That hurt my feelings.

The strap came loose from the camera and it
fell from my neck and hit the sidewalk
on the bottom corner where the
battery goes into the camera.

It could have been worse, it could have landed
on my lens and busted that but it was spared and is working just fine!

Soon as she gets home, I will be sewing that strap together for extra security!
Thanks, Tauna for that little helpful hint.
