I am finding that I use my mobile camera phone more often than ever. It is becoming a nice stream of what I am doing in the real world, and I upload a lot of the photos quickly to Facebook, which puts it in the Mobile Photos album automatically.
I thought it would be nice to supplement the activity stream plugin that sucks in my online life, to show the last photo from this stream.
I hunted around for a nice badge/widget that would do this for me, but there wasn’t really anything in the same vein of the Flickr ones. There are a few plugins that import photos though, such as FAlbum and Fotobook.
I ended up using Fotobook for its code, but tore it apart to give me just the simple widget for grabbing the most recent photo. I was hoping that it would grab new ones, but that didn’t seem to work, so I have cron helping out there.
This photo shows my trip to the local pumpkin patch with family and friends. Sam loved hunting around the patch.

I liked Grandpa’s Pumpkin Patch at the San Antonio shopping center this year since the farm on Grant closed. Anna and a friend spent about an hour or more wandering around there along with bunnies, chicks, goats, a haunted house, 2 jump houses and hay rides (all free). The pumpkin’s were far more reasonable, we got out of there with a small and a large for $14 total.
