24 months, my brother Mike's #2
As I mentioned in the previous post, there's a confluence of cousins (or grandkids, depending on your point of view) going on at my folks' place, where Anthony has finally gotten to meet all his cousins. Yesterday and today have been non-stop play, non-stop photo opportunities.
I was too busy/exhausted to process them much yesterday, and today is no different, so I'm just going to throw up a few pictures from the first part of yesterday, mostly for the benefit of the extended family who haven't joined us...

The new sand pile my folks made in preparation for the summer is wonderful, in the shade on a hillside, with three tons of sand...

Nice to see you in Ohio…I bet that plane ride was a long one. I’m over in Euclid and love following your blog from the other side of the world. How did you add the GPS (Google map) info on each photo? I just realized what that was….very cool!
Adding location info to each photo is “geoencoding”, and there are lots of ways it can be done. Personally, I carry a GPS device that creates a tracklog of its location over time, then later link up photos to locations via the photo time (using my geoencoding plugin for Lightroom, but again, there are lots of methods). —Jeffrey
Wow!
Fantastic family photos. I love the one of the baby girl going after the ball. She’s so cute! I hope you’re having fun on your vacation!
