I am only kidding about asking where to spend it :lol: I already ordered a 20D from my local photo store (Simjo Photo). The first and second SS payments are spent. My present to myself for makeing it this long without getting killed :) I was almost at the point of going back to N&**N to get instant on and wakeup, Ive missed so many shots becasue of having to wait on my 10d to wake up :? I know the sayings :D A fool and his money soon part and there is no fool like a old fool :lol: But I'm going to my grave poor!!!!!!!! and maybe in debt :lol: hummmm maybe I shodda ordered a Mark II? Naw I'm too weak to carry it.... any way just wanted to brag to someone. Thanks for putting up with me :)

Geez Jerry - you coulda bought a couple more batteries and just kept the 10D powered up at all times.

Good idea Jerry. I might do the same (no ss check for me though...)

I don't know where you should spend it, but cash it as soon as you can. I won't be paying into the system forever, you know...

Jerry,

Enjoy your new camera (when it comes) and your retirement. I won't preorder the 20D because the wait would kill me. I will wait for it to be available in stores. That way when I make the decision to get it, I'll know I am getting it right away. Also my wife won't let me get it this soon after investing so much money on my DRebel and lenses. :lol:

I hunted Bear here in Va for 20 years, the closest I got was I almost ran over one with my truck in the middle of the road on the Sunday night before the season opened :? I did take a 35mm pic with a P & S of a Bear on the next ridge. Came out great! Looked like the period at the end of this sentence :lol: I wouldn't mind being close if I have my 12 gauge with me.. but canon bodies just won't cut it!!
