Twenty Ten is here

Hey everyone! I'm officially back on the blogging track! For a while I couldn't sign in for technical reasons, but it's all resolved. So Mark's friend (and also my friend) Joe came down for about a week to spend New Year's Eve in Miami with us. Here are some pictures of our adventures.

On January 1, Mark's professor had invited us over for a pig roast. He lives about 40 minutes south of downtown, and he has a farm, goats, chickens, etc. The place was beautiful and I took lots of pictures! This is the street by his house.

This is Mark eating some pig (or some of the other delicious food they had). I loved the country-style house that his professor has, and the amount of greenery in the yard was so beautiful. I think Mark was tired of me taking pictures of him...

This is a friendly horse outside of the professor's house that came up to say hello. Joe wasn't quite sure the proper way to greet him. He was wet, and we called him the Melted Trotting Horse.

Joe is a musician and plays with the country group Bomshel. He's a great bass player, and while he was here he and Mark made some music. This is them at work.

This picture is for Aunt Becky! It's my favorite lighthouse at Bill Baggs State Park on Key Biscayne. I'm laying down on the edge of the wall to take this picture looking straight up.

So, you guys have probably guessed that panoramic shots are my new favorite. Here is a panoramic from the top of the lighthouse. It was pretty hard to match up since the earth is round! But I like it anyway.

Maggie climbed in this window while she was in Miami. So this shot is for her! :)

This is at the top of the lighthouse, looking up to where the light is.

Here are the rocks I love from the top of the lighthouse. If only we could dive down and swim without dying!!

Two-shot panoramic from the keeper's quarters. Couldn't stop taking those...

It was a little cold when we went, but the sky and the lighting were beautiful. Hope you all enjoyed the pictures!
