Prepping for the Holidays....

So, as I'm getting ready for the holidays and my family's London vacation, I finally remember to transfer all my pictures from my camera's memory cards to the portable hard drive via the computer. This is a task I always forget. Not sure why. Hum? Maybe it's my age and I'll still think I can just go buy extra 35mm film.

Anyway, I never seem to remember this and as I'm traveling I'm forced to be very selective in my picture taking because I'm limited in my memory space. This stinks because I like to take at least 25-50 of these every time I visit Cabo San Lucas....


and one of these every time Ben tolls.





I can take 200 pictures of seals sun bathing at Fisherman's Wharf and forty pictures of the Golden Gate engulfed in fog. I justify this camera abuse utilizing the "artistic license" card. Maybe the light will be different 20 seconds from now or the seal blinked. For whatever reason, this strikes me as funny. If I was really still buying 35mm film, this foolish pleasure would never happen.


Happy Holidays!
