After going over the race with Robert, and to some extent Chris, we’ve found a stumbling block: lights. The type of light needed to compete in a 24 hr event has some fairly specific requirements. First, it needs to burn for 3 hrs on a charge. If it doesn’t burn for 3 hrs (say, only […]
Just a quick update on my broken camera. Canon confirmed receipt of the camera at their repair facility today. Also, Jefferson Graham from USA Today contacted me yesterday to discuss my broken camera. He said he personally had 3 Canon cameras fail, and wanted to know more about mine and my experience.

Tomorrow, I promise to post some pics of the girls in costume, and even some a few from our Disneyland vacation 2 weeks […]
