Where have I been?


Wyoming in the winter = fun


Well lets see... After my last update in early January my 5 year old point and shoot camera decided to die. It was a bit weird, but I didn't even think about not taking photos for almost a month. I just sort of forgot about photos. I sorta enjoyed being able to take a look around at everything going by instead of hunting for my camera and focusing on if the camera is setup right and so on... Well, I was home about two weeks ago and I purchased a new camera so I'm back. I splurged just a bit and bought a Canon G10. I had a G2 years ago and man, this G10 is awesome! I'm actually thinking of selling my Nikon D2X Digital SLR since this G10 can do everything that camera can and still fit in my pocket... Also when I was home I was lucky enough to get deathly sick. I haven't been sick in years so I guess it was my time but god sure punished me. I ended up taking a couple more days off at home before coming back out. I then ran from Sacramento (where I live) to LA and then back north to Sacramento, then back south to LA and then Back north to Portland. That was the first week and nothing to exciting to take photos of since I've traveled that route hundreds of times before. Once I got up to portland, I took a quick reset at a friends house and I picked up this load going to Louisville, KY. 2300 miles and I still have 350 to go tomorrow before I arrive at the customer.

These 2300 miles have thrown everything at me. From Clear skies to blizzards and tornado warnings. I've had a little bit of everything thrown at me. Anyways, I decided to switch up how I post photos. Usually I take a few of my favorites and post them up and leave a dozen or sometimes a lot more in my collection... I've changed that up and started a Picasa web photo album. I'll be posting all my photos (this time it's about 30) in a album and putting the link down below. This is the first time I've done this so give me some feedback. It's set to be public so you don't have to be a member to view them. You can also post comments but I'm not sure if you have to be a member or not (if you have a google account, just sign in and you're good). If you're not a memember, why not just sign up so you can post comments on a photo of your choice? I'd love to hear what everyone thinks...

Hi,

I ran across this blog while surfing the web. Nice pics!

So I'm curious, how are you finding the 386? Is it roomy enough? How is it on fuel? Anything you like or dislike about the truck (I'm interested in these things.)

BTW, if you ever get to Montreal there's a great train museum in nearby Delson.
