Me and an iPad

I finally got to see an actual iPad for the first time.

Our IT person brought it up from downstairs and shared it with us.

I played with a piano app and played Chariot’s of Fire for my coworkers. I then played around with the Adobe Ideas app and my coworker Ed took a photo of me with the Devil Doll I drew.

I was also able to test if the Apple Component AV Cable works… and it does.

Flowers and Sprouts…

We have a bunch of pink and purple flowers now in bloom in our backyard:

Money Plant and Seaside Daisy
