My little brother has been generally immobile for the past month and a half 
due to dislocating his ankle from his foot ... 

SO, to get him moving on his crutches yesterday, I took him to the park 
with a few cameras and a Peterson book -- Understanding Exposure.  

We spent 4 hours (wow, getting either of us to sit for 4 hours to focus on 
anything is a BIG DEAL!) going through the book and learning.  This was his 
first time playing with a SLR camera so there was the happiness reward for 
learning the ISO / Aperture / Shutter Speed triangle.  He learned to shoot 
in manual and create his own images, so cool.  He's excited about it and 
wants to continue.  I'm happy because this helps our bond grow and we've 
found new stuff we can be passionate about together, cool !  :)

I took the Bombadil, got some cool Erik Jensen (bikenoir.blogspot.com) 
inspired photo captures.  Couldn't feel more perfect on the Bomba.  Did 
some grown-over single track riding in the thick woods.  Light, quick, 
super agile, carved when i wanted it to, well behaved, cut through the 
thick underbrush and over gravel.  Was it the bike, maybe the tires, 
perhaps the bars, maybe it was me (ha, unlikely)?  It was all together 
perfect.
