Stuck and not happy

This picture was taken of Anthon when he was about 3-4 months old in February of 2006. We were on our way home from visiting my grandma in Santa Rosa. Back then, Anthon could sleep for hours upon hours in his rear facing child seat. We didn't want to wake him, but we wanted to know if he was awake. So prior to the shot attached below, I reached back and snapped a random shot with Shelley's digital camera just to see if he was awake. We looked at the shot and the face peering back had eyes open and a concerned look, wondering what in the world was in his face. So funny.

Anyway, I moved to the back seat to calm Anthon down. I love this picture because it really does capture his mood. He was not happy being stuck in his car seat, but he wasn't so unhappy as to really cry about it. His pursed lips was just about all the disapproval he could muster.

The CN Tower of Toronto

In honor of me being in Toronto on business this week, I thought I'd post a picture I took of the CN Tower, one of the tallest structures in North America. The views from up top are spectacular. There's a section with a clcear, plexi-glass like flooring that allows you to see to the ground. Let me assure you, it takes a few seconds to assure your brain that you're not going to fall if you step on it.

I took this shot while I was on a month-long sprint through parts of Canada helping to promote a new mutual fund my company launched in April, 2006. I had some free time on a Saturday and, as you can see, the weather was perfectly clear.

The St. Louis Arch

This picture was taken in December, 2006. Shelley, Anthon, Shelley's sister Rachel and I were driving back to Evansville, Indiana after attending Shelley's sister Diana's wedding. Got all that?

This was my first time to St. Louis and I couldn't leave without stopping to see the Arch. The weather was cloudy and cold, but with a little software manipulation, the shot below actually turned out OK.
