Since it is such a pleasant, gentle day, I couldn't resist retracing part of yesterday's route downtown. This time, I brought my camera and for once I actually planned ahead and charged one of my batteries in the morning before I left. It did me yeoman service, lasting with no problem through all 200 shots I took. Yes, I did take a few pics. Once I got my PowerShot S20 with 340 MB Microdrive I figured out the secret to good photography - take lots of shots and hope that a few turn out good. It's very freeing to just be able to snap anything that takes my fancy without having to worry about running out of space (it will hold about 300 pictures). I went into the Fort Massey Cemetary for the first time, to get a picture of the flag. I thought it went straight through to South Park, but it's blocked off from the other cemetary behind it by a fence. Then I went to Oland's fountain, with its inexplicable "DANGER: High Voltage" sign (is the fence electrified? the water?) and on into the Public Gardens. I think this is the best picture I took:
