I now have a new weapon. This time it’s a really dangerous one.

I now have a Canon Digital Rebel XT – aka the EOS 350d. I have the 18-55mm kit lens and a 50mm f1.8 prime lens. Of course, this is far from the sort of thing I can afford very often – set me back by a $900+ when everything came together, I had some help from my friends to get things to work out. But as life would have it, I had to buy the camera now or wait for ~3 months, since I was leaving the US for a while. More on that later.

I have decided to call him “Keeper” based on the keepers in Babylon 5. J

I had been Chicago on Thu and took “Keeper” along.

This trip also gave me the chance to visit Shedd Aquarium which I had been meaning to visit for a while.

 cheers!
