Well, we finally closed on the house, after 2 days of putting out fires, on Thursday afternoon about 3pm...whew...I think loan companies love to see borrowers jump through hoops!!! But it's finally ours...pics will follow with my final purchase of this week...to follow...
Today, the wife and I paid bills, went grocery shopping and restocked all the bare cupboards, and went partial Christmas shopping. My christmas gift.....a Sony DRX-810UL DVD+/-R 16X DVD recorder (to store all my pics on from my new camera, to follow)...My wifes gift, so far, has been the new Civilization IV game ( which I will probably get more use out of...hahaha). Well, while looking at the various DVDR's, the games, and the cameras on display...she slipped...and said...while I was looking at the Canon S2 IS, "I'll buy that for you, but not the big one (meaning a DSLR). We were at Best Buy and they were out of stock, so, I came home, with her statement reeling in my head and began researching, browsing, dreaming, debating, debauchering...oops...no not that one...it comes later!!! hahaha...
Anyway...after many hours of racking the brain, I accidentally stumbled onto the Ritz Camera site...and lo and behold....The Nikon Coolpix 8400....$399.00!!! That's $500.00 off!!! Well, a quick post here, a quick email to Photo John and an equally quick reply from him.......and I'm now sitting on pins and needles waiting for the delivery truck!!!! I also got a 1Gig Lexar Professional Series 80X CF Mem. card...I will be looking into more accessories as soon as the wallet heals up a bit...hehe...Guess I now have to join the Nikon Samurai's.....hehehe...but I'm definitely keeping my Kodak!!!!!!
The End!!! hehehe
