I’m getting ready to hit the road again…Thursday morning I’ll be starting out on my annual Nevada & Mojave trip. I have a lot of interesting places I’m hoping to visit (mines, mining camps, etc.) I don’t know how many of them I’ll actually be able to cram into a five-day trip. I also plan to do a lot more video this time, and have some fun new photographic equipment to play with too.
Looking forward to the coming production, Ray. Enjoy your trip and be safe.
Thanks! I made it back OK. Returned home late in the day on July 30th. Saw, and photographed, lots of great stuff. Came home with 238 gigabytes of photos and video! Needless to say, it’s going to take me a little while to go through everything and get it edited and posted.
Glad you had a great adventure and returned safely, Ray. 238 GB, wow, that’s what, about 50 or so 2hr HD movies (https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-surprised.gif)I‘m gonna need lots more popcorn (https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-wink.gif)
