I had issues goin on with my very first external hard drive and through the days and mess of the trying to save my very first thousand pictures, I just couldn't save them all.... You may remember my "play days" post with a pictures done in the rain. Long story short, I had to replace those pictures because I enjoyed them so much! Sooo, the rain gave me a definite excuse to go out and play and shoot! (Also notice the more fancy stuff... :D I'm so proud of myself! I've taught all that I've done so far! yay!)
