Broken Cameras, Rentals, and Lakes

My main camera (Nikon’s D600) broke on me over a month ago.

I have been using my old camera (D300s) but we rented a D850 for a week and I am in love!

I just got it yesterday and could not resist going out to the lake to play. My girls put up with my insane picture taking a bit more than my boys. ha Mostly, they were happy I was distracted with playing with the camera so they could launch walnut boats. They actually ask for me to take their picture 😉

Well at least if I take one of their pictures they will.

She hides a lot of sass behind that smile 😉 I have decided maybe renting camera equipment should be my present for every birthday.

So much fun!

Heyburn Lake, OK

run

We went to Heyburn Lake for a hike on the day after Thanksgiving.

These boys had a lot of energy to burn.

hunting

The Wildlife Management Area is open to hunting so that part of the trail is closed certain times of the year.

south

There are still trails to hike that are within the park though.

We took the trail down to the lake.

The boys love to explore on the shore of lakes!

It is always an interesting trick to keep from sinking in the mud.
