Sherri was in the kitchen making coffee this morning when I woke up. Soon I could hear the coffee maker perking away and the pot filling with hot java…and the aroma was out of this world…I just had to get up and pour some in a cup.
Today we had planned on loading some pictures up on our memory stick and try out the new picture frame viewer. We have several disk of pictures to go through so Sherri and I split them up and went through and picked out the pictures that we wanted to display on the screen.
It took us a long time to sort through all the pictures and then load them onto my computer. We then went back through all that we had loaded and culled out the pictures that we did not want. After about 3 hours of loading and unloading we had the first rough draft on the memory stick ready to display.
We loaded the stick into the picture frame and turned it on. How cool is that…but we still needed to delete some of the pictures that proved to be too grainy. Some of the pictures we had taken with our old digital camera that did not have the pixel count that the new one has so they will have to come off.
After we finished with our picture down load it was time to plan lunch. We decided to cook out on the grill. Our choice of food was pork chops. Sherri found a new marinate…so we used it on the chops. I readied the grill and Sherri put together a salad and some baked potatoes. When we got it all ready we sat down to a great meal and was it good.
Soon after eating it was time to walk. We have made it part of our day to walk from now on. We use to walk everyday before I retired and then I would walk when Sherri continued to work… slowly but surely we walked less and less until we stopped altogether. Sometimes it is hard to get motivated when the weather is bad but we are determined to make it happen from now on.
We have not totally decided whether to stay here next week or move on south toward Lake Charles. We will be investigating some alternate places to stay next week. Oh the tuff decisions you have to make when your on the road…

Those picture frames are sure neat gizmos! The hardest part is deciding what to put on them, but they do hold a lot of pics that's for sure.
I love the picture frame. We load and unload all the time. Kids keep growing up so need to take out the old and replace with new. How fun!
We also have the rotating picture frame. What a great way to take family with you. :)
