buying and selling (a previous topic of mine); i think a part of my photography hobby has somehow become buying and selling lenses; although i enjoy testing them out, ultimately i look for deals and usually sell (and i usually make money - cases in point $25 teleconverter sold to someone in england for $140; lens given to me for free because it had some glass fungus (which i fully disclosed to the buyer) sold to someone in australia for $200!) so, one mans junk is another ones treasure.
this leads up to our trip to visit our friends in calgary, and doing some banff/jasper touristing for a few days. I'm finally starting to feel like my camera setup is good, and i'm getting excited about taking photos again. the last thing i want to be able to have with me is a second body, to go with my 6 lens kit.
i was debating whether to drive our crv out there, or take our yaris, but with gas going ever higher the debate is pretty much over. plus, since the yaris is going to need new tires (they're down to under 4/32 tread already at 33K miles, not very good), the difference in gas cost will pretty much buy those tires, so we'll probably put them on early.
not really sure what the point was there.
ok, my dad got his permanent resident card today, which i petitioned for him to get, that went fairly quickly, and didn't require any interviews in person so that is good, now he doesn't have to worry about getting work visas and can live in the US and do whatever he wants (Except vote, which i can now!). nothing else new, hope you enjoyed the clip from the last post!

jamie told me that paul was visiting israel. i thought he meant you! but . . . no, he meant paul mccartney. i was super jealous that he was seeing you in israel, less so when i realized it was a beatle (no offense to beatle lovers).
