GETTING MORE TALEÂ #572: A Weekend at the Lake
A new summer, and new tech! My beloved BlackBerry Z10, bought over four years ago in early 2013, has bitten the dust. Â That Blackberry was responsible for most of my Sausagefest and Mike and Aaron Go to Toronto videos, not to mention the hundreds of photos it provided for this site. Â In that time, my BlackBerry required no service at all. Â So to all those who told me not to buy a CrackBerry:
My new weapon is a Samsung (not the kind that explodes) and so far I’m very pleased with it. Â This past weekend I had a chance to give its camera and video abilities a test run. Â Needless to say the quality of both exceeds my four year old phone. Â I was so happy with the quality that I decided to edit together a little video and post it for you. Â I’ve done this for a few good reasons:
- It’s another excuse to showcase the excellent music of Stealth, featuring Kathryn Ladano and Richard Burrows.
- I have a chance to give my Samsung a dry run before using it to create the 2017 Sausagefest video in July!
- This video ties in nicely with Getting More Tale #567: Â Creatures of the Night. Â I wanted to give you a feeling for what it actually sounds like at the lake, and I captured a bit of a nice rain storm. Â In this video you’ll get that, some nice crashing waves, and a raging river at near-flood levels. Â In fact the water level at our location on Lake Huron has returned to its 1980s level. Â Old-timers there always said the water levels rise and fall over decades-long cycles.
Please enjoy some of the music of Stealth, and the sounds of pure nature. Â Look for a cameo by my dad, up to no good prob’ly. Â Leave your comments below: Â What do you think LeBrain’s dad is up to this time?
