New Camera

Today we acquired a new Sony digital camera and we'll be putting to the test. It's stuffed with a a 1 gig memory card, so rest assured we'll be snapping off a lot of shots. I've already tried the mpeg function and the resolution trumps the old digital camera hands-down. As of right now we're prepping for the 4th of July festivities that will be taking place in the back yard. Apart from the usual gluttony and unabashed consumption of nonalcoholic beverages, we'll entertain lively conversation, volley a ball without actually playing volleyball, and feed the koi for all to watch and wonder. Unfortunately, the whole family won't be here. The eldest brother and his beloved wife shall be hopping around the Philippines for the next couple of weeks. We are anxiously awaiting their return. In the mean time, as opposed to the nice time, I shall enjoy a much deserved 3 days off from work. Such time off will prove beneficial for I do plan to rest, read, relax, and enjoy the company of my children.
