St Simons Island

This weekend I am on the coast of Georgia for a wedding on St Simons Island. I do love to do beach weddings and will post more tomorrow night from the beach. The photo shows the view from my hotel room. The place is called The King and Prince and this evening after supper I sat and watched the tide come in. I almost fell asleep it is so peaceful.
Earlier today, I had a meeting with a couple who's wedding I will photograph over 3 days in New Port, Rhode Island in October. They live here in St Simons, so it was convenient for us to get together here rather than them drive 5 hours
to Atlanta. I liked them so much that I just can't wait for October. "Plus just skipping summer in Atlanta would be a dream " So lets all just think real hard and wish June,July, August and September plus all that humidity away until next year. I will post again tomorrow.

Now You Have To Deal With Us!

Tonight my son and his cousin Dalton played their first gig as a band. Keep in mind that Dalton is a 6th grader and my Son Garen is in the 7th grade. Dalton called 3 weeks ago and asked Garen if he would play drums at the school talent show.

So the band was formed and since the singer and base player quit, they had to change what they were going to play and do an instrumental. It started off with The Who's "Can't Explain" with no vocals and then to a little guitar flat picking and then to a power chord riff that Dalton came up with. All of this from time to time run threw a Jimi Hendrix style Wah pedal. They sounded FANTASTIC ! and just blew everyone else off the stage. I knew it would be wild when Garen first walked on stage and grabbed the microphone away from the MC and said "Now You Have To Deal With US ! "
If I can figure out how to put video on this blog I will post some of the show. But for now you just have a few photos
