We have been married 19 years today. We don’t seem to have any plans. Except to make it to 20 years.
Thank you, Carlton for 30+ years. Thanks for being my best friend. Thanks for grand daughters. Thanks for winters in the sun. And for summers in National Parks.

We have at least one grass/brush fire a month. Our village gets less than 20 inches of rain a year. And, that usually comes in several massive rainstorms. But, the good news is – there is plenty of water handy for dousing.

Happy Anniversary ! I will always remember as our team would guess who your mystery fella was – Carlton that rascal had us all fooled!
Much happiness and here’s hoping you get all the twenties together – no one is promised tomorrow but you can still make a wish.

Thanks Dave! How’s the camera on the new improved iPod? Not that I am going to spring for one.
Happy Belated Annv. Carlton (40) and you too Peg (20).
Love to you and we miss you and look forward to having you
back here.

Thanks Vicki! I might get Mr C back earlier than planned. But, I can only nag so much.
The newest ipod touch gives and taketh away.
As you note the improved camera – while still a gen behind dedicated cam or the iphone its quite decent. The big thing is it is aways in my pocket in a thin cover. The same toy that lets me browse and email from free wifi, play music, read ebooks when I don’t have the kindle with me, takes good ( not great ) pics – I’ll try to send a few. Sadly no turtles grin. As you know the camera that is always there – wins. Amazing device for the length of a snickers bar and the thickness of a dorito. Doesn’t melt in pocket either. LED flash for close dark shots. Reasonable video.
However the new charging / interface standard is under tight Apple control and they are charging around $30 for an adaptor – rendering most current stands and accesories useless. Sometimes, from the reviews of the adaptor it will allow a dock or stand to play music but not charge. Real useful if like Apple you need to sell a new round of accessory devices. I kinda knew this going in though so no more crying…
