NOW The Sun Comes Out

I went to meet Clare and the kids at Memorial Park today, braving the finger numbing temperatures and overcast skies that threatened freezing rain at any moment. It was SUPPOSED to have been bright and sunny, and around 40 degrees in Athens today, but it was nowhere near that this morning! Now of course the sun is shining blindingly bright, and I'm sure the temperature's warming up to above freezing, but it wasn't so when we were wandering through the park with our cameras, kids in tow. We had an enjoyable time though, even if it was brief due to the cold, and we stopped in and had lunch together at Moe's which was nice. I don't get to see Clare and her family as often as I did when I lived just up the road, so it was nice to meet up and spend some time with them.

Anyway, I didn't take many pictures, and they didn't come out as well as I would have liked them too because I'm still getting used to the new camera, but with a bit of retouching in Lightroom and Photoshop, they're not too bad. Here are a few of the better ones. Enjoy.

New Camera...Pictures Coming Soon

I got my new camera today, and I'm itching to try it out. I just need to get some time off when it's not raining! *sigh* I want to go back to Watson Mill Bridge State Park and take some more pictures of the covered bridge, but I would like to find some cool places closer to Athens/Winder to go and take pictures. I'm sure I'll go to Fort Yargo at some point, probably when the weather gets a bit better, but if anyone knows of any good photo locales, please let me know.

Stay tuned, I'll post pictures as soon as I take some new ones! :)
