SWBC 2014 day 3

As you go to things like conventions, you seem to meet people.  I never meet people and form life long friendships, or even know their names at the end of the week. Braeden on the other hand seems to capture the hearts of people.  (He really is a cute kid)  The first day we were there, I took him over so he could see the boom camera.  The operator showed him everything.  He showed him how to move it, how it was weighted and counter balanced so it could be moved with just a finger tip nudge. How the camera is controlled with a joy stick...it was just really cool.  Braeden just ate it up!  The operator told him, he could come back anytime and he'd show him more.  Then he looked at me and said...really anytime.  I smiled, but their friendship has grown all week.  I think the camera guy looks for Braeden daily.  Today, we asked to take our picture with him and he told me he's been thinking of how to get some really great photos of Braeden operating the camera...goodness, that is a really expensive piece of equipment.  I'm sure he means to just stage a photo. We are going to try and do that one day before the end of the week.

There is a record breaking number of people here!
