My clunky heavy Canon A70 served me faithfully for the past 4 years. It died while filming cheerleaders at the Putra Stadium…an unusual way to go. Now I’m hoping my new camera will arrive in time for my camping trip to the land of the Last of the Mohicans this weekend.

People use the phrase “hit the ground running”, I have to hit the ground sprinting! I’ll have to get some things done before heading off on another short vacation to Nashville and the Smoky Mountains.

It took me 33 hours to get from Penang-home to Duh-home. One day later, I’m still jetlagged and very very tired.
