My wife and I are looking a purchasing X-mas gifts for our family. I have really no idea on either of the items we are considering.
1. Digital Camera- I did not do any research prior to my first digital camera. I purchased a Kodak easy share system about 4 years ago and have been very disappointed with it. I have been browsing cameras again but have no idea what features are most important. The camera will be used for typical family picture stuff but I would like to have a zoom feature and also be able to take close up pictures. I have also noticed there are different kind of memory cards. I have a flash memory card and I can put it in a slot on my computer (I think it is a SD memory card?) We have determined that we want a 2.5" viewing screen but beyond that have made no decisions so any input would be appreciated.
2. A flat panel TV. I see there are Plasma and LCD. I do not know which is better or really the differences. The only thing we know we want is HD tv capabilities. Again any input appreciated.
As my wife and i have been discussing who we could talk to I said I will ask on Fishing Minnesota. Her response was yea like a bunch of people on a fishing site will know anything about this stuff. I just smiled and said "will see". I plan on printing any replies just to show her that fisher people do know things other then fishing stuff. Thanks for all replies. Good Fishing!!
Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
