Here are mine!

[Item in my Kitchen](http://photobucket.com/albums/v713/Elenia25/?action=view&current=Picture003.jpg) - I did the front of my fridge, so you can see all my magnets and animals.  
[View from my front door](http://photobucket.com/albums/v713/Elenia25/?action=view&current=Picture008.jpg) - boring! Apartment complex.  
[My favorite possession](http://photobucket.com/albums/v713/Elenia25/?action=view&current=Picture005.jpg) - Well, duh. If you squint really hard you can even tell I have it opened to this thread.  
[Apple](http://photobucket.com/albums/v713/Elenia25/?action=view&current=IMG_0342.jpg) and [ChocoCat](http://photobucket.com/albums/v713/Elenia25/?action=view&current=ChocoCat.jpg) Photographer’s Choice

I had to put them both, sorry.

Sure – those are all Konfabulator widgets. The one above the calculator is Google Images, and to the right is the weather, a CPU meter, a memory meter, the date, and the computer’s mood ring.

Get them [here](http://widgets.yahoo.com/), along with like a 1000 others.

I did not get a chance to do the other pictures yet, I was at the races this weekend. But for Photographer’s Choice I have these two.

[Bubba Stewart #7](http://members.aol.com/sleethestak/pictures/StewartSmall.jpg)

I was trying to get a shot of Bubba Stewart. It’s an ok shot I think, it was over halfway across the stadium. That was resized to 800 x 600. Stewart is #7, he only guy who is fairly clear. In the full size pic he is pretty clear.

[Clearing the triples](http://members.aol.com/sleethestak/pictures/AirBlur.jpg)

I was trying to get someone clearing the triple jump. Once again this is from over halfway across the stadium. I wish the bike and rider were a little clearer and I wanted to get him earlier in the jump. Man, I have new respect for sports photographers. Well, it didn’t help that I was about halfway up the second level of the stadium. I was pretty far away.

I am hoping to take some more pictures tomorrow. I’ll post them then.

Slee.

Hmm… I’m assuming that has some relation to J&R, but I have to confess to not getting it…

I’ll be back in that spot in April, and maybe it won’t be so damn foggy this time. I love the view of the Municipal Building from that intersection.

I mistakenly thought you were on the other side of the bridge around [here](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v19/Biggirl/Gyn%20Trip/SupremeCourtandFriends.jpg) , [here](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v19/Biggirl/Gyn%20Trip/CityintheSky.jpg) and [here.](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v19/Biggirl/Gyn%20Trip/BoroHallinSunhat.jpg)

Jeralalalalman is how I pronounce Joraleman St.

Nope, although Revere knew the guy who owned the house.
