A blog about our road trips on Route 66, Lincoln Highway, St. Louis, New York, Michigan, etc. (we have been to 37 States, 13 more to visit), about my love of hockey (NHL), football (NFL), coming to America, growing up in Viet Nam, humor that ain't funny and still a lot of ramblings!
Oh, the wonder of digital camera! With a 2GB SanDisk, I kept clicking away images, from different angels, of the pear trees lining the streets, more trees bursting with colorful flowers at the park, close-up photos under the umbrella of the flowers, against the blue sky, knowing that I have the luxury of keeping only those I like. No more incurring expense of developing negatives, not even printing (I don't remember that last time I printed copies of photos taken). These are a few photos I took last Sunday of the beautiful blue sky, the trees and the white blanket of flowers, and it was a comfortable sunny day to be outdoor. I used the sort-of new Canon camera my husband gave me last Christmas. I still have yet learned the touch screen feature. (Qaptain Qwerty knows I am slow when it comes to hi-tech stuff. Yet, surprisingly I am impressed with the iPad and actually considering getting one!)
Thanks, Qap, for your kind comment. I am glad that I am just an "average consumer"! I believe in "keep it simple", don't need to make it so fancy and complicating. Incidentally, I was getting ready to write about keeping photos on CDs because my dear husband kept his photos on the hard drive and his computer crashed earlier this week - God bless its soul - not sure how much the tech person would be able to recover - will keep you updated. It is sunny today and we have plans to enjoy the good weather before it gets humid! Have a good weekend, TOTA - the average consumer in St. Louis :)

Cameras these days are nice, just be sure to have copies of them. I think you always put the photos on CDs so that's a good strategy.
I think the iPad would work for you. It's not advanced enough for the geeks but for the average consumer it should work well.
