Broughton Boys Cap 8 Tournament Champs 2013

Broughton scored one more to make it 67 to 58.

On Friday night the Broughton High School Boys Basketball team defeated Leesville to win the Cap 8 Tournament.  I'm an avid fan of this team and have been for four years.  My grandson Zach, a senior, is on the team.

I'm looking forward to the state playoffs. I'll be right there behind the bench.

Learning to Use My IPhone as a Camera

My new IPhone.

I usually have my camera with me, but recently there have been a few times when I didn't so I tried to capture some pics with my new IPhone.  These are some of the first ones I've made with it. 

Briggs, the grandchildren's cat, jumps up on their fridge.

Granddaughter Grace amused at Briggs, the cat.

Briggs is down off the fridge and Grace is happy.

Greenscape designs and plants these living walls.

Another living wall in Cameron Village.

 It's hard to ignore these living walls too.

Not as good as a camera, but pretty good for a phone.  At least I always have my phone with me.
