Were they in your yard? Last year, we had a family of 10 turkeys who would wander through ours pretty regularly, but I haven't seen them lately Fun to see them up close, though. :) -c On Thu, Oct 3, 2013 at 2:57 PM, Paul Stenquist pnstenqu...@comcast.net wrote:

K-30 vs K-50 vs....?

Hi all, A friend of mine has been looking for counsel on cameras... He is a fellow hockey (and soccer and football) parent, whose ps isn't getting the job done, and is ready to move up to a dslr. He has been looking at the Nikon Pentax offerings primarily, and seems to be settling on Pentax.

PESO: Real Games

Hi, Several months ago, I heard from a youth hockey program in Minnesota, asking to use one of my images in an ad campaign that they were developing... It was a photo of my daughter from my (long-neglected) blog, taken a few years ago... Anyway, they sent me the ad recently... Nothing fancy, but

Thanks, Bruce, Don, John, Stan Attila... It is gratifying to have the image used for good...! John, I don't think I ever shared this shot as a peso, but maybe... you have certainly seen her in other photos, though. :) On Thu, Sep 19, 2013 at 4:11 PM, Attila Boros attila.p...@gmail.com wrote:

Ugh. My condolences. Our dog has had the same bad luck, a few times... the hydrogen peroxide/baking soda/detergent mixture does the trick for us... though I think you are supposed to let it sit for several minutes before rinsing. Bathing a cat has its own challenges, I imagine... good luck if
