Whew! I'm beat.

Spent the weekend trying out my new camera. Not so happy with the results. All auto settings which I had hoped would do better for me. I can use manual, but in a pinch, you want to know auto is there for you. I was looking for a small digital with good HD video capability I can keep in my purse. My SLR is not a grab&go ya know? The one used in the pics above is a Nikon  Coolpix S8000 with a not so little price tag of $300. I have two weeks to return &/or exchange. Will continue to play with it for a few days. Anyone have any suggestions? Do you have one and love it? Hate it? What small digital do you have (if any)?

How R U ?

Driving down a highway I have never traveled before I was completely taken by the view of this brilliant old sign on a little old building. I believe the property was once a gas station
or fix-it shop of sorts. Now it sits alone on the outskirts of town
acting as a storage shed of sorts. Four letters stand proudly at the top.

These two made me think of you! How R U ?
Have you traveled off the beaten path lately?
Changed things up in life? Gone on any adventures?
Captured any treasure? Do tell!
