Lithuania Park

Went sledding after school for a couple hours — after a friend told me at lunch about a childhood acquaintance that died sledding … ack … this definitely went through my mind when I saw a kid today slam into a tree head first at the bottom of the hill, to say nothing of every time Nefarious caught serious air… Significant moguls have been created and the hill is rather treacherous. I think Nefarious rode a total of seven different sleds — the kids always trade them around. I got recognized from the summer as well — one of the kids said, “don’t you have a tattoo on your eye?” Yeah, it makes you memorable. Other than that, I had a terrible fall, and I suspect that after the pain killers wear off I will find myself with an arm that will not allow me to get anything off the top shelf. Not that it will slow me down.

By the way, my camera — an Olympus Stylus 1030 SW — has more than paid for itself… I spent a little bit more to get a camera that’s solidly waterproof and shock proof, and already I’ve had it out dozens of times that would have destroyed my old point-and-click. Definitely a purchase I’m happy with.

    I have the 730SW, bought shortly after I dropped my old canon A75 and watched a bunch of parts pop off. Its been a great camera, and nothing I’ve done has broken it.

    There’s a hill in Streetsville that my dad used to take me to all the time to go tobogganing on. It’s HUGE! The only thing that does suck about it is that it IS so big, dragging your sled back up it starts to suck after a while.

Wow Shannon, that's really annoying! What is it, 1997 on Geocities? Retroweb is NOT cool!
