    Just that the Pass is only open for like 3 months of the year. I believe there's vehicle length restrictions & once on the Canadian side, all the trees are bent not from the wind but the from the people hanging on! Too much to see, too much to list, just explore, man!

    It's true.. 18hr is a long drive. I have done it to get where I need to go quick.

    Thank you.


    Is that a different shot or did that tree limb fall on the truck?

    Sorry for the delayed replys work is picking up and getting crazy hours.

    If you had money to make/modify something for your truck what would it be?

    Sometime my brain wanders. Also we can always discuss crazy things and theories. No harm here to discuss ideas and ask questions.

    This is probably the nicest post I have ever seen here. Congrats on the amicable divorce! Those are the best!!! Great photos as well. I can relate in more than one way: My wonderful ex wife is best friends with my current wife and a godmother to our daughter, I have the Sr 4x4 manual 4 banger with just a few tasteful upgrades and I recently bought a Ricoh GRII to get more serious about taking pictures:))) Nice to meet you Sil!

    I watched Shameless, no family situation is like "normal". Not since days like this. But, with Christmas impending, need some advice to buy camera equipment. Just sayin'

    Shameless is a good show.

    Check out B&H that is where I did my research then, I look up forums and find problems. I repeat the process until I think I have found the right one. What kind of camera are you looking for?

    Sorry, B & H?. My last "good" camera was a Cannon FTB with Tamron Lenses. Stollen, never replaced. Bag 'n all. I think now is the time technology has maybe caught up to price. What do you think?

    Thank you. That is good that you came out the same on the divorce situation. What kind of pictures do you like to take? Oh and good taste in trucks. :)

    Sorry, B&H is a large photography store in NY that sells a lot of cameras and accessories. They have used cameras and lens as well.

    That stinks about the theft. Camera tech seems to change as frequently as the cell phone. As soon as you buy one, they come out with a better one the next year. The one I bought was a year and a half old and bought it with one lens. It has its small problems, so I learned to fix it and it works great for me.

    It shoots slow, not fast, but has a high MegaPixel. Sony A7r with 55mm prime lens.

    Hey, thanks for the info. Much appreciated. What about compatibility with the good o'l PC. Met a lot of graphic artists that all use Mac based stuff. Are Cameras like that too? Apple or windows specific?

    The computer boils down to personal preference and ease of use. I am still using a Mac mini that is 5 years old. I do not do a lot of photo editing, but that is where your computer will do the most work.

    Thanks Sil, think I'm leaning toward the Sony brand. Easier to point out in a line-up if it's stollen again, Lol! Looks a little more rugged too. I'm assuming they still make their own stuff. Still chuckling about that old add, "Sony, when you want to be Alony", Lol. Again much appreciated.
