And just so youse all know, Mary sent Ruthy more pics but they won't migrate from her phone to the email address to post them... and y'all can hush about how easy it is to migrate pics from phone to website because all y'all know I'm going to BLOW SOMETHING UP! But still trying!

  1. Good morning, Seekerville!

    Not everyone is in San Antonio! Several of us are at home, putting our time to good use. :-)

    But for those who are there - Have fun! Make memories! Learn tons of stuff!

  2. Hi Jan I figured out how to load more pictures!!! Still not from my phone though. I uploaded them from my phone to my computer, texted them actually, then saved them to my computer and loaded them here...the handy eighteen step process.

  3. Love the pics! I use the same technique as Mary to load pics...which takes so much time.

    Doesn't everyone look like they're having fun at ACFW! Wish we could all be there. Next year!

    I'm working on a synopsis for my new story. Who likes to work on synopses? Hmmm? I don't see anyone raising their hand.

    Enjoy the weekend, dear friends! Looks like another great upcoming week in Seekerville!
