DailyPhotos > popular today > 12-17-09 So today is the five-year anniversary of my marriage to my wonderful husband. It's almost hard to believe! Technically, our cruise was our big anniversary celebration (which doesn't leave us much for today) but today is the actual date we were married. And we're still so happy. This shot was taken at the Venetian in Vegas -- one of the panels on the ceiling. If we hadn't done the cruise, we would have come to Vegas for a few days and probably stayed at this hotel. Ah, well, maybe next year. :-) Today's link is one of the most beautiful winter shots I have ever seen. Enjoy. http://methot.smugmug.com/Other/Black-White-Sepia-Toned/7474749_nHTvB#415135303_kQUyV

DailyPhotos > popular today > 12.17.2009 Omnimax Theater Over the weekend we took the kids to the Omnimax Theater to watch 'The Light Before Christmas'. This photo was taken as we were waiting in line, which provides the movie goers a view of the projector through this glassed enclosure.

DailyPhotos > popular today > December 16, 2009 - "Rare Books" I enjoy exploring the detail in this photo (2007). The store also has a fascinating history. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia "Shakespeare and Company is an independent bookstore located in the 5th arrondissement, in Paris's Left Bank. Shakespeare and Company serves as both a bookstore and a reading library, specializing in English-language literature. The bookstore also houses young writers, known as "tumbleweeds," who earn their keep by working in the shop for a couple of hours each day. The current store is named after and in honour of an earlier store which closed during World War II. The original bookstore's proprietor was Sylvia Beach. It opened in 1919 and was located at 8 rue Dupuytren. In May 1921, Beach moved the store to a larger location at 12 rue de l'Odéon, where it remained until 1941. During this era, the store was considered to be a center of Anglo/American literary culture in Paris. The shop was often visited by artists of the "Lost Generation," such as Ernest Hemingway, Ezra Pound, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Gertrude Stein, George Antheil, Man Ray and James Joyce. The contents of the store were considered high quality and reflected Beach's own literary taste. Shakespeare and Company, as well as its literary denizens, was repeatedly mentioned in Hemingway's A Moveable Feast. Patrons could buy or borrow books like D. H. Lawrence's controversial Lady Chatterley's Lover, which had been banned in England and the United States. It was Beach who first published Joyce's book Ulysses in 1922. The book was subsequently banned in the United States and United Kingdom. The original Shakespeare and Company published several other editions of Ulysses under its imprint in later years. The Shakespeare and Company store on rue de l'Odeon was closed in December 1941, due to the occupation of France by the Axis powers during World War II. Allegedly, the store was ordered shut because Beach denied a German officer the last copy of Joyce's Finnegans Wake. The store at rue de l'Odéon never re-opened. ................................."
DailyPhotos > popular today > This is about how I feel. It was a hectic weekend, between the Cadillac Club Christmas party and celebrating our son's birthday. I hope to be able to sit down and catch up with all of you soon, and see all the lovely photos you've taken over the weekend. ..... although I suddenly realized that Christmas is next week! Yikes! :-) (December 13, 2009) "Sometimes the most urgent thing you can possibly do is take a complete rest.” ~~ Ashleigh Brilliant Thank you Sparky and George, for the suggestion to crop this shot. You're right, I like it much better now! Thanks!

So today is the five-year anniversary of my marriage to my wonderful husband. It's almost hard to believe! Technically, our cruise was our big anniversary celebration (which doesn't leave us much for today) but today is the actual date we were married. And we're still so happy.

This shot was taken at the Venetian in Vegas -- one of the panels on the ceiling. If we hadn't done the cruise, we would have come to Vegas for a few days and probably stayed at this hotel. Ah, well, maybe next year. :-)

Today's link is one of the most beautiful winter shots I have ever seen. Enjoy.
