Howdy everybody!!

We are tired, but excited. We will be into Denver tomorrow night, and we are staying with my brother. I have gotten a flood of Big Tent email tonight, since I have been away from the internet since Tuesday morning. Yikes!

Looking forward to start posting Saturday night into Sunday, with photos of course. Monday morning will be hectic but exciting.

Vivian, Call me if you need anything, I am serious. If you want to get together Sunday, let me know. I will be downtown picking up my credential anytime after 10 on Sunday.

Have fun, girl. You deserve it. Take lots of pictures and don’t hold nothin’ back.

I don’t want to carry around a whole lot of gear nor do I want to look like a geek

You realized that the rest of your post pretty much contradicted that statement, right? :)

I made a real effort to only buy things that could be recharged via USB. Not always possible (see, e.g., my SLR), but it sure has simplified my power issues (of the AC and DC sort, anyway).

Looking forward to see how that vidcam works out.

The Kodak came with rechargeable AA batteries and a charger, plus I have more. A cigarette charger won’t work for me: I won’t have a car :( I’m taking all wall chargers for everything.

Now if I traveled a lot, I’d have one of those multiple charger thingees.

I take a lot of pictures and cameras are battery drainers. Take several rechargeable batteries and a battery charger with you. I like the Energizer 15 minute charger. It’s lightweight, comeswith a cigarette lighter plug, and it’s been a lifesaver. I got mine at BestBuy!

Glad that you are going as my representative. Have fun!
BS
