Clicker before you go, I use Aviary and Pixlr Express from the Google play store. Apps for mobile. Safe journeys and of course, take lots of Snap Shotz!
Aloha,
Hoku

Thanks Rudolf. Let us know how you do with windows 8! Still looks scary to me! I think the only thing I will have going for me is that the only thing I have to worry about hooking up to it is a printer and I will probably buy one I know is compatible! Good luck!

Windows 8.1 is still a little difficult to get around. I recommend it, but I still run to you tube when stuck. KUMBUNTU is more intuitive, does not run windows software, and I will use it on my little notebook computer for skype an web surfing.

Thanks Hoku... my problem is I have an antique flip open cell phone. I still have to go through the alphabet to type a text! LOL! No apps...and I don't have a clue how to use them! LOL! If it were up to my hubby we would move into the 21st century...but I was born cheap ..much to his dismay! LOL! But I do appreciate your taking the time to let me know!

If you are running XP be careful as Microsoft does not have an upgrade program to do that. You would have to have a tech remove XP and install 8.1. If you are on Windows 7 is to stay with it until you get a new computer. This is the recommendation from my local computer shop as well as an ex Microsoft Windows employee. I do now have 8.1 on both the laptop and my desktop and while it has taken some getting used to, I am beginning to like it.

Looks like you went to a place of beauty and warmth! Welcome back!


It was great temperature in the mid 80's and cooling in the evenings about the time one finished dinner in an outdoor cafe.

Just to let you know I will not be on much for a while. We will be disconnected sometime tomorrow and leave Texas to head back to Canada. Not sure when we will be hooked up again...most likely on the 19th or 20th. But our issue back in Canada is how much usage as we pay by what we use sigh... But I will be on for sure and hopefully by then have some new abstracts to show! Thanks again Simon for keeping us going with words of encouragement and setting a standard to work to! Your work is absolutely stunning and comes from within a great mind with no limits. Also thanks to everyone else as I have certainly learned a lot from everyone. There is a lot of magnificent work here from magnificent minds! Look forward to catching up as soon as I can! Cheers! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

We're sorry to see you go and will definitely miss your smoke pictures. I certainly hope you will be able to post this summer. I wish you a safe and enjoyable trip.

I took pictures of Alcatraz this afternoon and then did some major editing to them. These are the results.
