    Bunny With A Deathwish

    Via: Flickr Title: 06-19-07_1924.jpg By: GinnyRED57 Originally uploaded: 19 Jun ’07, 7.25pm CDT PST Seen at Walgreens: a rabbit not long for this world, given the nature of his nesting material.   And no, I did not pose it there – someone else out here in the bland, featureless suburbs has a somewhat roccoco sense of humor. Oh. Wait… this just begs to be cheezburg0red.

    Flickr: Help: Blogging

    Flickr: Help: Blogging How do I post photos to my blog?   First you’ll have to configure an external blog, (do that here). You’ll be guided through the set-up process, and at the end you can try a test post to make sure everything works. When that’s done, you can blog any public photo you see on Flickr. When you’re looking at a single photo, for example, http://www.flickr.com/photo.gne?id=23754, you’ll see a “Blog This” button above it. Note: If you don’t see the “Blog This” button, you probably need to make the photo public (click “edit” next to the privacy indicator under…

  • The Never-Ending Bloga

    Blogkeeping chores

    I’ve disabled/removed the code for SnapShots previews; it seemed like an ‘Oooh!’ when I saw it on another blog, but has become an ‘Ehhhh’ because any mousing around caused the previews to pop up unexpectedly.

What caught my eye was the party of locals in black hats by the entry, as they all had big rodeo buckles and wore their hats througout the meal in approved cowboy fashion when breakfasting alfresco. I wonder what the long-time local residents think of all the new development that turned Steamboat from a sleepy li’l one-eyed rancher’s town…

  • Traveling Along, We're Adventurers

    8th Avenue Bailout

    As the incessent moblogging makes clear, we’re not in Illinois at the moment. In fact, we’re on a 4-day weekend trip to visit some of our favorite places and meet up with my sisters for one last little item on our “To Do” list concerning Mom and her final wishes. But more on that later. Today’s topic is urgent: a restaurant review that includes a dramatic bailout maneuver. My husband David and I took the scenic route to Steamboat today – we were in Boulder for a couple of nights doing the sentimental journey thang, and then in a fateful…
