I have a quick question. I am hooked up with a Verizon DSL system with a Actiontec router (which is theirs). I have two computers on my home network. I have had this router for quite awhile. Would like to get a new one. Can I just go buy one and replace the Actiontec without disrupting my service with Verizon or do I have to go to Verizon and replace it with one of theirs?. I lose signal once in awhile. Sorry to be so dumb about what seems to be a simple thing but I am thought it is easier to ask the experts.

Thanks for the help.

I just purchased a Samsung Galaxy tab 2 with keyboard and usb connector for $249 (for everything) and has 8G memory and a SD slot for another 32G card. Have't tried it for photos yet but the screen is pretty sharp. The keyboard has a dock for the tab.

Semper Fi!!!! my friend.

Well!! I have done a few things in the hobby field. When I lived up north I had a woodworking shop but no place down here for all the machinery. I have been shooting target archery for over 50 years and am a certified instructor since 1965, and I do genealogy (back to 1541 in France) and photography. I try to keep busy all the time doing one or the other. Having a hobby keeps you young.

I see now that it is advertised on Amazon.

Just beautiful, beautiful, beautiful !!!!!

Just last Sunday my wife and I went to BB to buy a Samsung Galaxy 2 student edition tablet. We were there before the store opened. When we went in we went directly to the computer dept and was asked if they could help us. I told the clerk I wanted 2 of the Samsung Galaxys that were on sale. He said they were locked up becuse they only had a few and would be right back. He came back with one and said that is all he could sell me. I told him I needed two and he said " the manager made a decision that they would only sell one to a customer". I said there was no stipulation in any of their advertisements and Samsung advertisements that it was restricted to one per customer. It only said that it was for two weeks or until gone. I said get me the manager. He came back with the other unit that I requested and said he did me a favor. I told him the only favor he did was save his managers ass. I got my two units. I hope they do go out of business. By the way, the only place I could find selling this package (the unit, Keyboard and USB connection) was BB.

Here is one I captured.

It was darker when I re=did it but it came out here lighter. I took these from a car window in between traffic going buy. Couldn't get out of the car where I was. Wish I had a tripod and really could take my time. I will try and do something with these with my new Corel Paint Shop Pro x4. I'm trying to learn it now.

Thanks for the comments. I agree they need some work.

Here is #2 re-done.

How is this one??

This cart is the replacement cart on this hill in NH as the original was burned awhile ago. When I was visiting my children I was able to get a photo of it.

Great idea! I'm sure I will be able to learn the proper way to process HDR as some of the pictures I've seen are great. Really like the process. Thaank you for starting this.

The swallows were at my daughters house and the turkeys just down the street when were visiting in NH this summer.
