    Default Santa finally pulled through for me!

    My sister gave me a pair of binoculars that also take digital photos. Useful for work, AND, given the problems that I've been having with my neighbor, possibly good for around here, too!

    I'm playing with them today, to see how well they work, and then...let the spying begin!!

    How cool is that!!! This would be a blast especially on the neighbor. You have to post some of the stuff you catch. Course with the work it sounds like you're in that could be interesting too...Can't wait to hear some of the stories...better than the Enquirer!!!!

    that's cute!! Why didn't anyone come up with that combo a long time ago?? It seems logical to have binoculars that can take a picture.

    Oh wow - cool gift.

    How close will they bring the pic? That would be a cool thing to have for viewing the eagles up here. The eagles are in --have to get over to see them!

    They aren't super high-end. The box claims that they magnify 10x greater than the naked eye.
