I'm going to try my hardest to make it out tomorrow. As of now I don't have near enough coin. Although if that changes and I get paid or get to sell something I'll be there in a heartbeat. Again if there is anyone around the Neoga, Effingham, Shelbyville, Altamont area of Illinois I will be glad to carpool. I get some decent mileage in the car and we can split gas.

What was the turnout for this? Any pictures from the events? I just want to see what I might be able to expect for next year when I have more money.

Turnout was lower than expected but those that were there had a good time playing in the mud. (near 4" of rain fell Friday night)




I have some video, but will take a few days before I can edit it together and post it.

I wish that I could have attended....actually planned on attending.....but had severe food poisoning (Thanks Subway the wife & I appreciated it ). We missed work Tuesday Afternoon thru Friday...and the doctor would not clear us to come back to work...or anything else...until yesterday. Jessica says that that was the sickest that either of us has been in the 10 years that we have been together. It was horrible. I would have rather been crawling with the toads.

Sorry I couldn't make it, once the ride fell through... well, so did I.

Even my old Minolta works with 7.

Are you using USB 1.0 or 2.0?

I think I had a bad experience this last weekend with Subway also. Josh you must have really been sick if you wanted to crawl with the toads, frogs and other critters.

I would have liked to go to the Farm but I have to get this oral surgery finished.

Im using 2.0 but it doesnt really matter, Canon says its not compatable and so does Microsoft and all the camera web boards I could find. I have an old xp pc but I have to set it back up.

I guess I lucked out with my nine year old camera working on my new computer (Win 7).

Couldn't you pull the flash card and use a win7 compatable card reader to pull them off? The jpg images must be able to be read in win7, or at least be able to transfer or upload them.

I used Raw format It usually results in better pictures, this time I ended with unreadable pictures. Ill get the old pc up and running, just have to find all the cables.

Nice!
It looks fun, some nice obstacles.
You know, if I had been there I think I would've had to of gone last on the bridge's. I don't think those wooden slats would've supported my my big bug
