Disk-O-Mania

After dinner tonight I asked if we could stop at Staples. I needed three floppies! Yeah, when was the last time you used, much less needed, a floppy disk?

Great day. Beautiful weather. Helaine and I went out to pick up some pictures frames. We’re hanging last year’s Daffodil Hill photos the same day I go this year!

It was beautiful in Northfield. My friend Steve met me up there. More on the photography tomorrow as the geotagging of the pictures is slowing me down.

“Why do you need them tagged?” Helaine asked. “Don’t you know where you took them?”

She misses the point. I geotag because I can. I am driven to geotag. She doesn’t like the Three Stooges either.

You’ll be glad to know they’re still available and priced as if only desperate people are buying. My ten pack was nearly $7.00. Are you kidding me?

More on the photos tomorrow.

I’m Wishing It Was Spring

I’ve been thinking about spring because with the re-do in the kitchen I have convinced Helaine to let me hang a few springtime photos from Daffodil Hill in Litchfield County.

As forecast (my favorite phrase) it’s a nasty Saturday. More clouds than sun. Scattered sprinkles. Windy and chilly. As glad as I am my forecast verified I’d rather have real spring.

I’ve been thinking about spring because with the re-do in the kitchen I have convinced Helaine to let me hang a few springtime photos from Daffodil Hill in Litchfield County. I have a ‘gallery’ upstairs, but this is a lot more visible. These will be 8x10s on the two walls bordering a large window.
