She's back!!

It's been months and months and I've not been motivated to SHOOT except for some stuff with my little point and shoot camera.  As soon as I got the Canon from the repair place I climbed into my car, affixed the lens and put in a battery.  A Porsche was parked across the street, and an apartment building with red fire escape stairs..she works like a charm.  What was wrong?  I sent it in cuz it wouldn't turn on.  When I got it back with a 90 day warranty the shutter didn't work.  I took it back and yesterday I found out they hadda remove the guts of the camera, order a part and put it all back together to factory standards..glad it was on warranty because I would need a new one..at $2000 but I would want to upgrade to the model that costs closer to $3000--and of course, no money tree is growing in my yard!

 I really love the spirit of this picture of father and daughter

 My friend, Pat 

 I love the happy faces..even Sister Burt inside her car is smiling happily!

 My son Konohiki and his wife, Jenny

April 28th is Puna's birthday (grandma on the Place side of the family).  So this day will be even more special to Kawika--and in case he should ever forget, all the people in these pictures are witnesses!
