Good news on two fronts...

[schrackman]

make that three...first, I got my Macintosh back up running but found out that one of my two hard drives crashed. I'm taking it in tomorrow and hoping that they'll be able to save the data and install it onto a new hard drive. Fortunately, my internet and email are on the volume that works so I'm able to post tonight.

Secondly, there's a possibility I might become a photo stringer for a small local newspaper called The Acorn. They pay $30 per job, at two or three job batches at a time, and they can work around my schedule. They said they will take a look at my online gallery and let me know. Naturally, it's not the money but the experience that will be a plus in my book. So I'm really hoping they'll call me and add me on.

Third, I bought my daughter a Rebel Ti body today and added to it a Sigma AF 28-80 Mini Zoom Macro lens (just like mine). Just in time for our vacation that's coming a week and a half from now. She's been needing a really good film camera and is jazzed now that she has one. I'm looking forward to posting some of her pictures, or having her post them, after we get back from vacation.
