Tuesday February 26/13  update #376

Bella was cooking up a storm today, so much so that she emptied another of the propane tanks so she had to switch tanks with the hot water.

I started researching for a zoom lens to complement the lens I have which is woefully inadequate in the field.  I can find a decent lens for about $200, but now need to find a way to raise the $200.

I slipped downtown to see if the Canon dealer here had any lenses, and he does have a few, but they are pricey compared to online.

I then stopped at the Fuji store to check out their prices for photo prints and they are quite reasonable.  I have a few things in mind that will require some printing.

We had another Hearts Of Gold Foundation meeting today at 2:30 and it was very productive.   We had some new volunteers that will contribute greatly to the organization of the next fundraiser.  Sheryle Verkley joined us as one of the founders of HoG and she is great to organize and focus the team.  I volunteered to be the Admin person for the silent auction, which I assume means I am the collator of all the information, etc.   It will be an interesting few weeks.

I am still playing with the new camera and its functions and trying to get a rhythm in the RAW processing.   I have a lot to learn yet.

That was today’s excitement.   Hugs to all.    Please see all new photos at http://souvenircuenca.blogspot.com/
