Not much to "write home or anywhere else" about here lately. Just a lot of working. I'm sitting here now downloading a "book on tape" onto my Ipod Shuffle. ( That's the small....simple version of an Ipod)
It will hold about 9 hours worth of music or book on tape. I can usually get a whole book on it.
I listen to my radio earphones during the mornings, but, switch over to my book on tape during the afternoon and evening work sessions.
The "bitter half" hates the thing, because I can't hear her if she hollars for me to "go fetch her something".
Last week I dropped by the camers shop to "price out" a new zoom lens for my Canon Rebel XT digital camera. My old regular camera had a 50 -200 zoom which I really missed.
Well, I was able to get a new 70-300 zoom for $200. Now, all I need is time to go out and shoot something with it!
TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS IS ALL!?!? Amazing.
ReplyDeleteI like the books to play on my laptop while I'm workin. Ear plugs pop out of my ears and headphones are too 70's lol. 70-300? Can it take down ah deer? Jist joshin ya.
ReplyDeleteI've been a bit of a holdout on the issue of audiobooks until fairly recently. I use an MP3 download service (MP3 Rocket) which offers audiobooks in that format and the titles I've found there are fairly impressive. Problem is, they take forever to download, so I haven't done much in that area.
ReplyDeleteSince I'm not heavily into photography, I'm guessing the price you got on that lens is a good one. Hope you get some great shots with it and we'll get to see the results soon!
Good luck!
