Lynn Upson Photo: 12/1/09

I packed up my digital Nikon, 35mm Minolta, 35mm underwater disposable, and a medium format Holga camera for a mini road trip to the most south-eastern states in America. All Kodak NC for the film cameras, varying ISO.....lost one roll to the Minolta but I think I finally figured out that cameras quirk. All my favorite proper nouns, the people, the places, the little things that pull your mouth up into a grin. I'm so grateful, Smile!

Happy mother with newlywed son

Happy Condo, thanks bros!!!

First time I have ever read a book from the SVH saga and the book exchange happened to have the first book of the whole series, "Double Love" by Francine Pascal. This became my beach book for a day. Other titles include "Racing Hearts", "Two Boy Weekend", "Rumors", "Troublemaker", "Teacher Crush", and this awesome sounding story "Don't Go Home With John". Wow. Really. There are even super thrillers and magna editions if you can believe it!

Kendra, Beau, and Barry at the Pilot House.

The Pilot House on Key Largo is mos def a place I will go back to. I love it. It boasts a glass bottom bar with holes in the bar top to drop oats down and attract the fishes, live music every night of the week, fun and happy people, yummy food, plus it's part of a marina too. I have been sporadically spying on the restaurant thru their website where they are constantly streaming live video, it's fun, u should try it.
