out of the country means what now?

After spending a week soaking my body in sweat working in Jamaica, I figured I would let some people see a bit of what I was doing. Basically, I was just doing technical support for a small school in the St. Mary's parish called Water Valley Primary School. My team took 8 desktop computers and 2 laptops to donate to the school for their computer lab. This allowed them to learn essential skills such as touch typing and how to use word processing programs.
The room that we worked in was about the size of a small 2 car garage and was a.) hot b.) dark c.) musty and d.) moldy, but we set up all the computers along with 2 other ones that were already there. This gave the school enough computers to start having classes for the students as well as adults in the community.

I dont ever want to touch an old computer again.

another day, another dollar

I dont have much to say about today, other than it wasnt so great. The pictures though? They were great. This one is my neighbor's son Joey, he's two (going on four) and loves the sprinkler.

all alone with no one to play with

Today we had to put my dog Ricki down, she was 14. We've had her since I was 4 and I really haven't experienced life without her. Up until last winter, she was still a spry young thing, full of life and energy. She could still take on our 100+ lb chocolate lab Hershey, out running him and easily out cornering him. She had been steadily going down hill though, until this morning when she couldnt stand up. It was then that we realized that she was telling us that she'd had enough.

She will be missed.

Day 2 of 365

I went out wandering today with my camera again and found some stuff and took some pictures of some things. How cool is that you ask? Well, I thought it was pretty cool. My new Sigma 30mm is treating me pretty well and giving me new challenges, which I enjoy.

Now you can enjoy my next picture.
