Needless to say, they are not perfect, nor will they ever be unless I do new drives. Keep your anodes fresh kids.

Sony just dropped the A6000 down another $100. I think I'll bite the bullet when I get paid for my trip. I missed so many good photo opportunities due to my 11 year old camera's limitations.

Stainless with tef-gel on the threads and nylon washer. If you use galvanized you might as well just accept the fact those anodes are now permanently installed.

Just had arts and crafts time with the 5 month old making mothers day present.

some modeling clay.
a round flat bottom cooking pot.
paper plate
plaster of paris

flatten the clay to about an inch thick or so. Us the pot of a bowl with no type on the bottom to make a play bowl with flat front. Press baby feet and hand into the clay. Mixup the plaster and pour into the mold. Then let it set for 5-6 hours. remove the clay and you have a 3D mold time capsule of the feet and hand. i made a rustic frame that it will be mounted to and the area around the foot and hand will be painted a light sky blue for boy.. I think mommy will cry.. Im going to make another for my mom and another for the wife to take to the office without a frame.

Pics when done..

Waiting patiently for the phone call that the boat is done. :mrgreen:

If it is I will be dropping it in the water on Satruday for a test of the all new bellows, shift cable, trim senders, and Gimbal bearing.

Jet ski should be done today. I haven't ridden in a month I can't wait for Sunday Funday. I had to wait on some backordered parts (throttle body clamps) they were rusted bad.

Test day for the boys cardboard boat. Had to go length of pool with two passengers at competition pool for an A. It went the length 6 times with last two laps with 435 pounds....my boy and his bud. Was still bone dry but other teams had to launch. The teacher gave them 20 bonus points for an 120 on their exam grade.

82 pages? Alrighty.

Had this happen a few weeks ago, a few blocks from home. New camera happened to arrive the same day so I hadn't had any time to get anything dialed in.

What camera? I couldn't dream about taking pictures like that with my old ass canon 20d. It just doesn't have the ISO capabilities.
