Title: been AWOL for a little while
Post by: grandpawrichard on October 03, 2014, 08:17:40 AM: My wife and I recently took a little Vacation / Photo Adventure trip to Lopez Island in the San Juan Islands of Washington State. Here are a few of the photos I took.
Between the two of us and our 3 cameras we took 1132 photos in 3 days.

Post by: grandpawrichard on October 03, 2014, 09:36:56 AM: :) We had a Fantastic Time on the island. :) We put 102.5 miles on our car in 3 days and the island is only 11.5 miles wide by about 8 miles. :) We went to all 14 parks on the island and to a few of them twice. :)
One day we went to 5 parks that involved long trails to the beach, on that day we hiked 12 miles. It was an early night that night! We were in bed by 8:30 p.m.!

We turned OFF our Cell Phones, Had No Internet, NO TV and No Radio! (I did have my Laptop for loading and editing photos, just in case we had a problem with any of our memory cards for the cameras. Otherwise, we were Completely Unplugged for 3 days! It was GREAT! :)

Ed,
I sure hope the next time we are over on Lopez that we get to hook up with you for a Handshake and a cup of coffee! :)

Post by: wadu1 on October 06, 2014, 10:03:13 PM: WOW number 7, is perfect example of an S curve that I was taught in a photography class some 45 years ago. Great photo's love them all but #7 is the cats meow. :)
