Why I like my Nikon D-70
This is one of the many shots I took in Mexico that I am sure I would not have been able to get with my CyberShot. This was taken during a water balloon fight we had with the street kids at Sobre El Puente in Acapulco. It followed a fun skit in which we discovered just how good a sport Ron Campbell is:
More Mexico pics and stories to come. . .
ROTFL!!!!!!!!!!!!! You have got to print that photo of Ron and stick it in his mom's bulletin on Sunday. That would be hilarious!

Posted by: Mandi at Julio 20, 2005 10:51 PMScott, I know what LOL means, and LMAO, but ROTFL is new to me. . .??
Mandi, it was a skit where one person is the arms for another. In this case, Parker Webb (the one in the water balloon photo above) was Ron's arms. They then attempt to perform otherwise ordinary tasks such as brushing their teeth, eating cereal, and putting on. . .um, underwear.
Jack Webb planned the whole thing, and he has quite a genius. Ron knew the basic premise ahead of time and agreed to whatever would be funny, but didn't know any of the details ahead of time, which made it even funnier.
Ron was such a good sport, and such a blessing to have on the team. He never had anything but a great attitude, and truly served the team at all times.

Posted by: willa at Julio 21, 2005 10:03 AMI laugh out loud every time I see the pics from that skit! Can't wait to see more!
Posted by: MandyM at Julio 22, 2005 12:30 PMDad,Scott, I reloaded the thumbnails of these two pics. Now they look grainy to me. But I did them exactly the way I did the one of Sam at top, and it looks fine. Any suggestions?
Posted by: willa at Julio 24, 2005 05:17 PMTry removing the size tags from the image reference and see what happens. Looks to me like you made the photo smaller than it was before.
For example:
