Today we went back to Wal-Mart, i returned the keychain camera and bought a real camera, a samsung s630. 6 megapixel, 2.5' lcd screen, advanced shake reduction are the features it brags about right on the camera, and it is better than the camera i left at home, for $100! i didn't get an sd memory card for it cuz i have one at home, and i figured i'd be uploading my pix daily to my computer. the default size of pix on this camera meant it only had room for 8, but i changed it to the smallest size available, 1024x___ i always forget the 2nd number, so now it holds 42 pics. i spent the afternoon figuring out how to use the camera; luckily it has an auto mode that allows me to use it for regular pictures without thinking much about it. This software installed on the first try! and when the camera is plugged in to my puta, it becomes a drive letter so the pix can be accessed without any additional software.
We also went shopping at a Florida department store called Beall's. their logo has a bell in the middle that looks like an A so i always wanted to pronounce it "be-alls" but would get corrected "bells" so looking for it on the web i was surprised it really does have an A in it. i found a shirt i actually liked better than the shirt mom bought for my birthday the other day at dillard's at the mall, so it was agreed she'd buy this shirt for me and give the dillard's shirt to chuck's father ed who was turning 85 on sunday.
sadly, since my last vacation here 15 months ago, chuck's mother marcine had passed away, at the age of 81, and her absence is keenly felt.In the evening Dad goes to bed early so he can be up for his weekly observation patrol, late-night friday/early saturday 1-4a. i watched my usual friday night tv shows, ghost whisperer, close to home, and numb3rs.
