Keegan's 3rd Birthday - for real!
Yeah! I got it to work. Nothing like restarting it 20 times...does the trick everytime! So here goes the photo essay - for those of your who couldn't make it.
Opening the bike on July 3rd morning.
Much debate over
this in the last few months for me. Wanted to get him a Big Wheel, but didn't order it early enough online, then, no stores carry them. He's big enough for the 12" two wheelers with training
wheels, so guess what.....That's what he got.
The cake was made by Christine Ahearne-Zurkan.
She offered, and did a far better job than I could do.
Keegan requested a purple and red bumblebee.
(We did a bug theme for those of you that didn't know.)
He was very happy as you can see....it was huge!
Making a wish.....
Keegan's party - technical difficulties
Greetings all... Now that I have logged in on Firefox, I can post like a normal person again, with links and formatting, but now I am having difficulties with my camera. It keeps saying it is in PC Mode when I plug it into my computer and it won't recognize it. This really bums me out because I took a bunch of photos off it just a couple of weeks ago, and I have a whole bunch of great pics of Keegan's party this past weekend that I would really like to share!
We camped and partied over at Tinicum Park in beautiful Erwinna on the Delaware. It was a great time as always, and seemed easier than last years....but still alot of work. I kindof streamlined it. Keegan got alot of gifts - all through the last week - with a few more coming in today. It is time to sort and sift through for an upcoming yard sale at the end of July.
I guess I can load them at work tomorrow if I have time.....bummers.
We are in the throws of a great thunderstorm here. Starting to calm down now.
I'll keep trying.

Musings on freeze
Posting this tonight...but wrote it last night. I heard on the radio driving home tonight that the NJ Govenor and others have come to some sort of agreement on the budget. So gambling will resume in a few days.
Last Night...
So today started the first day of a government freeze in New Jersey. Corsine is playing hardball with the budget which was supposed to be in place by July 1. They waited for the 4th of July weekend to be over, but now, gambling has been halted...yes that means the govenor has ordered the casinos in AC shut, no lottery, and the state parks..such as Island Beach State Park at the shore are shut down. An interesting think to watch and see how it resolves itself.
On the local front, flood cleanup is going as can be expected. The Herald flood issue hit the streets today.
I checked out the problem I am having with buttons to format text and make hyperlinks in the Blogger help section, and it appears to be a Safari thing. I will check back in on Mozilla next time so I can get the link to the BCH website up here.

Instructable.com
For those of you who have yet to check this out.
http://www.instructables.com/
It's a very cool website put up by the creative folks at Squid Labs outside San Fran.
Something for everyone, and they tell you how to do it.
A huge collaborative effort, very cool.
One of these days something will pop into my head to post.
And with no connection except that I was looking through Burning Man pics last night and missing it terribly.
(And how fit and tan I was)
Here is a lovely pic of the playa entitled simply,
"Home"

The first of July
My brother says daily posts help the creativity flow. Something to do each day like a journal is the idea of a blog.
I may get on here only every 2 days...but I will try it.
My camera is acting up because I loaded flood pics on my work computer yesterday. It doesn't like to go back and forth since it is an older camera.
Keegan loves the Photobooth program on my computer.
Here's a great pic for wallpaper.
Tomorrow, bugs bugs everywhere. Final prep is underway for Keegan's birthday party next Saturday,
as the flood cleanup begins along the Delaware.
