Lucy is on Her Way!

Well, thank you, all of you who did, for the prayers for the recovery of my camera. Alas, I think she is gone for good. I am not sure of the purpose in things like this, in losing a camera due to sheer stupidity, other than learning to be more careful. However, I did take the time away from access to a fine camera to take stock a little about why I take pictures, to put into proper perspective the rearranging of pixels. I do not think my perspective was too much out of whack, but it was good to be reminded that all good gifts are on loan to us and that my significance comes from quite another Source than catching images, however lovely or true they may be.

Thank you also, friends, who have offered me loans of your cameras. That was very sweet. And special thanks to the friend who anonymously replaced one of the 5 or so CD's that were also tucked into my camera bag.

So, I briefly considered getting an upgrade, but the price was still hard to beat on my previous camera. And, so, in a week or so Gomer's sister, Lucy, will be here in all her glory. And, then, the romance will begin again.

I'm glad Lucy will come soon! We all miss your pictures.

Hopefully, Lucy will be faithful! I'm positive she'll show you some wondrous sights...

Cheers. That's splendid news! I really am sorry such a tragedy had to color the trip. I finally got some of the pics up from the weekend (I'm sure yours would have been posted both more speedily and with more pizazz)...

Great Ange I look forward to seeing them! Hooray for Lucy! Like the Narnian Lucy? If so, the name is quite applicable. Applicable in the sense that she will be led to see and tell of beautiful and bizarre places.
