Vintage Fisher Price Goes Digital

A few weeks ago Mr. SP found this vintage Fisher Price toy camera at our neighbor's garage sale.  He spent 75 cents, his own three quarters, and brought it home.  In comparison to his own real digital camera (eight years old and 1.1 pegapixels) the toy camera lost its luster within about two hours.

However, The Banana picked it right up.  She doesn't have her own digital camera, and wants one badly, because, of course, she wants to be like everyone else in the family.  She runs and gets it whenever I bring my camera out so she can help me take "gate pictures."  

Today she and I took a quick trip to the secret bridge park, a tiny little hunk of forest with a creek running through it just six blocks from our house.  In it is a magnificent little stone bridge over the creek.  Hardly anyone knows about this tiny little park, and it's such a perfect little place to take pictures.  I can't believe I hadn't actually brought my camera there before today. 

She and I had a super time taking pictures of each other even though the time was short because I had a meeting this evening.  What I loved best was how she kept putting her camera down to check the pictures on the imaginary digital screen in the back, just like me.  It was so hilarious.
