| | The view from where I'm sitting | |
We're camping at McIver State Park. John is napping, the kids are fighting over Monopoly and I'm working.  I brought my laptop and GPRS card, so I'm online and checking in with my students. I uploaded a picture from my phone to my laptop via bluetooth and ftp'd it to my server, then linked to it there.
I love technology.
How is your view?

| | Re The view from where I'm sitting | | Oh my Deb. Your view beats mine. Dark, dreary and raining. Thunderstorms. Enjoy your view. It is exceptional.

| | Re The view from where I'm sitting | | Oh wow. That definitely beats the view I have to look at. Which at the moment is an empty pizza box.
Guess I'll go console myself with a view of a full box of Starbucks Mud Pies.
Have a great time on your trip! And stop working.

| | Re The view from where I'm sitting | | LOL, if I shut the laptop, I'll have to cook or something. This is my vacation from all that. I just look busy.  And, Slick, I have never enjoyed holding a stick over a body of water in order to snare a poor defenseless fishie. I bought steaks at Costco. That's the menu for tonight with s'mores for dessert.
I'll see if I can get my picture of Mt. Hood posted. It's looking the other direction but I can't get my bluetooth connected now.

| | Re The view from where I'm sitting | | My view was my living room, where I was hiding from the heat wave. I like yours better, Deb.  |  | |
