Post 211 7/18/08 Yes folks...I really am in Florida!!! LOL Straight out of the camera except fot the crop. No, this is not pp selective coloring of a horse, by the way! Remember Belle, the little dachshund wearing pearls that I took pictures of in Central Park in NYC a few months ago? Well, she lives here in Florida now and I have kept in touch with her 'mom'. We got together last night and 'mom' took us for a ride to see some horses at a horse farm near here, but made sure we saw this zebra that lives near the horses. This is probably the best photo of the trip so far and certainly the most surprising! Not the usual Florida shot, is it??? Andrea...thanks for your tips.. Are the ears perked forward the same for zebras as for horses???
Post 210 7/17/08 I love vacations! We arrived in Tampa early yesterday, as you know. It was cloudy with off and on thunderstorms, but some clearing in the afternoon. We had to get up at 3am on Wed morning for our early flight so yesterday, quite honestly we were pretty wiped out and napped on an off..Getting older really does make your recovery from lack of sleep a lot harder. Maybe it was because we could nap, too...who knows. Anyway, I did take a few shots, but with off and on hard rain I didn't take my camera out too much. This is a little plaque inside our little efficiency room where we stay...Love this place!!! By the way, it was cooler here than in Philly yesterday, probably today, too. Good timing on our part! I will post when I can, but have to make myself break away from my computer habit, too while here....Diet Pepsi and computers...too much for one girl to give up, but that's how it goes sometimes!
Post 209 7/16/08 Meet Dylan! Another walk, another doggie portrait. I am writing to you from the Tampa Bay, Fl airport. We got here at 9am this morning, a wee bit too early to pick up our rental car without paying another day rental on Sunday. Ok with me, finally connected to the Internet to upload my potd. This pup with his cousin "Harley" have a little gallery, too, now. I am collecting galleries of dogs when I walk it seems. Maddie had been chatting with Harley, Dylan and all their parents and Maddie's mom was raving about her portrait..soooo I had to take more pics to keep everyone happy. I will try and keep in touch, just depends on whether we get Internet along the way. Stay cool! Hugs, Me
