Traveling gal...

At this time next week I will be in London... far from here and the worries and the stress...

Last night I worked on getting my cameras set. I am bringing the T1i, my plastic Yashica 35, and I really want to bring a medium format, but not Diana. I have a maroon Imperial I brought to DC and had great success with those shots. But I really wanted to bring my Grandpa's Argus. But it was in a state of disassembly last night because the shutter was not resetting when I would shoot and advance. Been working on it for months. Well, yesterday was just horrible - reminded me why my favourite times are with the students, not other selfish people in this world - and I needed time alone at home. While the hubby was at acupuncture, I worked on the Argus. Near giving up, I saw another piece far from the area I had been working on near the shutter. I pushed, nudged , and lo and behold... FIXED!!! I snapped that shutter 10+ times and it worked like a charm! Woo hoo! Grandpa can now come with me to London!

Now if only I could figure out how to fix all the cameras at PV... that is my big goal...
