I see this as an opportunity in the making...

I fire up Orange Krate and off to the dentist office we go. Since my wife is my hygienist it is a great thing but... I definately don't want to tick her off before I go!

Afterwards I run a few minor errands and then go out for lunch and I drive her around town in Orange Krate just taking in all the post rainy day skies.

We come home and she goes into the kitchen. It is right as the sun is setting and the light is peeking in the kitchen window (which faces west). I am messing around with the new Iphone camera (5 megapixel) and see a shot in the making. The light is just right but I do not have time to grab my Nikon out of the closet. I snapped the Iphone shutter and captured a soft, warm moment of Erica. After being married to this gal for almost 24 years I still find her captivating. I love to take Erica for rides in Orange Krate all over Southern California because it is a great car for doing just that... no cares, no worries!

(Thanks Oshawa for this fine car too!)
Stunning, and what amazing quality of light from a cell phone camera..

Glad you two got to enjoy the weather... My wife Debbie and I have a blast on carefree days just designed to piddle around...No responsibilities, and worries...
