Their So Cute

The first photo above is of my Granddaughter (Alyssa), then my Grandson Maguire now 10 months old, and Maguire's big brothers, Maverick and Marcus. Maverick is getting ready to start preschool in April and Marcus will be wondering where is Maverick when that happens. The last image is of my favorite subjects that I enjoy shooting besides my grandkids. The hummingbirds at the feeders in front of my home.

I have recently changed my photo web site. I was on  Yahoo photos but they closed down this past year. Now you can see more of my photos at http://kq6keddie.smugmug.com/ This is a new site for me and I hope that you enjoy the photos that I've put there.

Ham Radio Photos

Ok, I know I mentioned that this is a Ham Radio related site. Well this past April 25 thru April 27, 2008, I went to the International DX Convention in Visalia, California. This was my fourth time and I am still quite awed at meeting all the great Dxer's (some of them shown below). I've also included the Special Event Station (K6V), a shot of Gina - from U.S. Tower operating K6V, and especially Ed Andress. W6KUT. Ed is with the San Diego DX Club and was the only operator to claim 387 entities worked. Now that is a real accomplishment. I have 160 entities claimed and that makes it a long way to go. As he mentioned to me "you just have to be old to work that many entities." He is truly a star among stars. There is also a photo of Phineas Icenbice, W6BF and his XYl. Also in this photo is Fried and Sandy Heyn, WA6WZO and WA6WZN. This was a photo I took during the Banquet on Saturday night. The speaker for the Banquet was Eric Scace, K3NA the organizer of the VP6DX dxpedition. Wow, what a talk he gave. When he was done with the talk, the whole room of DXer's gave the dxpedition a standing ovation. First time that an ovation has ever been given to a speaker and the group he was talking about. If you have not experienced the International DX convention you should consider it in your plans. Next years will be on April 17-19, 2009, and will be at the Holiday Inn in Visalia, California. Next years is hosted by the Northern California DX Club.
