Good Friday fun!

Most people I know had today, Good Friday, off. Unfortunately, I had to work.

I wanted to get to work early this morning, because I had so much to do. I got to work at 4:30 a.m. and one of my co-workers wondered why I was in so early. I told her that I had so much to do that I just wanted to start it. I had to upload eight folders of photos to the internet and I knew that would take almost 2 hours. Then my co-worker informed me that the internet was down and it has been down since midnight. She said that she called the internet providers number and the message said that they opened at 8:30 a.m. What a great way to start the day!

All morning we all hoped the internet would start to work again, but it didn't. At 8:30 a.m. many people from my office called the internet providers number to get some answers. Now, the message was saying that they were having "service issues". You think so? Everyone in town can't get on the internet! Around 10 a.m. I decided to leave work. There was nothing that I could do without the internet working.

After lunch with my husband, I drove up to Ann Arbor to meet blogger/photographer Stacy. We decided to walk around University of Michigan's campus and Forest Hills Cemetery to shoot photographs. It was fun. I never really been out shooting with another photographer for fun. Yeah, I've shot with other photographers, but that is always in the work environment. This was a change of pace that I really liked. Usually when I go out to shoot, I'm usually alone or my sweet husband is with me. He doesn't really have a good time standing around watching me take pictures. But today with Stacy it was really great. I didn't have to explain why I was taking a picture or tell her to wait up. I hope to get back together with her and go on more photo trips.

Starting today, I will be posting photos of the trip to Ann Arbor with Stacy. To view, go to DCO's Photo Gallery.
