Default Damn! I wish I had my camera!

Years ago,My husband and I were driving home from town.I saw something and told my husband " Now,you know I haven't had a drop to drink today,Right? I swear I saw a skunk back there with sun glassess on."
My husband looked at me like I was Crazy. I said,"Turn around and go back". So he did. There!... in the middle of the Median between the Hwy, was a dead skunk that someone had the guts to prop up with rocks in a sitting up position and put yellow sunglasses on it. It was horrible!, but so funny. Who ever did that sure had a lot of guts! LOL!!! I sure wish I had my camera that day.

Okie

Everytime I think I wish I had my camera with me, I go home and get on Amazon and look at little Point and Shoots I can carry with me all of the time. But, I never seem to pull the trigger and buy one because I can't find one that has a viewfinder and manual control and enough MP to suit me plus, you know, everything else.

I was out in the boat on the river with my old GF and she was a camera nut. We came about 20 feet off the shore to get into this narrow channel and an American Bald Eagle took off about 50 feet from us out of the trees. It made a beeline just past the boat, she's fumbling around for the camera while I enjoyed the site. By the time she got it out it was too far away. Missed both the picture and a site she'll proabaly never have the chance to see again.

Sometimes you should be glad you don't have that camera.
