i’m happy to report that scanning under panther is a painless affair. i just needed to reinstall the drivers for my CanoScan N650U, which i lost when my disk went south a few weeks ago. canon hasn’t updated their site and explicitely stated that the drivers work with 10.3.x, but everything seems normal.

now that i’m back in the scanning saddle, i have to commemorate the occasion by digging a few pictures out of the shoebox. of course, that means we have new dog pictures! the pictures of cadence were taken a few weeks before we ran the chicago marathon, which means she was just a few weeks shy of her first birthday.

and proving that i have at least a few non-dog pictures, here’s a shot i took of my niece ruby as she sat on the curb waiting to greet us at mile 18 of the chicago marathon. notice her very stylish “flying pig marathon” t-shirt that we made for her when she watched us run the flying pig marathon in the spring. it’s a little hard to tell, but she’s refueling with a bananna, just like her aunt and uncle.
