Look Out Morocco, Here We Come

Looks like China is going to be a bust this year. The trip (with the pre-trip and post-trip extensions will exceed our budget. When we priced it out the way we wanted it, the total came out to approximately $15,000. This does not include the customary tips and optional side trips. OAT really gets you on the side trips.

Don’t get upset! We are still going on a trip.

Get ready for it….

Here it comes…..

We are going to Morocco for twenty one days. This trip won’t put us in the poor house (hopefully).

I could go on an on with the details of the trip but you can check it out for yourself here: https://www.oattravel.com/trips/land-adventures/africa/morocco-sahara-odyssey/2015?icid=global:ouradventures:africa:mso2015

We will be doing the pre-trip to the northern part of Morocco (for a measly $995 per person): https://www.oattravel.com/trips/land-adventures/africa/morocco-sahara-odyssey/2015/extensions/tangier-chefchaouen-and-the-berbers-of-the-rif

Rocky Mountain Arsenal and National Wildlife Refuge - Part Deux

Yes, I bought a new camera. The new and improved Fuji XT-4. The XT-4 is FAR superior than it's predecessor (XT-3) in all aspects. You can blame Michelle for converting me to Fuji. Now, I must say, I didn't' blatantly spend money on this camera without having a plan. I sold my Nikon Z6 and associated lenses which more than paid for the Fuji. I can honestly say that I feel good about buying the new camera. The only regret that I have is that I didn't ask for more money on the Fuji "kit lenses" that Michelle and I had (27mm). Fuji has NO stock on any of their lenses and I could have made a killing on the lens. They both sold within minutes of posting them on eBay. Dammit! So, you may be asking yourself what the fuck that this has to do with the RMANWR? A test drive on the new camera. Michelle was kind enough to let me "borrow" her Fuji 100-400mm lens. Possession is 9/10 of the law. It is now my possession. The Fuji 100-400mm is far super

Thank You For The Smoke (California)! Wyoming Sucked

Another attempt at Astrophotography gone up in smoke. Thank you California for the ruining our Wyoming weekend. Don't worry, we will be visiting soon and will definitely leave a mark on your ass. The smoke was so bad in Wyoming. Thick, grey and disgusting. Of course, this didn't stop people from going to one of our favorite spots in Wyoming. Medicine Bow National Forest. We dressed for 60 degree weather. We didn't expect 35 degree weather with fog and blustery wind. Glad we packed additional clothes (hats, gloves, scarfs etc). I am ahead of myself. The day excursion to Medicine Bow was the second day. We spent the first day at the Wyoming Territorial Prison to visit relatives. Ha...the prison is now a park. The prison's most famous prisoner was Butch Cassidy. The only prison that Butch was incarcerated in. Pretty good for career criminal. We spent most of the day at the prison. Historical Prisons will the only ones that I will visit. My mother raised m

Denver Zoo (New Lens Test)

Michelle got tired of me asking if I could use her Fuji 100-400mm lens. Really? It's her damn fault for talking me into buying the new Fuji XT-4 in the first place... bitch. I found it on sale at Mike's Camera and with the rebate and free stuff they provided, it was hard to pass it up. Since fall is upon us, bird watching is pretty much out as they have mostly migrated to warmer climates. Well, that is except for the ones at the Denver Zoo. Camera, new lens and COVID Masks in hand, we headed out to the zoo. Well, as you can see, there are more than just birds there. The Fuji Lens blows my old Leica (Panasonic) 100-400mm out of the water. BIG TIME. The Fuji is sharp in the entire focal range. A bit more pricier but the image quality speaks for itself.
