Mono Lake…

IPhone photo of our son in Mono Lake yesterday, during our walk to see the tufa towers. What a beautiful day! I can’t wait to see how the photos I took on my Canon came out.

        1. No problem! But it’s relatively easy to add. Go into your dashboard, and under “appearance”, you’ll find “widgets”. You can add a picture of the award as an “image”. The hard part is finding a picture of the image to upload…

            1. I can’t help you with that part. I found right clicking on the image and “copy” and then “paste” into the image widget seemed to work. You may have to ask someone with more technical knowledge. 🙂

  21. Picture perfect. A place so beautiful and calm. A place we all hope to stay in our thoughts and heart. Looks like your boy had an amazing time. Oh, I think the Ninjago model you saw would make your little boy jump for joy. I saw it on sale at Wal-mart, Target and Amazon. I’m not sure if it’s on sale at Lego store but they give discounts based on points when you become a member of their club. Obviously, I’d been there so many times.

    1. Thanks! Oh, he is sooo going to love the Ninjago Raider. Thanks for the purchase tips.. I think my sister-in-law already purchased it a couple weeks ago, though. My son is going to be so excited! And, yes, we’re a member of the Lego club, and we took advantage of the October double point deal. So fun!
