I've kinda been on a blogging hiatus. My camera has become terribly inconvenient. THe door to the 4 batteries has finally broken. I have been able to rig it closed for about a year now, but no more. in order to take the picture of my last blog I had to hold the batteries in place, adjust the zoom, and push the button at the same time; all while holding the camera. Let's just say it's tricky and no fun. I spoke with Santa and mentioned the problem. ;)
