Round 10--REALLY???

[toro_mike]

Excellent! I'll watch for his PM and get the camera out ASAP! Thanks Rick!

 

[Shawn Rahman]

Very sad to hear of Alex Baker's death. He enjoyed participating in this little venture of ours.

For remembrance, I sought out these STRONG images he contributed to Round 9:

Hi Shawn, hi everyone,

Thanks for re-posting that, it's probably the better thing we can do "in memoriam" of Alex.

BTW, people, how about continuing to publish the Camera 9 photos(there was a url link here which no longer exists)
We stopped it two years ago... Maybe it's a way of fighting the TCF (Travelling Camera Fatigue) ?

And I remember there was a camera 9 logbook also, we didn't see the whole beast at all..
@Shawn, do you still have it ?

Cheers,

Raphael

On his profile info: "cdholden was last seen: May 11, 2016"
(there was a url link here which no longer exists).
I hope we're not establishing a pattern here, but does anyone of us know Chris (from Nashville, T?) personally?

I do!

[TheToadMen]

I do!

Glad to have you back!

 

[toro_mike]

I'm glad he's back too! The camera is likely going out today. It'll go out priority with tracking, so keep an eye out!

 

[toro_mike]

The camera is on it's way to Tennessee. Wish it good luck and safe travels!

 

[toro_mike]

Hopefully the camera arrived? It was due Monday, but the USPS tracking site is having "technical difficulties" right now.

EDIT: The USPS site via Chrome did work and showed it delivered.

 

[toro_mike]

Anybody heard from Chris?

 

[toro_mike]

I think the nuts have finally left the nuthouse...

 

[flatulent1]

I think people have found other things capturing their interest, such as watching grass grow.

 

[toro_mike]

Could be. Or maybe this traveling camera thing has run its course.

 

[flatulent1]

That too.

 

[toro_mike]

I sent Chris an email to see if he can confirm whether or not he received the camera.

 

[NedL]

 

[toro_mike]

Chris replied this morning. He is alive and the camera is being well taken care of! So, the story lives on! YAY!

 

[TheToadMen]

So, the story lives on! YAY!

In the mean time: Marry Christmas!!

 

[NedL]

And we should congratulate Rick on his 100th birthday!

 

[Raphael]

Well, so it's Chris (cdholden) the current owner, is there any good news ?

 

[TheToadMen]

Yes, Chris (cdholden) is the current owner. So it isn't lost in transit

 

[flatulent1]

I just realized I could have hung on to the camera for far longer than the measly week that I had it, and got to enjoy it that much more.

<sigh>

 

[Steve Smith]

It takes most of us more than a week to just open the box!

Hi Fred,
Just ask cdholden to ship the camera back to you, then you can enjoy it a couple of month more...

 

[flatulent1]

You know, it's been two months since we've heard from the HOST of this round.

Hey Rick! Are you still with us? What about getting Chris to move the camera along? Please?
