Just wanted to offer a sincere Altadenablog "Thank You!" to our wonderful sponsors and those of you who've helped fill our tip jar since the Station Fire. It has enabled us to pay off our desktop computer, erase assorted debt we've accumulated bringing this blog to you, increase our bandwidth, and most prominently enabled us to upgrade our camera equipment from a cheesy $200 point-and-shoot Kodak to a Canon XSi with several lenses and a big ol' battery pack (our first picture under the new regime was the TechWeek story below).
(We've found that people treat you with a lot more respect when you're carrying a big-*ss camera! They think you know what you're doing!)
Again, we're so glad to have the resources available now to upgrade our equipment and services and continue to bring you Altadena, online. Thank you so much for your continued support of Altadenablog!
