Progress?

I know, I said I'd post this afternoon. But, Nadal was getting his butt slow cooked by Andy Murray before they called a rain delay, and Cristine and I were on the edge of our seats gnawing the nubs where our fingernails once lived. Murray was the better player today, I hope Nadal can come back and make some history against Federer. (Not that I don't like Federer, but come on, now - 3 grand slams in the same year?! Go, Rafa!!!)

Anyway, Presleigh continues to taunt us with her own rain delay, we suspect because knows that once she leaves the womb, she won't enjoy Chinese food again for a very long time. However, the advent of contractions both last night and one again today could be evidence of a move forward.

My buddy, Mark, was nice enough to loan me his Canon EOS so we could take some nice pix when she finally arrives. So, the longer she's in there, the better the pictures may turn out as I practice, practice, practice. Anyone good with getting white balance right? My close-ups keep getting washed out by the flash.

Oh, and another plug for Mark: if you wind up with a bunch of trees down or tree debris because of the upcoming storms, give him a call at 800-TREE-EXPERT. He's got an awesome crew and tons of knowledge.
Check out his article on dangerous trees.

How did we go from tennis, to Presleigh, to cameras, to trees in one post?

Anyway, if you guessed up to now, you don't get a prize. If you've guessed later, you could be a winner. Keep in mind, she's got to come out by Tuesday. She can't stay in there forever, right?
