Thank You Very Much

Coon · November 30, 2006, 09:39:21 PM

I would like to thank everyone who has been involved in sending me the box within a box. I love the digital camera I received from all of you very generous people here on the forum. It is very hard to express in words other than a ver big thank you from all of my family and the pictures to come.

Brad, Marilyn, and Brandon.

The biggest thing is to learn how to put the pics into my gallery and to post them.

Gonna have to do some learning I see. ;D

Well, are you going to show us a picture of the camera? Not the box , the camera.
By using a mirror with the flash off you will be able to get a reversed picture of the camera . Then using the computer, reverse the picture back to the correct view. Or you could use another camera to take a picture of the new camera. ;)

We'll all have to go back to school learnin for that procedure ;D ;D I understood it through the first sentence anyway. Will work on the other two or three later.

sprucebunny · November 30, 2006, 10:02:10 PM

You're welcome, Brad.

Hope the computer behaves for you.

Yup, now you got to learn to post pictures ;D I'm sure looking forward to them 8)

This was Sprucebunny's idea. If you wonder what the spirit of the Forestry Forum looks like, this is a pretty good example. She's never met Brad or his family, but saw a need and went out of her way to help. Real friends are priceless.

Well Coon, .......... where's those pics? 8) 8) 8)

Coon · December 01, 2006, 01:10:08 AM

Well I think I got the pic posting all figured out now. Just need some more practice doing it. I started a topic in Sawmills and Milling if you would like to see some of the pics I got finished with. There are also others in my gallery.

Brad.

SwampDonkey · December 01, 2006, 04:37:56 AM

Brad, I don't think ya have enough snow yet. ;D :D

Enjoy the new camera.

Coon · December 01, 2006, 09:40:22 AM

What are you talking about Swamp? That's not snow. That's igloo building material.

OneWithWood · December 01, 2006, 10:05:38 AM

You will, of course, be posting pics of that igloo you are about to build :D

Coon · December 01, 2006, 10:14:48 AM

OWW, the snow hasn't hardened up enough yet but yeah I'll see what I can do. I think you had better come help. We have enough material to build a whole town. :D :D :D

Brad.

OneWithWood · December 01, 2006, 10:28:40 AM

It's not that I would not love to come up and lend a hand (I've always wanted to check out Saskatchewan) but I must keep my beloveds greenhouses warm during the winter so travelling is an unlikely event. I will have to watch and enjoy from afar . . .

DoubleD · December 01, 2006, 02:32:32 PM

People you are great smiley_applause

Brad enjoy your new cam 8) 8) 8)

SwampDonkey · December 01, 2006, 04:32:30 PM

Blame the ~~snow princess~~ errmm spruce bunny for this one. ;D 8)

sprucebunny · December 01, 2006, 06:42:56 PM

Snow princess ??? :D :D :D :D :D :D I do love snow but I'm pretty far from 'princess' ..... unless they have grease on them and always have a chain saw with them :D :D :D

Give extra thanks to Woodbowl and all the friendly members here for making this scheme work ;) smiley_clapping

This is a great forum with genuine and caring people and it was alot of fun to get a bunch of members involved in a project that benefitted another member and the forum. Thanks, everyone 8) 8)

SwampDonkey · December 01, 2006, 07:22:56 PM

:D :D I was thinking grease monkey....but :

:D :D

Coon · December 02, 2006, 09:44:45 AM

Guess what everyone???? I got bit by a snow snake yesterday and it hurt. No I didn't get a pic cuz the batteries were dead in the cam in the morning. (I forgot to shut the camera off after I transferred pics to the puter.) Just had some cheapo AA batteries here that wouldn't even power up the cam properly. Can't get out of the yard again for that igloo material keeps falling out of the sky and the wind keeps blowing from the east filling our driveway. :(

sprucebunny · December 02, 2006, 12:25:34 PM

I hope your bite gets better quick smiley_sick !!!!

Ya ... I meant to mention that the 2 battery cameras seem to use batteries fast even when you remember to turn them off ;D

A recharger and the batteries are available everywhere for $15-20 and they are really worth it ;) So the next time you get out of the house...

I keep a couple small lantern-type lights around for when the power goes out that take the AA batteries. Makes the recharger well worth it.

SwampDonkey · December 02, 2006, 02:02:30 PM

I do the same as sprucebunny, I use rechargeables and these ones I have can take 1000 charges. They last a lot longer than regular alkalines. If I go on a trip I can use an inverter to charge the batteries through the aux/cig. port or take the charger in a hotel. This new fandangled car shuts all power off to the aux when the key is off. I guess it's to save absent minded folks from leaving power on for days unattended and loosing battery charge. :
