My wife & I are both off today. We went for a bike ride and hike, now we're back at la casa and after she finishes drying her hair, I'm thinking we might go indulge in some Mexican Food.

Not me, I'm off for the rest of my life, such that it is.
Yup. I was a light day though...put this hardwood in a bath suite. The materials were straight and true, which is sorta unusual these days.Quote:

I really didn't want to come in today but I just now discovered this:

Bobcat, I'm pretty sure, right here in one of largest urban areas on the west coast. Kewl.
Wow, looks like a big bathroom. That toilet location looks kinda out in the open. I get nervous with out a wall to lean against when I fall asleep.:chin:Quote:

I spent years working every Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years. No. It was because the boss wanted to run the plant.
Just got in from driving "X" hundreds of miles to Spartanburg SC. and back. Yes Charles, had there been more time I would have called you so we could FAJITA. But this being a holiday (bullshit muffled in a cough) I wanted to get back to enjoy the final 3 hours of it. Traffic through Atlanta this morning was pretty good. Coming back was a different story. P.S. The State Troopers are everywhere, especially in SC.
Yup. Not much of a brand fanatic here -- my true advice is to "play before you pay". Canon and Nikon are both great and have a lot of stuff at every level. Other brands, too. Sony has nice stuff, but I've been boycotting them for eons.Quote:

Check out the Canon G15.
I got into Nikon purely for the ergonomics -- feels "right" to me. Have used Canon DSLR's, too (5D MKII and others). Some like Nikon, others Canon. You know how it goes, but if you're going with a DSLR, I'd advise a bit of "playing" before you buy. Reason? It kinda locks you into a system where lenses and accessories are concerned. You can't mount a Nikon lens on a Canon, etc.
Been into photography since I was a six year old and the advancements are amazing. Main camera here is a Nikon D7000 (almost 2 years old now), but I use the little Canon S95 quite a lot. The D7000 is more of a "computer imaging device" than a camera. Bastard has more settings than a Yaesu. Took it to the T'giving family soiree yesterday with a SB-800 flash. Think I did okay, no friggin way I'd do this with film.
