Its Snowing In Portland!

Last week I had a wonderful dinner with my friends Sally, Cheryl and Bonnie at Bar Mingo in Portland. We have all neglected our blogs lately and agreed to get each other going by having a deadline to get some kind of post up by today.
Well,last nite it snowed in Portland! I love it when it snows here, the city stops moving and everything takes on a surreal quality.I wanted to decorate the tree last nite, but since the snowstorm hit, we cant get it. Today I am going to go and take some Holga shots of the snow and I will post those as I develop them. I hope you all in Portland are settled back and enjoying this rare occurance! Sally, Cheryl and Bonnie, I can't wait to see the blogs!

Fooling Around

Wow. I just learned Layers in Photoshop. Sounds lame but a big step for me! I wanted to know how to combine photos and can't ever get around to it. Now maybe I will blog more? I could look at photos on the Internet for hours!!!!! -stace
