Well, after over 6 years and well beyond 10,000 pictures, my camera finally broke The actual plastic piece that turns the camera on gave out. There are no replacement parts for this piece, and Kodak has long ago given up servicing the camera. I have done some tweaks to the camera that will allow me to use it somewhat. But I have no idea how long they will hold up. This is going to limit the pictures I will be able to take the rest of this season. Just wanted to let everyone know.

I count this as an early victory. Nobody has posted a pic of me on this site yet and I may sneak through this year with your camera giving you trouble.

Thank you. But no.
I will be able to replace the camera without much trouble later this year. Just right now things are tight due to the fees needed to get my daughter enrolled in OSU, and some repairs I need to make. After all that is out of the way I will have a new camera. It's past time anyway. This one is only 2 megapixel. And I can get a whole lot more than that for a lot less than the $120 I paid for this back in 2003.
I am touched at the thought. But I could never accept anything like that.
I do what I do, because I want to. And it is not like I only use the camera for faire. I use it daily, and so does my daughter. There are many others in our faire family that are worse off than I am. So I could never in good concience accept gifts from cast or my faire family.

See Kat, that is what makes it funny. I've talked with you before, I've talked with Trevor before. I've actually talked with pretty much everybody that posts huge numbers of pictures here. I'm always there in garb and I get lots of pictures taken while there. But none of them ever show up here.
I just never hang out in any of the regular gathering places with the rest of you.

Would you take a camera loan, Trevor? Being on cast i can't really use mine, but i really enjoy looking at everyone else's pictures.

Don't worry. I am still using it and taking pictures.
Only differnce is, that I am taking less of them. And one of the things I am finding is that I end up with a much higher percentage of usable ones.

Well, I know you've already heard it, but thank you for taking them. I wasn't feeling well today, and I saw that you already had today's pictures up, and it made me smile . We always really appreciate what you do!
