Starting Thursday afternoon, I arrived somewhere north of Danville, Vermont upon invitation from my former neighbors to play out in the woods. Their family owns 210 acres of land with a lot of trails, waterways and privacy. I packed enough to not have to leave the camp all weekend but on Friday, I ventured up to Hill Farmstead Brewery for some beers and Parker Pie for pizza and finally to East Montpelier to grab fireworks for the group. It’s good to note this was a very ‘redneck’ weekend very akin to my days living in Florida. We road ATVs, drank good and cheap beer and listened to country music while eating a copious amount of meat. The group brought a gas grill, deep fryer and smoker. It was quite a bit of fun! I also got to test some camping gear that I’ll be utilizing all Summer on various trips around the Northeast.
This weekend was photographed exclusively with Heather’s Canon S110 since my Olympus EM-1 is currently sitting in a rice-bath due to water damage. This is the first exclusive use of the S110 since I recommended Heather buy one ahead of our Euro-Trip. I loved the S90 and S95 and this is an excellent camera at a great price. The automatic white balance was flawless. I’m not that impressed with the low-light performance but that’s not what this camera is for. It performed very well on non-action shots in good lighting producing a very acceptable image.
Pizza @ Parker Pie was great. I never miss a chance to drop by and have my mouth destroyed by spicy food
