playing outside

I'm having a weekend of free photography information-i.e. free class on lighting at ritz from my camera purchase which I was the only student-good for me, I had a lot of questions.  Now I'm watching Tamara Lackey on creative live.  It's a free live broadcast online.  So I'm having fun, although I was playing with my camera with my selective focus and now I have the black squares in my view finder all the time and having trouble seeing the red dot light up to see where the focus is at.  errgg!  So I might be going up to the mall and having a talk with Maurice at ritz camera. Here are some pics of the boys playing outside this late morning.  Have a great day!
