I'm reading the ad paper from best buy, I want to pick up another digital camera. My old Kodak was a good camera, but after 5 years of use and abuse it is about ready for retirement.

I would like something with a nice zoom, but most of the cameras in my price range seem to have about a 3x zoom. I would like to move up to a 6-8 megapixal so I can blow my photos up to 8x10 for framing.

Rog,
Jonathan is coming home today...he really is quite the wiz at camera's and was explaining the pixel, resolution stuff to me. I will ask him about it for you ok.

I have enjoyed reading since my youth (yes they had books Waaaayyy back then). I think that it is great that many of you, share that love of books.

reading is fundamental [img]wink.gif[/img]

Yes Sir it is...Jonathan could read by 3, he had over 500 books before he hit Kindergarten and in 1st grade was reading C.S. Lewis/Lion series. Zach started slower with the reading but he reads his Bible every single day (and can put together 1000 piece puzzle in about 4 hours).
I'm working on teaching Ty...he knows how to count up to 50 and can +/- numbers under 5, knows the Alphabet and the lyrics to 100's of songs. I think Music will be the key with him.

They say a knowledge of music helps with math skills [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]

I will start reading two Media guides that came in today's mail. Atlanta Hawks and Dallas Mavericks 06-07.

Yes Rog...Music actually help with all areas of learning by helping both sides of the brain communicate, which is a very good reason to keep arts in the schools!!!
