We're in the heartland of the country altho it's more like the FLAT land of the country......We've driven many miles these past few days and are able to see the landscape for miles and miles. The corn is dried up and the flelds are fallow now and we never seem to catch the horizon. After New England hills and narrow windy roads, the straight interstates are a welcome change and the long distances don't seem so fatiguing. I've had the camera by my side but haven't seen much that was blog-worthy. Altho, at one rest stop, this racing boat certainly caught our eye. Not sure if you can make out the painting but it is of the interior of the boat as if the skin was ripped away.. It also caught the eye of the Highway Patrol as they were walking around it with a measuring tape and later, wrote out a ticket or warning or something. Assuming it was too long and too wide.
We're staying at the Deer Creek Valley RV Park . The first thing you notice when you get close is the hill you need to go down.....an 18% grade !!! It gets your attention but it is short. The next thing is the amount of concrete from the entry and throughout the park. It is all very nice, with grass between the wide open sites. We later found out that the owner also owns a concrete company.....! Campgrounds in the East tend to be older and heavily treed and rather cramped at times.....but out here, everything has plenty of space.
Yesterday we had a visitor perched on the slick side of the coach. He was about 2 inches long and a nice shade of green.
I had a couple more pictures to add but Google is telling me that I've run out of picture storage and need to buy more.....either $2+ or $4+ / month, depending on amount. Has anyone else had to do this ?? Seems like there must be another way.....maybe if I deleted some ..... I'll have to do some searching around to figure this out.
Time to put on my Bronco shirt and settle in for Monday Night Football................
I've heard some people on Quilt Art list complain about running out of picture storage. For the $2 a month you'll get more storage that you will need in a lifetime. I also hear that if you resize your pix to 800 on the largest size that they don't register it. I always resize mine to 1,000 because I want to see a big picture when you click on it. Does that make sense?
ReplyDeleteWhatever you do ... DON'T delete ... if the photos you delete are in your posts, they will no longer display.
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid Google (Picasa as well before it) has a limit on the free space, so when you run out, you have to pay for additional space.
I use Picasa to resize my photos to 450 before uploading. Your blog will load much faster without the weighty photos, which make it sluggish. Also you can use one of the photo websites like Picasa or Flikr to store your pics and they will show up in your blog without actually being there.
