Lack of photos

A few weeks ago (right before TJ's Birthday. I managed to break the door on the battery compartment of my camera. I was downloading pix to the computer when I moved my legs around to grab something the caught the USB cord and . . . the rest is history. Since then I have tried duct tape to fix my camera as, duct tape fixes everything, but with all my fancy buttons I can not get the duct tape all the way around and therefore can not get enough pressure to get my camera to work consistently. As some of you may know I am an amateur photographer with dreams of going pro! We are now faced with the dilemma of weather or not to fix my wonderful camera, that by the way Scott doesn't like. So, right now it looks like we are going to replace it with a Pentax Optio for the time being until I can pick out/afford a nice SLR. The one he picked out looks really great though. It is water proof up to 5ft so we are going to get some great shots out on the jet skis this summer. It has a few other nice features too. It is small a durable for him to take rock climbing, kayaking, whatever. It should be able to stand up to what ever abuse he can dish out. So, once I get my SLR the new Pentax will still be in use on Scott's trips. Anyway, what I am trying to say is I won't have any pix up for a few weeks until I get a replacement. :-(
