no means a nature photographer, but I like to try. I need a better camera to do what I want to do. Enjoy this first installment of my attempt at art!
