They will put it up on Mother's Day, May 8th. I'm really excited to surprise her with it, so I'm scheming to get the family to Times Square. It's going to be SO HARD not to let it slip considering I'm practically bouncing off the walls! :lol3

Easier said than done! But I'm working on it, she's going to love it. After being together 18 years, it's not often I get to totally shock her!
Thanks guys - :thumb

Thanks everyone. I am really pumped to see her face go from confusion to recognition to shock! The plans are proceeding, and I have recruited my MIL as an accomplice... :D

Thanks again everyone. :thumb
I see the old Rebel still has some kick left in it! Nice one DJ :thumbActually, I took this on the Cape last summer with the S1. Way before you lured me to the dark side with the Rebel. :wink I couldn't have gotten this shot without the 10x zoom on the S1...not until I go get a nice 300mm for the Rebel, that is! Lens lust; I got it bad!

Thanks guys. Fred, just saw your shot in the other thread, looks great up there on the big display! Congratulations!
It just occurred to me that we will have DGrin KPOTD's on consecutive sundays - that's pretty cool!
As for my special ops assignment, phase one is complete and we will be in NJ for the weekend. She's none the wiser yet, and now all we have to do is get her to Manhattan...
