Minnesota Bound

I am busy getting ready for my trip back to Minnesota for an early Christmas celebration with my family.  Minnesota had a big Snow Storm over the weekend and then a cold front came through so now they are in the deep freeze.   I am looking forward to seeing my family and friends but I am not looking forward to leaving the nice weather here in Arizona.  
We had a great time at the Over The Hill Gang Car Club Christmas Party & Installation of Officers.  Lots of good food and fun with all our friends.  It was held at Shugrue's which is on the channel next to the London Bridge.  We had a table by the windows so the view was beautiful. 
I have a new Photography editing and design program called Topaz Adjust.  One of the fun features is being able to make people look like cartoon characters.  Check out the group shot below from our Christmas Party.
One of our frustrations when we are traveling finding good places to dine.  I recently came across a website called Chowhound.com that gives you reviews of restaurants, specific dishes and a lot of other insights as well.  This one is not really a travel site but i think it will enhance your trip.  Check it out:

Here are some good tips for all of you Photography Newbies out there.   I cannot stress enough how important a tripod is to getting sharp phots.
