With my knee out of commission, and barely being able to walk, photography prospects grew rather dim. At least 'just' having being sick up until now, I could still go out and take pictures. But it's almost impossible if I can't walk! Jan said I could just take photos out the window. Really??

That big rear-view mirror was always in the way - right in the middle of any scene.....

I tried opening the door part way to see if it would be any better.
Nope....the door won't open far enough...still no clear view....

The only way to get a decent photo was to get out of the vehicle - in the rain....

I managed a couple of scenic shots, but doll photos were totally out of the question.....

I can see why you feel that your holiday was cut short *sigh* is your knee fully recovered now?

And another random observation......I am so surprised that all the houses seem to be constructed with wood! I would have thought that coastal homes that are so much at the mercy of the rain and the fog and the storms from the sea would be made in brick or stone. Wood just seems a such a high maintenance choice of housing material for the location.

My knee is getting better, but it's not quite back to normal yet.

Yes, all the houses are made of wood, with wood siding, but it is a lot of upkeep, so many houses are getting aluminum siding, which is mostly white, and not all the bright colours houses traditionally were painted.

I'm so sorry to hear about your knee...yes, I can see why doll photos would be out for now. I've had my share of knee surgeries so I understand! Hope you make a speedy recovery. The regular photos are still gorgeous. :)
