Lunar Eclipse

The weather in the Central Valley was crisp and clear last night. It was perfect for photographing the lunar eclipse. We went to the fire station at Kearney Park with the telescope, camera and tripod. It was a great opportunity to play around with shutter speeds and aperture settings. The photo with the tree was taken at night without flash and the only light was behind the camera and to the left. I really need to learn how to use my camera to it's full potential.

School Days

Can you believe that the whole family is in school right now? Dalton started high school this year and Morgan is in seventh grade. They are growing up way too fast! In addition to juggling their schedules with school events, sports and homework projects, Kevin and I are both taking classes. Kevin is taking Spanish this semester to become bilingual. Actually, he is finally starting to get some of his general ed requirements. I have been after him for a long time, but he says he isn't looking to promote and hasn't shown much interest in a degree until recently. Never say never though; you don't know what God has planned for your future. Only two classes left for me and then I'll be able to apply to the Physician Assistant program; chemistry and microbiology. Hopefully some of the classes will also apply towards my bachelor's degree and then maybe a master's degree.

Paso Robles Wine Country

The weather was gorgeous and the wine was even better. Kevin and I had the opportunity to spend the weekend at the coast and take a wine tour. Special thanks to Rotta Winery for their hospitality and personal tour for our group! I finally got to taste all of their wines and came home with more bottles than I care to admit.
