Goodbyes :-(
Saturday was sad as we had to say goodbye to the Velez’s who were going back to Oregon. We caught up with them for breakfast in Panera. Kristen gave Josiah a toy cellphone – almost identical to Tracey’s, which was a big hit. Hopefully the noises it makes doesn’t drive them batty on the long drive. We took several photos (start on flickr) which came out well. I was hoping my gorillapod would work, but the camera is too heavy for the lightweight gorillapod (it was the cheap $10 one – free at buy.com with the google checkout discount) so I had to use the pod’s legs to prop the lens up and hope that it was pointed in roughly the right direction.
