I hope you all had a great Mother's Day Weekend. I am sorry I did not get any Blogging done this weekend. I spent the whole weekend with family members. Saturday was my Granddaughter's 6th Birthday Party which was so fun. Saturday night we went to a bonfire at our son's house. Sunday I spent at my parent's house. All but one of my sisters were there and we had a great time visiting. We went together and bought my Mom a new comfy chair for her computer room which she really needed. The weather was glorious all weekend which was a bonus.
My husband has decided he wants to retire so we have decided to put the Miracole's Candy Shoppe up for sale. If you know anyone who would like to buy a really fun business Please have them contact me. I would like to see the store remain open and in Downtown Lakeville if at all possible. It has been such a labor of love for me and I know the kids want to see it stay in town.
There is a Solar Storm hitting the Earth right now. That would explain why our Wireless Interenet Connection keeps going down.

My favorite photo editing program, PaintShop Pro 4X Ultimate is on sale right now. The regular price is $79.99 and right now Corel is offering it for $49.99 which is a great deal. This program is great for photo editing and is a lot more user friendly than some of the others I have used.

Here is an article with some tips on photography musical groups. I have not done much of this. I have found that the lights can make it a challenge to shoot.

This one is from the Improve Photography website. It is what they think are their best Photography articles. There are really great ones of their list. They have them divided up into different categories. If you are just starting out read the beginner ones first. Be sure to read the one called The Absolute Simplest Guide To Learning Aperture, ISO And Shutter Speed. That one will help you to make the transition to shooting in Manual Mode which is when all the fun starts.
