We spent the day at Sterling Park, it was a bright and sunny day and James looked like he was ready to do something more than play in his playpen. James got to play in beach sand for the first time and had much fun playing in the grass as well. Mary had gotten me a new 35mm camera and I was very anxious to try it out, so these are the first pics with the camera. Lots of first today!

Sterling Park is located in Monroe MI and is the same park that I had my going away party when I went in the service so it has special memories for me as well.
