An interesting weekend. Otto got sick for the first time. Not sick as in a fever but a stuffy nose. He didn’t seem to deal with it very well Saturday night. Didn’t get more than a couple hours of sleep that night. However, Sunday morning, mama got the saline drops and we squeegeed some of the snot out wit the aspirator and he was feeling a little better today. To get out of the house for a bit, we wandered over to the park and got some good swing time in. Regardless of how stuffed up he was, the swing definitely makes him giggle and laugh every time. I also got a new camera over the weekend and have been trying it out. Overall, a much better experience as my last one had seen a lot of wear and tear. It’s nice to see crisp clean images again. This camera appears to take much better sound with the video.
Instead of posting them here, I’ve started to host my videos at Vimeo. More storage and they don;t get compressed as much it seems. So enjoy these if you are bored or just want to see more of Otto.
I also did some salting/pickling of meat and vegetables this weekend. Got started on corning 12lbs of brisket for the St. Patrick’s Day Cribbage Tournament. Also feling a little saucy, so i’m doing a batch of refrigerator pickles withe cukes, carrots, beans, and sweet peppers.
I know. No new posts of Otto in a while. most of my activity has been on facebook. But one of my many photo endeavors has been to try and capture Otto at dinner very night. It doesn’t happen all the time. He seems to enjoy the camera. He hears the beep when it goes on, he lights up, and turns toward the camera. Although, dinner time he’s not so happy sometimes. He’s tired and at the end of his rope. He just wants to be fed, take a bath, and go to bed. Here are the first few photos in the set.

EDIT: Excellent. When I add a new picture to the set on Flickr, it also adds it here.
