David, on Day One of our last trip to Maui. Really, this is more of a test post, I’m checking out ecto, and the iTunes plugin associated with it. I’ve managed to get it working and it appears to be mostly harmless. There’s a support forum, Time for the acid test. I may be cracking open a beer in a second, but will there be much joy? or no joy?

Flickr and Yahoo, those two cahootsers, are integrating even more by making it possible to sign in to Flickr using a Yahoo ID. This is supposed to make it easier to use and easier to invite people, and they’ve made the sign-up process even easier. So hey Timmy! Why don’t you sign up for Flickr and start putting some family photos up? How about everybody else in our far-flung family? I’ve been having a lot of fun with it lately and still have plenty of photos that I want to highlight there. I’m starting to join more group pools and…

Lunch at the Arboretum: cranberry and goat cheese salad with raspberry vinaigrette, yum! There’s a Flickr group called “Lunch!” so I added this image to the pool. I had raspberry iced tea, too. I was in a berry good mood.

Image title: photo_0014.jpg We went for a short jaunt today to Morton Arboretum – started with lunch, then went over to the west side to see an area we’ve never visited before, the Schulenberg Prairie. First things first, though. Cool off in the visitor’s center, then relax in the cafe. Originally uploaded by GinnyRED57.

I’ve added a new photo gallery, Olympiad. It covers the part of our big late May trip from when we left Seattle on the ferry, so we could have lunch in Winslow with my friend Christine before driving up and around the corner to Port Angeles. It’s also got some of the first full day we drove around the edges of Olympic National Park, and some coastal stuff. There are a lot more photos to add in the next albums, which will cover a day trip to Victoria, some hiking near Hurricane Ridge, and a bit of the Hoh Rain…

towerbridge-thumb Originally uploaded by GinnyRED57. Another photo from the 2004 trip to Britain. I have to remember, until I figure out how to get the text to flow properly on photos posted from Flickr, that I need to write enough text to clear the bottom of the image, or the problem posed by having a floated image within a floated center column will keep screwing things up. I keep fiddling with the customized CSS at Flickr; images blogged from Flickr look great over at the Blogspot photoblog, but they’re are handled differently there (no CSS drop shadow) and the layout…

Union Jack raised at State Department, Washington DC Originally uploaded by Antarctic Lemur. I may have to email this to Debbie in Washington. I don’t know if the Union Jack is being raised in place of the Stars and Stripes, or if it’s going up on a “guest of honor” type of flagpole. But if it’s the former, the alternate reality folks will get a kick out of it. I approve of the sentiment and hope these guys don’t catch any flak.

I’ve been slowly getting more photos online from the recent trip to Washington State – some more Folk Life pictures are up on my Flickr site. I’ve got a lot more to add to both the gallery page and to Flickr, I hope by the end of this week.

I’ve added some more images from last week’s trip to my gallery and now that takes us up through the end of the festival weekend. The actual festive activities start with this photo; I took a bunch of pictures of the mostly-inactive revamped fountain before there were actually people at the site. This time I tried to take more images of people and interesting things rather than just pictures of static performances. Take a one man band, a bunch of guys in Utilikilts, some dancing girls, some singing groups, and an incredible array of fascinating characters and long-lost friends, and…
