911 Memorial photos

I had the opportunity to see the 911 Memorial tonight, so I thought I would share my pictures. The construction around the site is still ongoing. The depth of the hole left by these buildings is unbelievable. The fountains are a beautiful tribute. Hope you all enjoy the photos.

My computer crashed yesterday. OMG! I think I went through withdrawals. I ran to Atlanta and Leeman got it going so I copied everything to my external hardrive, then I headed home. On the way I thought I would look at the new macbook pros. I wanted to prepare myself just in case my computer died again. I got home and my computer would not turn on. So I ran back to Best Buys only to discover I forgot my purse. So I ran back home, grabbed my purse and ran back to Best Buys.
I am now the proud owner of a brand new Macbook Pro. I love it but I am sick. I did not want to spend that money yet. But it's all good. I have a closing today with a $500. bonus and Diana and I won a contest with the builder and we each get $500. so I guess I can say I won most of it.
Today I have to go to Christy's to get all my programs installed.

OMG!!!! I thought you had an Apple?!?!?! But now you have the newest and best! Good for you!!! Are you bringing it? We have wifi, obviously. I go nowhere without my computer!
So it's Friday night, it's 7:45pm, and Hayle is out with friends. Oy, why do they have to get all grown up?? Dang it!

Mary Lesh said...

I did have an Apple but I bought it used. It was already 4 years old when I bought it. Now I have the latest and the greatest. I had no choice because--as Christy put it--"It's your beating heart."
I probably would have died if I didn't buy it.

nancy said...

hahahaha!! I know that feeling! It is true! I'm glad you got it!

Yesterday was the North Georgia Photography Shoot Out. This is my 3rd year. I came home with my good bag and I had a great time, but no award winning photos. Barb went the first year and won. Go Barb, maybe I need a lesson from you. Maybe next year.

I posted some of my pictures on flickr. I am always amazed how other people "see" the topics.

Mary Lesh said...

Where the hell is everyone? Mom you just came back from a trip. Surely you have things to tell us. I know you had a great time. Give us something---please!

Barbara said...

We are always looking at property waiting to find that perfect place. So yesterday we had our Realtor take us to look at a cabin with some river frontage. What an adventure. SHE ALMOST KILLED US.

Mary Lesh said...

What EVER Barb. I couldn't see the road.Luckily you saw it when you did. Aside from that it was fun- don't you think?

Barbara said...

SERIOUSLY - you would have ran into the side of that mountain if I had not screamed. Yes we had a blast.

nancy said...

huh? I didn't know you guys were looking? tell more about this....

Mimi sat in the baby seat. We were laughing so hard we forgot to take a picture. And that was only just the beginning ...more tomorrow!!!

Mary Lesh said...

That is so funny, Mom. I can't wait to hear some more. It would have been nice if we all could have gotten together. I'm glad you had such a good time.

Gma17 said...

Why won't they look at the birthday calender. Iy says I don't have permission..Who do I ask to get permission?/PLEASE!!

Gma17 said...

It is suppose to say why won't they let ME look at the calendar?????

Barbara said...

Sorry Mom - had some problems with the calendar when I synced my iPhone, Outlook, and Google calendar. I think I got it fixed now.

Gma17 said...

We'll (Christy, Leeman & I) will be filming a commercial at my model home today. We are using my friend Karen's daughter who is 5. When Karen told her she was going to be in a commercial she told Karen, "I can't Mom, I'm shy."
So Karen told her, "Ellie, you'll be fine. You know they are paying you in chocolate."
Ellie joyfully responded, "Oh, ok!"

Christy bought a nice bag of chocolate and has even wrapped it up. Karen suggested Christy wear makeup and be dressed up because Ellie loved pretty girls and will do anything for them.
I'll let you all know how things go.

Mary Lesh said...

Yesterday everything went fine. Ellie was not real happy that she couldn't get a pink bear but we did let her get a pink dress for it. She got her chocolate and she was very happy.

Well today is the day. OMG I cannot believe I am leaving today. I really need to get my laundry done so I can pack. I hope by camera bag isn't too heavy. What would I do? Somehow I have to minimize. I don't know how I am going to do it, but I am. I think I will take less clothes. After all I can wear an outfit at least 2 times and I can do laundry if I really have to. I want to bring an umbrella (for my flash) and a stand so I can do some in door photos of Hayle and Nancy. I want to bring reflectors and stuff. What to do, what to do.
I AM SO EXCITED!!!!!!
