A few more things done and enjoying this wonderful weather, getting ready to leave here on Tuesday.

Where are we today?

            Less rainy weather, some sunshine and warmer temps sure did make for a much nicer day. Got my coffee fix first thing after breaky and  when the sun came up a few walkabouts the park.
          Not too bad of a day after all at least we had a sunny day. Worked on another year of burning photos to disc, and while that was going on got a couple loads of laundry done, blankets, sheets and comforters. Nice that the laundry is right across from our site.
           It is now taking 6 dvds, to copy one year of photos and just finished 2012, few more years yet to go. Think I need to take less photos!
a pretty nice fall day
           And just puttering around between small projects. After my shower this afternoon, trimmed my hair and beard then Suzie does the final finishing touches.
           Now  before we know it was 3:30, wandered over to Gerry and Melinda's trailer.  Tucker is on the table waiting for a Suzie fix.
Thanks Suzie I needed that
         Chatted with them for a while and a few people who dropped by, then home before 5 to fire up our Weber Q 100.
they love their new to them trailer,
Tucker too.
             The Weber preheated and turned to low, a nice pork loin roast rubbed with olive oil and spiced nicely about 45 minutes and perfect 160f internal temp turning once for a few minutes to crisp up the fat cap.
done to perfection
       Just added that to our salad and enjoyed another tasty meal. Of course leftover pork for lunches etc...
love a tasty pork roast on the weber
so tender
         Now to relax outside for a while on a nice mild fall evening until close to 8 pm. Then time to head inside. Madame Secretary on at 8 ands Suzie' can't miss that!  It is so peaceful here right now, gotta love it !
         Glad that y'all dropped by and hope you had a wonderful fall day as well.

  1. We had one more long day thanks to our club membership. Drove to London to get our new photos and Smart cards. Anyway, it is done. We have been waiting for Madame Secretary too and fully enjoyed the premiere.

    1. It does take time but is an enjoyable hobby, with memories saved.

  5. I take hundreds of pictures. Some turn out fine and others not so much. However, pictures are a wonderful reminder of what you've done and where you've been. It's not so hard to store them. Keep using that camera. You'll be glad you did.

    1. I will always take the pictures but will be more selective on what I keep. O also have about 30 , 3 inch photos albums and a couple of boxes stored at my daughter's, when I did film.

  6. We have found it to be much easier to just transfer the pictures to our external hard drive plus for added protection (not losing our photos) we also put them onto a thumb drive. We are very selective with our photos, we take quite a few of them throughout the day and then whittle them down to the best ones to save. If we have several of one picture but taken at different views we keep only the best one or two of the maybe four or five that we have taken of that same view. It may not be what others do but it works for us.

    1. I will be doing of that, too many thumb drives needed for what I want to save right now. Will do more editing in the future.

    2. We do what Ruth and Kevin. You can buy very small external hard drives for your Mac at Best Buy that will last you years.

    3. I have 3 external hard drives already, but Suzie wants them on DVDs.

  7. Dinner looks great as usual. On the pictures here's an idea... We have a few cameras in use, Shealgh's camera can take pictures at 16mp, but I have it set to take pictues at 8mp. This saves a lot of disk space. Also we have a "Cloud" account and everything gets backed up automatically. No need for DVDs.

    1. I take mine at 5 mp that helps, and can use the cloud but really uses a lot of bandwidth that we have to pay a lot for.

      Delete
    2. Ah, the bandwidth issue, I forgot about that being mobile...

  8. Wish it was not an issue, but at least we have internet.
