Steeler Parade

So, us girls have lived in Pittsburgh for two Saint Patty's Day parades (at least), minus Meg who has yet to experience one, and Spencer and Kala got to experience the last Steeler's parade in 2005. But for whatever reason, I don't think any of us girls expected it to be quite what is was.

For starters, Spencer did her usual morning wake up call for all of us - and it didn't start off the way she planned (at least that is what I would guess ... Chelsea would not wake up to give her a shirt). But then we got random visitors from Burgettstown and finally had an apartment full of friends.

Now, if I was smart, you would have a personal video account of what occurred during the Parade right outside our door. Yes that is correct, we did not have to wait in the cold for hours like most people, we stayed here (quite frankly because even getting food was not an option if you needed to cross The Boulevard). But back to the videos and the new video camera my parents got me for Christmas. Really I use it, and I have 15 videos saved on it. However, it takes me awhile to even find the videos after I take them!

And I had this problem post-Superbowl too - I don't know how to control the color settings! I accidentally shot in black and white at night and in awful lighting during the parade.

Just to point out how crazy it was, I'll cheat and steal a video from y-o-u-tube =)

(I probably could have found better quality but this was one of the closest one's to where we were standing ... made me feel like I was not cheating so much!)



So if anyone can help describe EASY ways to work the DXG 5.1 Megapixel digital video camera, please let me know.


Do you think technology is getting out of hand? I mean, there are now cell phones made for three-year-olds!
