Pawtucket Red Sox: Pitching




Sitting just in front of me at the game was a couple from Canada (Bob and Mary Jane). They were driving around New England and thought they would catch a ballgame while in Rhode Island. Lucky for me I picked the same night to be at the ballgame. Bob had a Canon G10 with him (which is one I’ve wanted as a point & shoot) and he mentioned he had a Rebel like mine out in his car. After talking cameras for a few minutes Bob left his seat and came back telling me he had a special surprise for me. Yes, that sounds a little creepy coming from a stranger but he brought back with him a Canon 100-400mm L lens and told me to put it on my camera!! I was shocked and humbled that someone I didn’t even know would allow me use their $1600 lens. Of course, now I have lens envy and I need to start saving for a professional lens.
