Sure hope you guys had a great Thanksgiving Weekend, mine was fantastic.  My son Scott, his wife Diane, and their children, (well young adults), Ben and Hannah came up from Saint Augustine to join all the rest of our family for 4 days of great fellowship together!  We had a great time, we don’t get to do that more than a couple of times a year, so it was really special for Sherelene and I!  I pray you had a wonderful time with your families as well!!

Come on guys let’s get real!!!!!!!

 

I was listening to Mike & Mike this morning while running some errands and couldn’t believe a story they ran.  It seems that when Auburn upset Alabama in the big game Saturday and the Alabama kicker missed three critical field goals, that fans sent ugly, nasty, demeaning tweets to him.  I agree with Mike & Mike that this is disgusting, shameful behavior by people that are supposed to be adults!  Hey i’m a Bama fan and I was disappointed but, “Knock, knock” it’s a game!!!!!!  When is our society going to learn to take things that aren’t that serious, less seriously, and start taking things that are really serious, seriously!!!  Come on guys, get a life…….

Winter Clearance!

 

It’s that time of year when I keep a promise to myself.  Photography gear is to be used not placed on the shelf.  So I have several things that are not being used anymore, so for the bargain hunters out there, first emails accepting any of these offers will get stuff shopped out, I can take credit cards over the phone, if interested.  I’ve tried to price mine as good values based on used prices on ebay and at B&H.

 

 

I have a 16-35 f4 AF-S VR  in Mint condition with caps and hood for $850.

 

 

My 24-120 AF-S VR f4 lens is Mint minus and I’m asking $800.  complete will all caps and hood.

 

 

I also have a 60mm Micro Nikkor f 2.8 AF, the older, sharper version in Excellent Condition.     Asking $300.

 

 

 

I just recently purchased the new Fuji XE-2 and have  my X-E1 Black body in mint condition, up for sale, box, and all, mint condition,   $400.  

Paid $1,000. just 9 months ago!  Has very latest firmware.

 

 

Well guys, first come first serve, via email.

 

Probably more clearance items to come!

 

Blessings,

    Bill, you might not want to get into too big a hurry to unload the X-E1. Your RRS L-Plate + grip won’t fit the X-E2 properly. RRS is working on the replacement but until then if you have tripod work to do you might want the X-E1. That said, $400 is a great price on a fantastic camera!

        I’ve heard of Vikingsholm and have wanted to visit but we haven’t been to Tahoe in years. Sugar Pine snuods wonderful and hopefully we can have time to do some sightseeing away from the slopes on our next visit. Thanks for sharing the links.

      Love the photos! I’ve only ever seen Boldt Castle from the water I went to scoohl in nearby Kingston. I haven’t been back for many years and with a reunion coming up I’ve been thinking of taking my kids for a visit. They would love to visit this castle!
