A lesson for all of us...and don't forget John

The lesson: don't edit/delete digital pictures from your camera right after a nap. I did that tonight and lost some good stuff. I wanted to put the pics I took in Corpus up, but no. I had the arena, the floor, and a shot of the ocean. I even had a shot of a ship that carries supplies to Iraq and returns with broken machinery to fix. I deleted sunset shots from on top of my house, and a couple of great pics of the kid. So you'll have to imagine all that. And now, so will I. How about a couple pics to make us all feel better...



This is from my honeymoon in Hawaii. It's the sunset from 14,000 ft on the Mauna Kea volcano. Seeing the sun drop into the clouds was pretty cool. The sunset pictures I deleted were not this cool.



The outside of Allen Field house. If you love college hoops, you have to see a game there. I have lots of good shots of this place. That makes me feel better.



And you can't go wrong with Cameron Indoor. What a great place. It's like a high school gym, a museum, and a church all in one. Ok so at least I gave you pictures, just not the ones I wanted.

Now for John. The 8th is not quite over. 27 years ago today, the world was trying to figure out why someone would get John Lennon's autograph, and then kill him an hour or so later. It was one of the greatest losses in music history. So pop in some Beatles or solo stuff and soak up the greatness. I'm going to go with LSD and Julia. Parents, raise your kids to love music. It is one of the greatest gifts you can give them. Like Andy says in Shawshank, they can never take it away from you. We love you John.
