January 24, 2008. Sandy River Rocks.

We had a great visit with GP. One of the days we decided to head out to the Sandy River and throw some rocks. It was cold. It was so cold that Owen agreed to wear his gloves.
He loves throwing rocks and watching the splash.
This is one of those spots that has everything for him. There are big rigs on the highway out. That's a train bridge there in the background and we always seem to catch one, sand, sticks, rocks, birds, fellas fishin'.... we always seem to have a good time. And it's only about twenty minutes away.
Did I mention it was cold?





January 13, 2008.

These are from one of our trips down to the waterfront on a weekend morning. Owen loves climbing on the rocks and playing hide and seek (like in the first image there). Early in the morning we had some nice fog. We were out to breakfast and saw how foggy it was so we ran home, grabbed a camera and headed out.
Taking pictures is not his favorite thing to do - he likes looking at them on the camera but I either have to trick him into participating in the creation and/or work very fast. I don't bring the camera out all that often- it tends to be on the weekend- but he really wants my undivided attention and doesn't appreciate the imposition.










These were all shot Canon with a 50mm.
