A Christmas Present

We're in that time of year that I call the "lull," or transition point, counting down to the New Year. I don't like these few days. And I can't remember the last time we had a white Christmas. On Christmas day, it was in the low 80s (F). The picture is a camera I wanted. My wife gave it to me for Christmas. I also got $100 worth of Amazon cards from the kids, and my nephew gave me a screwdriver set that has a number of bits and sockets (metric and standard) included with it. I'm not sure if I'm going to like the camera. After snapping an (admittedly few) photos, it kind of seems like my iPhone camera is the superior camera. Still, it's nice to have.
