Press the Little Doohickey
Life 05/08/2007 |This weekend, we got Prairie her own camera, a Pentax Optio M20. It’s perfect for her — a cute, compact little point and shoot that takes pictures of what she points it at. We knew it was hers because it came in a pink box, and we got a cute little pink camera case for it, too. Perfect for my girl.
In fact, this comic strip pretty much sums the two of us up when it comes to photography (though I don’t greet her by saying “Hey there, pig,” when I walk up)…

Amazing. I just sent you an e-mail about a camera for Berta.
When you have time, I would appreciate your idea on whether this is the one for her, given what I put in the e-mail. She has about the same approach to photography as does Prairie, but weight is a serious factor due to her arthritic hands.
Thanks, and love to you both.

SOOOooo glad your greeting is not “Hey there, pig!” I prefer something enlightening like “Dubboo smuch.”

I now have a new little doohickey! And it matches Prairie’s! I have my name on mine so we won’t get them mixed up NEXT MONTH. Can you believe it! Some days seem interminable, yet the months fly by. I guess that’s the “senior” viewpoint.
