optimumi nsta ller: I’m getting the hang of it

After posting my dismay with blogger last night, several folks commented that I should indeed investigate using Live Writer to write my blog each night. So, I googled it and began to download the program. At one point I was asked which programs I wanted to download, and I chose only Live Writer. Yea right! The download took a half hour and included all of the products. So much for choosing what I wanted. :)

Anyway, I gave it a little try this afternoon, and it worked. There is a learning curve involved here, so you’ll have to be patient while I learn the ropes. One of the blogs that I read everyday and admire is TRAVEL WITH THE BAYFIELD BUNCH :)). Al, from Bayfield, Ontario, is one of the people that recommended Live Writer, so I’m practicing imbedding a link with his blog. Hopefully, I did it correctly. You should be able to click on the highlighted area and go directly to his blog.

SAM suggested I try several other things with my pictures, but I haven’t figured out how to do that yet. :) This is Mount Rainier in Washington state. I’m just going to use some photos from my travels to tinker around in this evening’s blog post.

I’m already liking that misspellings are underlined while I type, and I can right click on the word to get suggested spellings. Cool beans!!

This morning, I was on the road a little before 8:00 to take the Focus in for the repairs. They gave me a rental car for the next two or three days, so I’m free to move around.

Maybe one of you readers can tell me how I could label photos such as this. I’d like it to say “the salmon run at the Bandon Fish Hatchery in Oregon.”
