I have been doing more research on the kayaking club #36; this will go on as well. I like to learn all I can on something that really interests me.
I have started on #37. I have always loved taking pictures especially since I had my girls. But then it kind of slipped away and I didn’t get as many pictures as I would have liked but lately as I turned 50 and have been traveling I have been more interested in it again. I carry my camera in my purse at all times. I just have a Nikon CoolpixL11, small camera nice starter and nice if you like simple. I am working towards getting a Nikon D3000 camera eventually. That will be great. When I learn more then I will get it. So I have ordered some books on digital photography and doing a lot of research online about it. During my research I have came across Scott Kelby's Digital Photography boxed set 3 volume, I ordered these through Amazon. He has a wonderful site as well with short very informative videos. I have noticed for me it’s easier to see and hear things for me to learn easier so these are a great thing. I also purchased Digital Cameras & Photography for Dummies
book it even came with a DVD by Mark Justice Hinton w/ Barbara Obermeier and I purchased Digital SLR Cameras & Photography for Dummies by David Bush. I like these Dummies books because they are very easy to read and explain a lot. I am not a fast/easy learner so these are great books if you like simple and thorough. Also the book store in my area was closing so I got them for half price. wooohooo can’t beat that. Also you sure can find a lot of information online. Most of it is FREE. That’s nice, you just have to check and check and keep checking. You will find a ton of info on any subject. But a site to check out for Digital Photography and Photoshop and more is Kelbystv.com. Great and very informative site. This item on my list will also be an ongoing accomplishment. So I guess it is also safe to say that I am working on #43 as well because with learning all I can about kayaking and learning and researching photography I have certainly been reading a lot more. I really enjoy it also. I used to read a lot when I was in my early 20’s then it kind of slipped away and became less important to me and when I started again was on my third flight to Hawaii on July 29, 2009. It is a long flight so I took this small book that could fit in my purse called, “Just Breathe
”. It got me hooked again. I read the whole book on my two week “Hawaii 50” trip. I named it that because it was my 50th birthday trip. I have always wanted to go to Hawaii and Hawaii became the 50th state the year I was born so what better place to turn 50. When I came back I was ordering all kinds of books off Amazon and reading, reading, reading. I usually have a half read book in every room of my house. Now I am getting into kayaking, photography, gardening and traveling I have been getting a lot of reading info on these topics. But mostly so far kayaking
and photography
are the subjects now. I have received some travel info and gardening
info so I guess it is safe to say that I have also started #’s8 & 53. So I guess #8 would be the gather info part but I have not taken any trips yet so I will come back to that when I am planning a trip. On #53 I have received gardening info in the mail and some emails but haven’t’ done a whole lot with them yet so I have some info so I guess you can say these 2 items are started but far from changing them to red.(meaning finished). I have noticed on my list that there are quite a few items that will really never be completely finished, actually if I start them and keep doing them right thru the 1001 days then I will have accomplished what I wanted to with them.
