Cousin Orville, I gain a little insight from each trip report I read. Just want to thank you for the beautiful photographs, mind expanding virtual touring, and sharing the info on your preferred camera. I was in need of a good little pocket sized "idiot proof" point and shoot since my coolpix finally died. I took your advice (based on the photos) and got the Sony RX-100,M2. OMG! I took photos at my son's swim meet and they were gorgeous! I cannot wait until Arizona/Utah to see the pics. Again, thanks for the recommendation. Donna
