Hello everyone. I am finally back. I decided to take a year off and just RELAX. I can't wait to get back into the forum. I have missed it.

Just wanted to say hello and all is well.

well... Lets just say that I took a little trip. I hopped aboard a sailboat w/ some friends and we just went on an adventure. We had no email on the open sea. It was fun. Of course I took the GL2 with me, but sadly it did not make it home. =( About 3 months into the trip, we hit some rough water (and i mean rough) and i went out to take footage of the swells. One big one hit the side of the boat and the GL2 came of my hand and landed next to me. I figured I needed some kind of "assistance" in keeping it in place. I took some duct tape, and wrapped it around the camera and my wrist in a kind of figure eight motion. I went back outside, and was doing great, until another huge swell crashed into the side of the boat. It knocked me off my feet, and into the ocean. I was so determined to keep the GL2 above water that I was was only using 1 hand to swim. Well this was a very ineffeicient way to do things in this rough water. i cut the camera loose, and said my goodbyes to it. The boat came around, picked me up and now my GL2 lies at the bottom of Davey Jones' locker.

Well I had better be going. I will talk to you all soon.

Let us bow our heads and play TAPS for our drowned comrade.
