Photography Takes an Instant Out of Time
Little Patrick is enrolled in college and his first class is photography. He brought his camera over to take pictures with me. He only shoots in film at the moment which I admire. I wish I had the patience.
We went out to take some pictures together and I got a chance to teach him his first and most important lesson. I asked him if he had film in his camera and he opened it up to look. There was no film. And that is the first lesson in photography – make sure you have film in the camera. So instead I decided to take a picture of him looking like a real photographer. He will make a great photographer someday with practice.
Make America Really Great Again
I know Trump doesn’t like immigrants very much. And he would just assume that they all go back to wherever they came from so he could make America Great Again. But this week, one more American joined the country and that is Tu McKenna. Tu is exactly what makes America great. She works hard. She starts her own business. And is so nice the entire way. What a big week for Tu and for America!
The Tortilla Man
The Tortilla Man was created years ago by Bill McKenna in Rosarito Beach. Mike Keagan, Bill McKenna, Pat Lawler, Chris Lawler and perhaps a few others were on a trip to get some “All You Could Eat Lobster”
The waiter would bring as much lobster as you could, he would pile high the beans, the rice and all the accoutrements. But whenever we asked for a napkin, he would bring one skinny tiny napkin that was super thin. That is pretty common in Mexican restaurants. They will give you a huge burrito but give you the skinniest napkin you could think of.
Bill, grabbed a handful of tortillas from the pile and began using them a napkins. It was the ultimate gluttony move. Using tortillas as napkins and then tossing them aside. He quickly fashioned a tortilla into a mask and put it on and began talking like the Elephant Man from the move.
That was the first time Tortilla Man emerged. Last night, Tortilla Man was seen again.
Sip and See
Today was the 1 month birthday for Finn so we had, as they like to refer to it in the south, a sip and see. The love showered all over Finn today as people came from long distances to see the little sailor boy. And what a lucky boy he is.
