“The RoseBouquet”

I have been busy - BUSY with photos, but no, I didn’t get that photo story ready in time for today. Last night I was printing out batches of photos for two of my aunts to whom I had promised a package.

Whew, I sort’a knew that having a digital camera would mean I’d have to spend time on the pictures before I could print any. Now I wonder if that time investment is not equal to the waiting for development time. There are also other factors to be concerned about, like too much magenta ink in the color cartridge, and all the photos come out with a blue-purple tinge.

Oh, just a sec! I did get a two page photo story done up on Monday night for our Western Tract Mission Walk-Jog-Cycle for Jesus fund-raiser. You can see that here; Rainy Walkathon What with the digital camera, we don’t have to wait weeks for them any more. (Dad changed his mind at the last minute and decided not to go in the rain).

Two things amazed me. One, people were willing to walk that distance in rainy weather. Mind you, the really big drops didn’t start pelting down until after our barbecue picnic was over, but there was an off-and-on mist falling. Two - we raised $5,891.30 (more than last year), despite the rain! Praise be to God!
