[Philmont] Cameras and notepads. A differing opinion.

On Thu, 18 Oct 2007 05:47:00 -0400, coopwright@aol.com jammed all night, and by sunrise was heard saying:

Or maybe they just don't know about linking onto this page? I think
online photo albums, not to mention video, have gone from being fairly
specialized things to things "everyone does". Those doing it today may
actually be less informed about such things than in the past.

Of course, with that said, I'll have to admit that I'm way behind in
uploading the 250 photos and editing down my 70GB of raw HDV from this
summer's trek (Crew 712K1 Trek 8). But it will keep... something to work
on when there's snow on the ground, perhaps :-)
