And she's crafty... hiding places where she cane surprise him ;~D

Heh. sneaky! That is just too cute!

[SuziQ]

"Leave Her to Heaven"

That was one of my Mama's favorite movies! I've never seen it, so I'll have to get it from Netflix.

[RosieCotton]

Like I said, at least it had a happy ending! But...ouch.

[Peanut Gallery]

That is interesting!

Was the Walmart water advertised as distilled water? Hmm, sounds like they are just bottling "clean" tap water to sell as drinking water.

(It's just scary about your local water supply. You would think that they would cut Tulsa's water company. We NEVER HAD brackish or even black water issues. Maybe times have changed? That was over 15 years ago afterall.)

[Peanut Gallery]

GAK! Are you quite certain that ~wasn't~ a large rodent?

[HairOfTheDog]

No.... not certain at all ;~D

[TalonDJ]

The one of mine that broke has a rapid fire 3/second mode. Keeps taking them as long as you hold it down. Many newer reasonably prices ones have that.

[2Jedismom]

That can be vey dangerous! I get all kinds of inspirations when I do that! Heh heh!

[HairOfTheDog]

Cool. I figured out, in Microsoft movie maker, how to take stills from .avi files too. So the other way to get really good action is to make short movie clips.

[RosieCotton]

Ah...I wouldn't have thought of that. Good idea!

[HairOfTheDog]

It doesn't work so good inside, because there's no flash with movies, at least with mine... so they come out dark.

But got this shot as a still from a movie I took by accident of the horses... Cyn jumping over the drainage ditch.

I take accidental movies all the time with my new camera, it's really easy to switch the mode to movie without noticing, so I think I'm taking a picture, and a few seconds later, I realize it's filming.

So I got to poking around with Movie Maker, which I only just realized I even owned, and it's got a tool that grabs screenshots. It'll also edit movies for length, which is good.

So next time I go out to take pictures of the horses runnin' and playing, I want to try doing it on purpose. You know how that pony gets to bucking, but she's so fast, I ~always~ miss it trying to take pictures the regular way.

I wish I'd have had this tool a couple years ago... I remember always getting stumped trying to take screencaps of LoTR clips that were .avi or other Windows media files. MS Movie Maker does that.

Cyn sure is jumping high for such a small rivulet of water.

Or does the angle make it look smaller than it is?

[HairOfTheDog]

She's jumping WAY more than she needs to ;~D She doesn't like water.

[RosieCotton]

The pony is very hard to capture on film. ;-) Stills from a movie would probably work better than other methods, but even so...can't get the full effect!

She's a character all right!

[HairOfTheDog]

Have to see her go in person, huh!

[RosieCotton]

I think so!

Crazy little gal...

[RMDupree]

Cyn: It's touching me! It's touching me! Help!

hehehehe...nobody's perfect.

[HairOfTheDog]

Yeah - but she lives in the wrong part of the country to have a mud phobia.

[Overtaxed]

I've got Das Boot for tonight. Somehow I doubt it has a happy ending.

[RMDupree]

I apologize if this is a stupid question...

Do you think it's because she's shoeless? Maybe it just feels WAY nastier to her than it does to the other two.
