Grandma D / Northern Wisconsin

SINCE THE BIRTH OF OUR SON, WE HAVEN'T REALLY HAD TIME AWAY.  SO, WE PLANNED A TRIP TO NORTHERN WISCONSIN TO SEE MY GRANDMA.  WE DECIDED TO BRING MADDIE AND I'M REALLY GLAD WE DID.  THE PHOTOS OF HER MAKING A PIE WITH "GREAT DONNA" MEAN SO MUCH TO ME. THANKS FOR LETTING US SLOW DOWN AND ENJOY SUMMER BREEZES ON A LAKE, GRANDMA.  WE LOVE YOU!  

4th of July / Veterans Park / Richfield, MN

THOUGHT I'D POST SOME PERSONAL WORK FOR A CHANGE!  THESE ARE SOME FUN PICS FROM VETERANS PARK ON JULY 4TH. FIREWORKS IN RICHFIELD ARE SIMILAR TO A MINI STATE FAIR.  MASS OF HUMANITY, BUT TONS OF CULTURE AND FUN.  I'VE GROWN TO LOVE THIS RECENTLY MADE FAMILY TRADITION. I WAS SLOWING THE SHUTTER SPEED WAY DOWN AND CRANKING THE ISO WAY UP...HERE ARE THE RESULTS!
