    You just went in debt!!! Big time!!!

    On the upside, looks like you make some great choices there with your lens selections. Top of the line glass!

    Congratulations, and enjoy your new gear!

    Thanks everyone. I'm very excited.
    It will be like christmas soon. But Brown Santa has been delayed because B&H does like the fact that I only have a cell phone. I'm glad they check, but it would have been nice to have been told I needed to provide extra info. when I placed the order.

    Good thing work is somewhat flexiable so I could come home and email them a jpg of my utility bill.

    bad thibg thogh is it's a lock that I won't get my stuff untill after my trip this weekend to Taos and next week to Washington state. Oh well.


    now that I'm starting a real job and moving to N. England from N, Mexico I need this camera to keep me sain. =)

    Congratulations
    A Digital Rebel kit ust showed up here today. And one our sales team, Forrest, might have a Mark II waiting for him at home.

    I've got nothing but envy :p

    yeah but Forrest doesn't pay retail for anything, so....
    you should take his prototype V10 for a while.


    At least you've gotten to play with the Drebel and that digial Lieca.

    I saw you were thinking about Durango this summer? I'm gonna miss it with the move to Mass. I was going to hit you up for a Press pass for Mt. Snow. But now I see I'll miss that one too.

    Oh well I guess I'll have to wait until next year.

    Wow, big dent in the old cc, but I'm sure you're going to love those lenses. You're leaving those clear, blue, huge skies of NM for snow, sleet, humidity, and all the other stuff here in the northeast? Good luck with your job.

    Nothing against NE
    But if there were a job here I'd stay.

    I am looking forward to seeing everythng NE has to offer.

    Brian.....suggestion
    Brian,
    Would you consider calling B&H and explaining that they held your stuff up.....etc....and ask if they would give you a good price on overnight shipping? It's worth a "shot." :D

    Oh yes he does.
    There are probably about 20 people who can get a deal on the Mark II. Forrest paid full price - including tax! Anyway, he just called me and said it was there when he got home. He's like a giddy little girl.

    You're moving to Taxachussets, huh? Where? Will you be there for the Boston Gathering?

    I'll work in Billerica
    I don't know where i'm going to live. I've located apartments around Nashua, NH and Tewksbury, MA. I have no idea which is better. I'll have to travel for work and I'm leaning twoards fling out of Manchester instead of Logan.

    No i won't be there for this gatheribg, but I'll force them, to hold another when I do get there.

    Congrats!!
    That is some list!!! Awesome gear there. Just one thing, you forgot to order my Nikkor 70-200m VR and Sigma 12-24 EX, plus my SB-800.
    Oh well, maybe you just overlooked it. Next time, right? :D
