I was waiting for some test results when I noticed this little vial (for lack of a proper word lets just call it a “thig-a-ma-jig”) attached to my wife’s IV and the really cool backlighting. Lighting was provided by the flourescent reading lamp on the wall. After I took this image I was told everything will be good.  Crossing your fingers does work 🙂

Meet my son Patrick. He’s studying TV and Video production at a local High school (Read College.) This was taken on the last day of school for this year. He had just returned home from  Los Angeles and San Fransisco.He’s won a scholarship for his studies next year so that takes the financial weight off somewhat. He has already done work for National TV and a national newspapers web TV. Who knows what the future holds 🙂

I have been intrigued with Japanese Gardens and now convinced that I will create one, of course in a much smaller scale, on one side of our home. This Shinto Shrine can be seen overlooking the beautifully landscaped Japanese Hill and Pond Garden at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. Constructed a century ago way back in 1914, it happens to be the first Japanese Garden to be created in an American public space.
