Yesterday was Pittsgrove Day down near Elmer, NJ, which is where my parents and brother and his family still live. The kids and I went down to spend the day, and capped it off by watching the fireworks from the end of my parents driveway. While we sat in the back of my dad's pickup, we spotted another family with the same idea one farm over. Barns, corn, pickups and fireworks.... Makes me think of summer days, Americana style.

I still remember my first pogo stick. My grandparents gave them to us, all 6 of their grandchildren, one Christmas. We wanted to try them out so badly, but it was dark and cold out. Bless her heart, but my Meme let us take them in and use them on the tile floor in the dining room! I used my pogo until the handlebar eventually cracked off. I was surprised to see it is like riding a bike - I can still pogo all over the place. Not the most useful skill, but definitely high on the fun scale! The feet are Josh's as he works on getting to 20 bounces in a row.

Josh is going to give container gardening a try again this year. Last summer I had such high hopes for my tomato plant. I staked it out front (sunny spot), watered it, and watched it grow. Just as the tomatoes were getting big, a deer decided he wanted the greens. He ate the leaves and stems, and spit and squashed the tomatoes all over the ground. It almost looked like the act of a rebellious teen, trying to get revenge. We'll see how Josh's strawberries and watermelon make out. We might try a corner of the deck and see if it gets enough sun out there. At least it should keep the wildlife away.

Just a little sneak peek from my shoot at Washington Crossing Park tonight. I had to laugh when I pulled into the parking lot and found a family all dressed similarly - kind of makes them easy to pick out (when it's our first time meeting) as being the family ready for a photo shoot! The weather held out just long enough to squeeze in the shots I had hoped to do. The kids were great, especially since we ended up being there for close to an hour and a half. Mom and Dad weren't crazy about joining in, but I hope when they see their family shot they will be glad they did...

I spent the morning with photographer Jeff Reeder, and cannot thank him enough for his kindness and generosity in working with me. Jeff has been an invaluable resource, and has openly shared his talent and expertise in a way not many other professionals would do. When I got to the point where I was ready to make the switch to digital, Jeff patiently walked me through the transition, and even now when I call he willingly answers my questions, or, if needed, walks me through the process. Here, Jeff stands in as I practice a new shooting technique. To view Jeff's stunning work, go to http://www.jeffreeder.com. Thanks again, Jeff.
