HardDrive Near Miss!

I ran across The Chief in Scottsdale, AZ. There was a comfortable bench not too far from where this was taken. Late January, Early February is a very nice time to be in Arizona.


Wild Animal Park in Escondido is where I found fuzzy and the Cheetah. The Duck-Like bird lives in Fresno.


Saturday night my main Hard Disk became corrupted and I wasn't able to login to the computer. Sunday morning I installed another copy of Windows XP in another directory then spent the last 2 days culling out some unwanted stuff and re-installing the programs to work with the new installation of Windoze. The hardest part was trying to remember all of my passwords and finding the key files for the software. On the plus side the computer runs a lot faster now and I found some old pictures that I'd taken years ago and forgotten about. I'm just glad it didn't happen to my auxiliary drive where my thousands of pictures are stored. Thankfully, they are backed up.

Fresno/Clovis Visit

Another trip to Fresno/Clovis to spend quality time with my children and grand children. I had a splendid time. Thank you all for the wonderful hospitality, and for being perfect hosts. We observed a Taekwando session, spent the morning at the Fresno Zoo. Collected toads, played in the pool to keep cool and celebrated an early Father's Day. I also got to watch my grand daughters take their weekly swimming lesson. A very nice time indeed!
