Still no car - and other possibilities


Still no car. I gather they didn’t even start to look at it until late this afternoon. Please let me get it back tomorrow morning. I really do have some things I’d like to do.

On the other hand, we got our pre-beach trip to Costco done. I found most of the things that were on the list. I lso got a ready-made chicken enchilada dinner. We had it tonight, and it was pretty good.

We looked at some small cameras, too. I’ve just started thinking about replacing my camera. I’ve used a Canon SLR with a zoom lens for such a long time. I still like it, but I’m just not able to use it the way I used to. My left arm won’t raise high enough to get it up to my face, and it’s too heavy for me to hold it one-handed. John reminded me that I really need to find something with a view finder. I’m not steady enough anymore to hold a camera out and try to look through a display window. Jean just got a new one, so I’m going to try out her old Canon Power Shot at the beach. It does have a view finder, so maybe I can work that. We shall see....

Sorry about the car. What a bummer.

As for point and shoots, I got Caleb a Canon Powershot, and it works quite nicely for the price. A friend of mine who is a real photographer swears by the Samsung Galaxy though:

Rain and Storm scattered
White petals of Abelia,
Like after Snowfall.


Sorry no picture!
