I'm pulling off the Lee filter kit, slapping a CPL on the new 16-35 f/4L IS and going to go hike a little and break it in today.

I love that stuff. Young Turks getting smoked by the ol' fart. Good for you. If you ever ride out here let me know. I'd love to get some shots.

Yeah, it's fun.
The other old guys then tell them ..

fyi ... I did my rounds at the US Olympic Centers too ... NMU & CS

That is so cool. Unfortunately, Olympic Development is so political. (I'm sure your advancement was merit based.) You must have rooms and rooms filled with medals and stuff.

I have a box with some stuff in it.
Cycling is alot of team based sport. I was a sprinter and a hill climber.

I remember getting one of the first carbon fiber rear disc wheels for my road bike.
In a TT I did the fastest time I ever done . the road was tree lined. I passed alot of high caliber riders.
Then the last half the trees disappeared and there was a strong crosswind. I then did a poor last half due to the crosswind.
So I did an avg time overall.

It was fun though.

LOL ... (really) LOL

and I was in a mood for cooking so I added some things... it was a soup with homemade noodles or whatever you called that, potatoes with onions, sweet corn and peas ( the way I made it is too complicated to explain in English, but I cut myself twice!) and trout and grayling

Another coach borrowed my d7000. I configured it for shutter speed and aperture and autoiso.
He took 1,402 pictures. When I find 11 good ones I use them to make a 4x5 for each player to remember the season.
1,402 pics .... alot of them bad too .. lol

There is! Supposedly a lookout or watchtower, but it's so low in the valley I don't know what they were watching for.

It's a neat looking watch tower (hint hint).
They probably used it to watch the grass growing !!

Mary Lou's kids played soccer. My kids swam.

I shot for all the teams Steven played. When Steven graduated from high school, one of the parents mentioned to another parent that me not returning will have the biggest effect on the club.
