Goodbye 24 hour Mexican food.
Goodbye soccer star.
Goodbye birthday girl.
Goodbye Barbara and Johnny.
Goodbye perfectly blue sky.
Goodbye Aunt Cheryl.
Goodbye Katie.
Goodbye duck pond.
Goodbye beautiful friends.
Goodbye GiGi.
Goodbye Mickey pancakes.
Goodbye sidewalk chalk.
Goodbye Delaney.
Goodbye adorable strangers.
Goodbye Sissy.
We really don’t want to go.

Aw, c’mon. The weather’s been lovely! Okay, it was cold over the weekend, but it’s getting warmer! I mean, it has to, it’s April. And Hoosierland doesn’t have mountains, but the grass is green. Flat, flat grass. But it’s green!
Damn, that’s all I’ve got. Anyway, have a safe trip back to slightly warmer, flat, flat Hoosierland.

I know how you feel. We are in the northwest now for our wedding/honeymoon and are going to have a hard time leaving… even to go back to KEY WEST.

I know you don’t want to go, but it has to be done. I’m sorry for your loss, though. The worst part of visiting home is always leaving.

I’m sure you must have posted about this before BUT what stinkin’ camera are you using? The images are so clear. And beyond that the photographer behind them is really great. Guidance, please.

Okay. I found that it’s a 40D. What lense? I’m a major novice so hopefully I’ll know what you’re talking about if you respond. I want crisp, sharp images (like you!) & struggle with that big time.

That’s funny, when we did not live in Utah we couldn’t wait to get OUT after visiting. Everything seemed so small and quaint, when we would fly in we would look down and go, ‘oh, barbie town’. It took moving back to truly be amazed by the mountains covered in snow in April…but let’s not talk about the tax day snowstorm…

Oh geez, did you sucker Moosh into that sad, pathetic pose like you did with the pink eye picture? I bet you did.
Love the mountain shot in the mirror. Now I wanna go to Utah.
