Photo op
Don't you just hate it when you have the perfect photo op and you're stuck with a not so great camera. My wife and i took a week off and went to Inks Lake State Park here in Texas, about 60 miles west of Austin. We rented a cabin there. One morning when i got up there was an incredible sun rise. I grabbed her camera to take some pics. Well they were pretty disapointing to say the least. This was the only one worth saving. Anyway, if any of you guys ever get a chance to get up that way, make sure you take a drive down 29 between Burnet and Buchanan Dam. It's a great four lane black-topped road (2 lanes each way). It' 9 miles of hills and big sweeping turns. It's the most fun i've ever had driving the car. Oh yeah, the pic.

Even if that was the only pic you thought worth saving, it is a very good one. Sometimes it just works out that way.
