On Friday morning I went down to the lake in thick fog and wound up getting stuck in the mud … That was at about 9am. I was towed out by the AAA by 11:30. I actually loved every minute of it. Oh, I forget, because I was more than 50 feet off the road I got charged $150 for my free tow. And I loved that too. Honest. I have been feeling so good lately that I swam a slow mile — 88 lengths, in my quite comfortable pool in the late afternoon. <\/p>\n
Right after my swim I headed down to the lake to get right back on the horse :). I did stay well back from the lakeshore. How was my luck? Totally amazing. I can hardly wait to share some totally new dime a dozen images. I wake early tomorrow to meet Clemens van der Werf to try out his new boat on Lake Blue Cypress. <\/p>\n
Right now it is looking as if the 5D Mark IV User’s Guide will be in the BAA Online Store available for purchase on Tuesday, December 26, 2017. <\/p>\n
More than a few folks over the past few days have sent requests for their free copy of the 5D Mark IV Guide along with their B&H receipts. When I searched my account by their order number, there was no record of the transaction. When I asked them about it, it turned out that either they made a phone order and never mentioned BIRDS AS ART (please remember, web orders only), or that they simply had not used a BAA affiliate link<\/em><\/strong>. Please remember to make all of your B&H purchases by starting with the generic Photo Gear and More<\/em> B&H logo link on the top right of each blog page, or to use a product-specific or to e-mail<\/a> for one and then click on that. Using these links won’t cost you one penny more and are the best way to thank me for the work that I put into the blog and the time I spend answering your queries via e-mail. Using my Amazon links helps too. All of your efforts are appreciated. <\/p>\n If you have sent me a FB friends request that has gone unrequited, it is because I am up to the 5,000 limit on my personal FB page. You are invited to click here<\/a> and then Like and Follow the identical content. \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n Today makes one hundred forty-seven days in a row with a new educational blog post! With all the new used gear — how’s that for an oxymoron? — this blog post took about five hours to prepare. With all of my upcoming free time (or not …), the plan right now is to break the current record streak of 480 … Good health and good internet connections willing. <\/p>\n Booking.Com came through for me twice again recently with both the DeSoto Fall IPT and next July’s UK Puffins, Gannets, and Bempton Pre-trip room reservations. And all the rates were great. If you’d like to give Booking.Com a shot, click here<\/a> and you will earn a $25 reward. Thanks to the many who have already tried and used this great service. <\/p>\n
