Love my iPad

Two finishes this week! One is still on the camera which is buried somewhere. The other is at the framer's. This is Miss Dot asleep on my leg. Her sissy is not far off asleep as well. I have lots of other photos, but they are all a blur. When they are awake, they are in constant motion. Not good for photos, especially mine. Growing like weeds, they are changing day to day. Dot started off smaller and more timid, but is growing into a very long lanky cat. She is first to the tossed balls and food dish.

Cape cod photos

Hydrangeas are in bloom as well as sweet pink roses and very tall day lilies. Playing with photo apps again.

1796 Coonamessett Inn, lovely Cape Cod Inn was a farm. The original farmhouse is still there and is part of the office for the Inn.

Blogging from the road

Had a blog post ready to go and lost it, so will try again. Hopefully will have some Cape Cod photos before I leave. Here is a photo from the airport, processed through photo app.

First run on the C & P

Setting up to print title page of my BAO book

Inking the plate, an art in itself

First run of 30,  just to be sure to have enough

First part done, short an E to be able to print entire title

Afternoon sun coming in 

Second part done, whew!  Lever mechanics needs some more cleaning and adjusting before the next run

The Queen is entertained

The entertainment!

Sunday Squee


New kittens in the Papa Chair

Experimenting with blue oil base ink 
Testing print my title for BAO 
Sisters playing

The kittens are here!  Two sisters with similar coloring but very different.  They managed the night in the bathroom very well with little crying and are already exploring everything they can get to.  DH picked one up and was cuddling her.  She climbed up to the top of the pillow on his chair and after checking out everything from her perch, snuggled in and went to sleep.    Blogger keeps moving the photos, so I give up.   Did some test prints yesterday with new oil based inks I found on clearance at wonderful art store in Orlando last weekend.  I am very happy with the result.  Just wish I had another E so I could print entire title in one run!  Challenges are good.
