Plants! Camera!

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:29 pm  

This morning I worked in the garden. I replanted two large corn plants.

While I was doing that, I reached for my camera to document what was going on and NO camera! The case that I have on my belt was there, but not the camera. I searched for over an hour and a half. All through the yard, I’d even been up on the roof cleaning branches. Went back up on the roof.

All through the house. Completely through the car. Absolutely baffling. I’m sure it’ll turn up, but if it’s outside . . . well that’s never good. I’d gotten a little over two years out of it and it was actually a free replacement of another camera! That’s why I always get the insurance.

It has some different features than my previous camera. Better quality HD video for one. It also has wifi, although I’m not sure I’d use that. It’s the Canon Power Shot ELPH 340 HS. I’ve shot this family of cameras for years. They are amazing.

It was a sad day because of my camera. It served me well! Looking forward to using my new one!

I also repotted one of the hibiscus.

Put a 12 pack of begonias into little pots.

As far as my inside plants go: the orchids, Venus Fly Traps and African Violets seem happy.

Good color saturation in the new camera.

This little orchid is still a juvenile.

I got her from a orchid grower in Florida. It’s blooms are amazing and they’re supposed to smell like gardenias and orange blossoms. Yeah, baby!

Came home to work on admin duties.
