Multiple Pictures taken with the Canon today. Evitt’s Mountain is an insane hike, but the telephoto gave us some nice piccies. Enjoy!

Day 2 – Canon Pics + Google Earth Track

inanis — Tue, 12 Oct 2010 01:37:38 +0000

Here’s some pictures from my Canon – Potomac State Forest. A couple of these shots used the new 70-300 telephoto/macro combo lens. Enjoy!

First, here’s the Google Earth KML file of our walk… [download] … seems like the Droid’s GPS is a little out of whack. No cell service up there either. None. Nada. Nil. I couldn’t even data roam and have a map at half the speed of smell. Oh well, the nature was beautiful, so I got over it.

Next, here’s some piccies!

Day 2 – Droid Pics

Here’s some pictures from my Droid – Potomac State Forest.

Let me tell you – when they say the 3.5 mile hike takes 3.5 hours, they’re not kidding. The ibuprofen has it’s work cut out for it tonight.

Pretty. Vacation is under way.

To the mountains again…

It’s time for another fall trip to the mountains. It’s going to be great because I am going to have more than just a couple of days to trudge over rocks, through woods and in swamps.

I am going to take a chunk of tech with me: the laptop, the Droid, my TrackStick, and maybe the Flip Video.

The coolest piece of tech though, has to be the Canon DSLR – just got a telephoto/pseudo-macro combo lens, new tripod and carry case for it all today. Maybe I’ll be able to get some nice far off pictures of things in valleys, or some close ups of butterflies.

Have fun while I’m gone – I will.

Music On The Levee

Just a quick update: heard a great 20s music concert here in Davenport IA tonight. Not usually my kind of music, but the band played exceptionally. It was super fun. Videos to come later…

UPDATE: Video!

Riverside, Iowa

Yes, I went there. Yes, I took pictures. Yes, I am a Trek fan. Even cooler than being there – running into other fans from New York passing through, making the same impromptu unlikely pilgrimage.

Otherwise, I’m just having fun in Davenport, Iowa. Old music, easier times. Away from work. *breathe*
