We're having a bit of fog in the morning but not enough to have a fog day. Marc is a bit sad about that.

Feeding of the 260

3 lines scooping Turkey, Potatoes, Stuffing, Veggies and a Bun

The servers are lining up

Ready, Set, Go!

On the far side the servers pick up the plates and
bring them out to the tables


If feeding 260 is this much work makes you wonder about
the feeding of the 5000
The menu was more simple but
there were only 12 servers and hills to climb

RAW image

We are learning to work with RAW images.
I think this actually makes photography easier.
You can still adjust your pictures after you take them


More detail in the sky and colour in the leaves
