Shane Conder's Whateveritis of Nothing

Sitting in a cabin by the lake... watching TV... typing this blog entry.  I have blogged once, twice now, in months.  I'm not quite as used to it as I was.  I haven't really had time to read any lately, either.  And when I have had a few minutes, I've found that so many of the blogs have changed substantially or gone away since I was reading them... and that was only months ago.

We're days away from headin out on the longest vacation either of us have ever taken.  I've been really busy at work and it's been very draining on me so I haven't been doing nearly enough to get us ready for the upcoming trip.  In fact, I've done almost nothing.  Well, if you count doing things like ordering Canon 30Ds and our Dell XPS M1210 that I'm typing on now, then I've helped a little.

Now, this probably won't be posted for a while because of security concerns over this trip.  We're heading off to some countries where we could run in to some trouble.  Virtually none of the countries we're going to are all that safe.

In addition to having to delay post things, there have also been a number of events lately that I haven't been able to blog about for one reason or another.  And, well, I still can't. 

We sold off both of our digital cameras recently.  We had an original Canon Digital Rebel (300D) and the Canon 20D.  We replaced both with new Canon 30Ds.  The Canon 30D has basically the same sensor as the 20D, but has a better screen on it, finer ISO controls, and selectable frame rate.  It also seems a little bigger and heavier.  But aside from that, it's virtually the same.  This is great because now Laurie and I don't have to bicker about which camera we're going to use.  Of course if we program our names into the camera we'll have to have something external to be able to tell the cameras apart now. ;)
