RE: Weekend-engagement topic week 55: The gift

in Weekend Experiences4 years ago

Well, any gift, eh? I would love to get a proper telescope/camera astrophotography rig to set up in my backyard and shoot deep space. That would generate some serious Wisconsin backyard excitement, you know?

For a gift to someone else on Hive...hmmm...good question. Ideally, I'd send all my good Hive frends 1 million dollars of Bitcoin, each, today if I had been smarter back in the day and accumulated. But if I had to choose just one, I'd send @bulldog-joy some big old binoculars so that she could look like a creeper too, just like me - lol - while looking at the night sky in the backyard. I should point out no one has called the cops on me yet, so maybe it's a legit look??

Sort:  

I said last week that I thought I knew what you'd want to self-gift yourself...I was right. 😂

Lol...I like your gift to Anna because who wouldn't want to look like a creeper right? She's off line for the moment, computer issues, but I'll make sure she sees this as I did with cmplxty's gift to her.

Yeah, I still love the idea of backyard astronomy...I think I might have a solution if I save up a bit here. I'd still prefer giving all my Hive friends a million USD in satoshis, to be honest, but hey, hindsight is 20/20! I was probably too busy buying penny stocks that went nowhere, fast, in 2011-2012, lol.

We live and learn right? And live and don't learn also. :)

Yep and speaking of...going to have a more reflective post to share with the #weekend crew this week and hoping to get some good comments and feedback - should be a fun one!

You're welcome to post into THE WEEKEND community anytime as most of your content would fit and all of it is good.

That's pretty different most of others gifted themselves cameras to capture things on Earth but you chose to capture the space which very less people know that it's beautiful 😅❤️ I hope you get that camera/telescope. I had seen some videos of space and moon and I was mesmerized.

Oh yes...I love the sky at night! I started following some YouTube astrophotographers during covid, and was fascinated with what they captured from their back yards. Absolutely fascinating

Well I hope you get it soon and experience what you saw in those videos in person 🖤 take care mate 😁❤️
