I like this picture because of the double exposure and collage-like effect. It is actually 1 shot taken with my Sony Cybershot set to "auto". It is taken from the sidewalk in front of a confectioner's shop in Niagara on the Lake, Ontario. The buildings and couple are reflections off the storefront window. Several juxtapositions here, I think: inside/outside; stillness of the candied apples/motion of the cars and walkers; old buildings/digital thermometer. This photo will always bring back fond memories of a relaxing weekend spent in this little town.

We will get home later than expected but the dog has plenty of food and water.  The worst that could happen is we may have to clean up an "accident" left as a message not to neglect her for so long in the future.  OK, if we can get tickets, we're doing it! I ask the young man at the ticket...

Baby Boomer Memory Test

For some reason lately I have been thinking about the old celebrities and the characters they created. Sure every generation has their Puff Daddies but it seems to me that we had more of them, or at least they were more memorable.  So it just seemed natural to list as many as I could.  I am sure there are dozens more that I can't bring to mind but this list stood out as those who created some of the best memories of my youth.  See if you can match the popular actor to the iconic character that helped make their career. 1.  Jackie Gleason                                                  A.  Jose Jimenez 2.  Red Skelton                                                       B.  Chester A.
