Ksquared, I'm pleased to report that I stopped by my photo developer today and asked if it's possible to get a CD from print negatives. Turns out it is, so I may give that a shot. It seems like it might be a fairly simple way to get the images on a computer file. Most of my better scenics are on slides, so I'll need to get them on a negative by copying prints that I've made to print film (by taking closeup pictures of them). It's getting complicated already. <g>
Meetings .... I remember the counterproductivity of meetings, which were getting to be a plague when I retired 8 years ago. Don't miss them a bit.
Snack food .... Back in my drinking days, I always had simple stuff like chips, dips, cashews, etc. .. obviously not up to your more elegant standards. <g> Since I didn't limit my drinking and snack food to weekends, it might be why I was 40 pounds heavier back then. <gg> Anyway, good luck with your social gathering.
Today was another blast-furnace scorcher. As I drove home from working out at around 5:00, it was 101 degrees, but a blue line of rainclouds was forming to the north. Soon the thunderclaps began, and by 6:30 I was getting a heavy rain. I stepped out on the front porch, and it was warm and windy and rainy and steamy all at the same time, but a welcome change from the breezeless dry heat we've had the past few days.
