Sending out my baby…

January 23, 2008

Well, looks like I’ll be cameraless for a couple of weeks. 🙁

I’m finally going to have this bad boy sent out and get fixed. It’s been dinged up decently well, I’m just worried about the amount of $$$ it’s going to cost me. It is still under some warranty, so maybe some will somehow be covered under there. I’ll be sending it out in the next day or so and I’ll wait to hear back from them.

Canon claims the service takes about seven days from the time they receive it. We’ll see what happens there. Maybe I’ll get lucky and they’ll just opt to send me a factory refurb. That would rule.

Either way, I’m just looking forward to having my camera fixed up and back to normal. Just doesn’t want to focus all that well, which is annoying.

Guess I could dust off the Digital Rebel if I want to go shoot anything over the next couple of weeks. But maybe this will get me to do a couple things I really need to do. 🙂

More later!

Holy smokes!

January 12, 2008

OK, the gym is one thing. You do some cardio, you do some lifting, you call it a day.

These photo days are becoming like work!

Went on a photo outing with Dylan, Darren and his wife Jody (I hope I spelled that right). Went looking for waterfalls again as well as getting to a covered bridge I had never heard of or seen. I need to do some research on this one.

Anyway, the one place we went was a workout. Longer trail, down hill, no footing. I took a spill, smacked my back and all. Probably did a more powerful cardio workout today than at the gym though!

Saw several waterfalls as we went out and about. Really cool. But man, I’m tired. Heading to see the movie Juno tonight. I have a feeling when all said and done after that, I’ll be ready for bed!

If I am catching a second wind, I’ll post thoughts on that movie later tonight. I’d love to see the Jones/Trinidad fight, but don’t think anyone is getting it. I’ll see it when HBO shows it next weekend, I imagine.

Anyway, more later. If my eyes are open!

Good ending…

January 12, 2008

So, started back into the gym Wednesday and went twice (Thursday I spent the time climbing and hiking to do photos, so got some cardio that way).

Friday was pushing it!

I did some pretty intense cardio on a bike and elliptical machine. That felt real good. Did a bunch of lifting, too. Like I’ve said before, it’s funny that it seems so hard for me to go — because when I get there I really get into it and enjoy it. Which is how exercise and working out should be.

Also, the lack of time I’m spending online isn’t bothering me, which is good. I have enough time to chat with a few friends, check all the blogs in my Google Reader and move on.

Going to shoot more photos Saturday with Dylan. I have to say this, too — it’s a lot easier to get out and shoot when you have a friend or two willing to go shoot as well. It’s more fun to bounce around to place to place and see a person’s different perspective on something. (If you haven’t checked his site out, make sure you do — he does some nice work!)

Also approaching a milestone on the photo blog and really need to plan something for next Saturday to post. Argh! So little time!

Photos and all

January 11, 2008

Good photo day. Went with Darren and did a bit of hiking and climbing. Seems like whenever I go on a photo day with Darren, we find out way into more fields, briers, rocks, hills and having to walk/hike/and climb to things than when I go with anyone else.

Ahh well, it’s all good. A good day of exercise and an even better day of photos. Keep peeking the photoblog in the upcoming days and weeks to see what I have in store.

Cripes, just realized I’m coming upon a milestone post on that blog, too. Better get cracking on something!

I’m trying to talk Darren into getting a Flickr account or maybe setting him up a photoblog here on the HooHaa Network. Hopefully we can get him into it as he has an interesting eye when he shoots photos and it would be nice to see him posting his images on a daily or at least regular basis!

More later!

Not bad, not bad at all

January 10, 2008

So after a full day under me after getting back to working out, I have to say it wasn’t too bad. I felt good, decently refreshed. Now, as long as I can get myself into that routine, I think I’ll be OK and hopefully will be able to stick with it this time!

That’s the plan, anyway!

Day off today, so the plan is to, again, work out, then go and shoot some photos. Looks like I’ll be shooting solo, so just going to seek out a few things that I spotted today. Maybe check out one set of falls someone pointed me toward this evening. Apparently, they are pretty nice.

Speaking of photos, I need to get a couple photos queued up on the photo blog.

So the more I talk with people, however, is the more I find out how many sweet waterfalls are apparently around here. So I’m going to get searching and see what I can find. For those of you who aren’t too into nature and such, waterfalls really are amazing and I encourage you to check them out!

iPod update: So I’ve opted to get my new iPod via Amazon, for the following reasons:

  • The iPod is $20 cheaper on Amazon.
  • There is free shipping.
  • They give you $15 worth of free downloads.
  • No tax.

Sounds like good enough reasons to me. So I first have to order a gift card with the one gift Mastercard I got for Christmas, then order it. Ahh, saving money when you spend money… excellent!

More later!

I wrote this about Sam Nader during a public celebration of his 100th birthday. I'm sure I'll have something more in the next day or so as well, but this covers a lot about my thoughts of this amazing man. RIP, Sam. You'll be missed.
