Lydia From Father Of Click

Lydia by The Father of Click

First off…I know I’ve been rubbish at posting while we’ve been here in the US.  I could make lots of excuses, but I won’t.

Anyway, while we were in Richmond, we ran into a friend at Short Pump Mall.  He’s a photographer and takes pictures of everything.  Like all photographers, he whips out his camera (an iphone) and tries to get Lydia’s picture.  Sometimes she shies away from the camera so he tried and tried and tried.  Eventually he stopped so I thought he just gave up.

Fast forward a few days….we run into him again.  THIS time he whips out his iPad and says he wants to show us something.  I figured he was going to show us the pictures of Lydia.  Sure enough, he did, but he showed us his blog too.  I never knew he blogged!

Anyway, go have a look around at his photoblog — The Father of Click.  Here is a link to his picture of Lydia.

Where is Lydia?

If I had felt better, I would have bought a moca here for sure (I really miss those and haven’t been able to make one yet.  Although someone suggested that I simply filter the coffee.  What an idea!)

Where in the world is…Lydia?

Who remembers the TV show Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego How about the computer games? Or what about the Where’s Waldo books from a few years ago? Well, we have decided that we would start our own version. Here’s how it will work:

Every week (our plan is every Saturday), we’ll post a picture of Lydia somewhere.
You make guesses by posting in the comments of the post (I’ll try to keep up and let these comments flow through rather quickly)
The next week, we’ll post a comment with the correct answer and a new picture.
If for some reason we don’t get a picture posted on Saturday (like if we are traveling) we’ll do is as soon as possible.

Here is this week’s picture:

In the interest of full disclosure, this wasn’t what we thought it was when we first saw it.
