Very Cool 3D Miniature Modeling App (tipped by Brandon Fox)

One of the cooler apps i've come across. Easy and free.
Great to share/do with kids. Helps if the snap includes cars, trucks, trains, and a big "dof", (depth of field).
Here are two examples of my transformations. click on them to get a better shot.
Get it? These are real photos...of mine. Not models. You can do it too. And should.
Then post one of your own below. We'd love to see them.
OK, go to tiltshiftmaker.com. upload one of your pics. click. done. out it comes. publish. really, it's that easy.
And again, thanks Brandon!

Parental Tippage

In the ongoing series about Parenting Tips where the simplest answer is often the best, if you're trying to get your kids to eat slower, give them the most interesting utensils you can find. In this case, encourage them to drive their food around the plate before savoring. If not these, then find doll-size! Smaller is better! Teeny Tiny works best. Have some parenting tippage you're willing to share? Please post it here! (btw, you can find these utensils on amazon)

ART to share....

This is the first pencil drawing I did living on a sailboat in Puerta Villarta, MX. Thought I'd share. Hope it makes today a slightly better day for you. Give yourself a minute and "go there".

If you'd like a print, tell me why...and i just might send one to you.

If you have art you'd be willing to share, please post something...anything....really...it's encouraged...and rewarded.

Change Your Life For Little Or No Money

"REIGNING" SHOWER STARSHIP
For less than $35 you can dramatically change one of your daily experiences! I have to admit I didn't think this would deliver the kind of shower/sea change I had hoped for, but Boy Howdy was I wrong. Took less than 5 minutes to install too. Initiated as a result of not yet being able to build an Outdoor Shower at the house, this economy-sensitive addition is a true rainmaker I had to share! Take out your shower's water regulator (if you have one), for best performance. Don't worry, due to the raining (sic) force of the head, all your stuff gets done in one quarter the time, so you're still environmentally conscious! Couldn't be easier. And it's truly stunning design. Trust me, your whole body will thank you. Changing The World One Shower At A Time...
Send Me Your Shower! I will select one lucky winner who will get a FREE Cascadia Showerhead! Post your pic or essay NOW!
