Tonio and the Black Cadillac...

Tonio as I remember him...

Hey Robert...I'll miss that...Hey Girl, he would say to Niki and Eri...Tonio always had a way with making everyone feel at home, no matter who's home it was. 

He was my abuelita's favorite! 

My Mom will miss his mustard yellow Volkswagon driving down the street, keeping an eye out for her. He went to Germany to serve our country and partied the entire time he was there, so much for service.

I still see him in his Black Cadillac with the big fins, even when I see that mustard yellow VW pull over to the sidewalk..I imagine the Black Cadillac...






iPhone Nirvana...

iPhone with Blogger and Aubrey in back...

Finally got the iPhone 4 from Verizon and I LOVE it...not sure why I love it but that's what the commercial said I'd do?  Transfering the contacts was a bit of a struggle but finished with tech support. Then I figured out how to re-size a picture and make it my background.

Aubrey is my background, she's smiling every time I see her and that makes me happy. She's 18 months in the last session we did @ Eisenhower Park in Orange.

I did install "BUMP" so if you have an iPhone, let's bump...
