We took the new kitten into the vet on Saturday, as well as Rex. We too her (“Patches”? maybe, undecided if that’s a good name) in to get her sneezing checked out and basically just make sure that she was in good shape. I wanted to get Rex’s eye looked at again to see if […]
One of the things I did this weekend was to go to a Photography swap meet by Lougheed Mall with dad. It was pretty neat, hundreds of people and probably 50 tables with photo stuff. Everything from ancient (and horribly expensive) Leica‘s to relatively new Pentax MZ-5 and MZ-6. Along with that were the microscopes,
