Dick Z. from Downers Grove IL
Welcome Dick. I grew up in DeKalb, down the road from you. Decided in 92 I didn't want to die shoveling out my driveway and have been in Austin, TX since. I also took snapshots as a child, but have only gotten more and more serious about photography in the past 10 years or so, move up the food chain through p&s cameras, then super zooms and now a D5200. Looking forward to seeing your images and posts.
Thanks Mr PC. My grandaughter had just moved back from Texas. She didn't like the hot summers and the winter sleet and ice storms. We're happy she's back. We can now watch our 4 great grandchildren grow.
I have a daughter, grandson and grangaughter in texas, near Dallas, she likes it.
Looking forward to seeing your post also.
Ps. I use a snowblower and my wife does the shoveling, she's much younger.

Hi all. I've been reading U.H. for about a year now and thought It's about time to sign in.
I have taken pictures since 11 years of age. Still have the picture I took with a 49 cent camera I purchased at walgreens using a 15 cent roll of 127 film. Yes, I'm very old. I have moved up in all the years to a Canon 60D.
:D
Welcome Dick, just moved to Syracuse from Downers (missing the Mortn Arb). Lived on Kensington Place. Enjoy!
Welcome Dick, most of us here are old too.
