It’s very rare that we get anything remotely resembling “snow”. When I lived in Knoxville, every once in awhile we would get a few inches of snow - sometimes even several inches. Down here in Alabama, some some of the frozen stuff may stick to the grass and shrubs but nothing to get excited about. That’s probably a benefit to living down here though. You want snow, move north.

I’ve got a wedding to shoot tonight with my friends Richard and Cindy. As such, my battery chargers are working overtime topping off the charges on my camera and flash batteries. At some point, I’ll check my cameras for dust on their sensors and clean them off as necessary. Usually a puff from one of my Rocket blowers is all that’s needed but for the tougher stuff, I do have Eclipse fluid and Pec-pads to accomplish a wet cleaning. All told, I’ll have five sets of 4-AA batteries, 2 batteries in each camera’s battery grip, and one spare camera battery. Both cameras actually operate on one battery but for extended life and a vertical portrait grip, the battery grips I have for each camera hold two batteries. I can easily click off more than a thousand shots before needing to change their batteries.

I’m all set on memory cards. I think I have 12-2gb cards and 2-4gb cards. It’s been a few years since I’ve every ran out of storage space thank goodness.

Other than the shoot tonight, I just have some laundry to do and then a run to the grocery store for some supplies. If I have time, I may clean my cymbals. That’s quite a messy and physical operation so the likelihood of me getting to do that are slim.
