Vacations, Victoria, Vehicular Mishaps and a D80

It's been MUCH too long since I've had time to play on DA. Life has been far too busy, but thankfully in good ways.

Work...is work. Demanding and hectic but steady and for that I'm glad.

Vacation...I did manage to finagle 2 weeks away and it was much needed!

Victoria...Where I spend my vacation of 2 weeks and I was so happy to go back. Two years was too long to wait. Loads of pics of course which I will be uploading shortly.

Vehicular Mishaps...2nd day in Victoria, my niece is driving me to Mount Doug and we get creamed in the middle of an intersection. She was fine, though quite shaken, the van was totaled and me... well, I broke a tooth and needed to visit the dentist for a root canal and crown (not a fun thing to do on vacation). My knees and shins took a beating, the most amazing shades of black, blue and purple for the next few weeks. Given that I only had two weeks there, I didn't let the ordeal stop me, I just hiked at a considerably slower pace than usual

On the plus side...ICBC took pity on my poor treatment and abuse by Victoria drivers and paid for the dental work and a little extra compensation for pain and suffering.

Consequently the vacation was paid for and I FINALLY purchased my long lusted after
Nikon D80!   

Expect LOTS of wonderful new stocks folks!

Thanks to everyone for all the favs and adds. As always they're much appreciated.

Well...back to the long list of notes to answer, faving all the wonderful artwork that I've missed. Have a great weekend everyone! See you soon!
