The amazing thing is that in some ways it actually rivals my million dollar Nikon camera! For one thing, it's much easier to carry around.....and I don't live in fear of dropping it (since I can wear it on a little chain around my neck!).......and the pictures are fabulous! (see below). The only draw back so far is that you can't see the photos until you download them (but that's how photography used to be!)....and the battery doesn't seem to last very long. Other than that, I'm lovin' it! And it even shoots video. Too cool!! comments???

But this weekend we wanted to do something entirely different.....so we went hiking! (Yes, that's right, hiking!!) In real life, this is a word that rarely enters our vocabulary. So we drove to Temescal Canyon Park with a goal of hiking to the wooden foot bridge overlooking the falls. Now first of all, let me say that the words "steep" and "gravelly" apply heavily to this trail.....and the word "trickle" applies heavily to the falls. (Note, I have no pictures of the "falls" here.) But we actually had a great time! And in the end I gained fame as the "barefoot hiker!" Due to my history of knee problems, I find it very easy to hike up....but extremely difficult to hike down.....so I take my shoes off. Yes, I know this sounds insane....but I can somehow feel my way along and be more steady if I have bare feet (and I have feet of steel!)...so I hiked most of the mile downhill in bare feet. And let me tell you.....people think you are really strange hiking down a steep gravelly hill with naked feet! But it works for me....and I find it actually much more comfortable than wearing shoes. (I'm just weird that way, ok?) And our reward for the day was ending up at Dukes Barefoot Bar (funny cooincidence on the name there!) where we cooled our heels...and had some exotic cocktails overlooking the picturesque ocean! comments???
