Pictures fixed

The “Recent pictures” block should be fully operational now. (SmugMug changed their site to improve privacy and I had to write a tiny bit of additional code for that.)

Pictures having a slight problem

When I wrote the code for the site to display pictures and provide links, I took a bit of a shortcut. Well, SmugMug changed their site’s code, and now my shortcut doesn’t work on new pictures. Hopefully I’ll find time this weekend to fix it.

And I thought it was my fault that the pictures didn’t load properly. WHIPPEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Christmas card, holiday card, and birth announcement

Want a sneak peak at our Christmas card, holiday card (sent to people we know who don’t celebrate Christmas), or birth announcement?

I created all three on Helen’s MacBook Pro using Apple iPhoto, Canon Digital Photo Professional, and Apple Pages.

New blocks: "Google Custom Search" and "Recent pictures"

I’ve added two new blocks to the site.

• “Google Custom Search” should make searching for information on this site a little easier.
• “Recent pictures” will always show the latest pictures we’ve uploaded to SmugMug.

Trip to Erwin Orchards

We went to Erwin Orchards on Saturday. We had a great time and took plenty of pictures, though the apples Helen wanted to pick — Cortland — were already gone. A tractor pulled us out to pick a peck (silly Imperial units) of a variety of apples and grab a couple of pumpkins from their pumpkin patch.

Katrina loved picking the apples and playing in the play area. Elena discovered biting apples, which she enjoyed; she kept pointing at everyone else’s bags of apples and grunting.

We though $7 for a gallon of cider was a little much, but we did buy some very tasty doughnuts and an already-picked peck of Cortland apples.

Pictures from Donna & Tom's Wedding

Helen has added pictures from Donna and Tom’s wedding rehearsal and wedding to her photo gallery. (Tom is Helen’s brother.)

I apologize for the orange tint in the pictures from the rehearsal — I’m still learning to use my Canon EOS 30D. Incidentally, my lens is the Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM lens.

Helen's Public Gallery: Open for Business

Helen has posted some pictures to her Public Gallery at Picasa Web Albums. Enjoy!
