Snoop Maddie Mad- Not The Worlds Greatest Hide and Go Seeker

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

You gotta love Snoop Maddie Mad.

When I get home from work sometimes she will run and hide and want me to find her.  Most times it’s right out in the open but she puts her little hands over her eyes and figures that if she can’t see me that I must not be able to see her, LOL.  Here she is hiding under one of the dining room chairs.  I’m thinking that becoming a spy is not at the top of the list of career choices for Snoop Mad.

Snoop Maddie Mad is A Lobster!

I picked up Snoop Maddie Mad at school yesterday and took her out for lunch.  She rocked this lobster cap all day long because she’s pimp like that!

Bumble Bee Slide Show

 It was a pleasant surprise to come home from Naples and see all the trees in bloom and the grass green.  Bare trees are not my favorite thing.

Yesterday the bees were working furiously around the house so the Bean and I grabbed our cameras and took a mini photo safari (that’s what we call them anyway) around the house.  I was all about the bees and our kwanzaan cherry tree which is starting to bloom.  The Bean was more interested in taking pictures of the tulips and flowers.

The Bean says-

“I didn’t take any pictures of the bumble bees because I thought they were going to sting me.”

Naples Beach Hotel Outdoor Facilities Tour

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

This is the joint I’ve been hanging around during my winter vacations for almost 20 years. It’s old school Naples Florida and still retains that charm of Florida the way it used to be.

The staff is friendly, the facilities perfect and the whole place just works. We pull up, valet the car and set up on the beach. There are eating, drinking and bathroom facilities open to the public. If you spend $15 at the bar or on food there is no charge for the valet.

We made the girl’s names out of shells.  I figure this will make a nice picture blown up for them.  Maybe we will put them in their bathroom.

Here’s the Bean’s-

It was a quiet beach day realtively speaking-

Here are videos of me taping the Bean while she taped me during our video safari and the other way around.

The Bean and Daddy’s Photo Safari Slide Show

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Well mammaw got the Bean her first camera for Easter and yesterday we walked around Fifth Avenue and The Naples Pier (the same pier my grandfather Captain Joe used to fish off of daily during his winters in Naples).  We spent the day on a photo safari taking pictures and me teaching her some of the basics.  I have to say that at her young age of 4 and a half she really does a pretty good job of framing her shots. 

I’ve been teaching her about trying to take pictures with the light behind you and shining onto your subjects and teaching her about some of the basic functions on the camera like the macro setting and other stuff.  She really seems to love it and I had about the best time that I’ve had down here sharing one of my passions with my daughter.  It was just great.

The slide show is a mix of pictures that she took and I took while on our photo safari together.
