There is a new tool out there called Animoto where you can upload pictures (or get them from Flickr, Facebook, etc.) and turn them into short videos. Add your own music or use something from their library, press and couple of buttons, and you have a nice little video slideshow.

I took my time driving back to IL today. Mostly because I sat and ate lunch and supper while reading a book and because I got off the main road to take some more pictures along the way.

Charley and I went driving today so I could get some pitchers pictures for my photography assignment. He was incredibly well-behaved and held still when I asked him to so that my arm wasn’t jiggled by the leash. It’s great because I like the companionship even if we don’t talk much. [...]

It snowed like crazy yesterday and overnight. The result was icy, unsafe roads this morning with some drifting going on.
So, the campus decided to close this morning at 10 am. I did get to meet some people in the short time we were open. On the way back home I stopped at [...]

My dad was down this weekend to help pack up the apartment in LittleU. Everything is out except for a few things in the fridge, plants, violin, and another couple of things that I can’t picture at the moment. I’ll be meeting him on Friday afternoon in Kewanee for the grand unload into [...]

Found these little turkeys at the Hallmark shop in Kewanee. They were on sale and I couldn’t resist. Now if I just remember that I have them when Thanksgiving rolls around next year.
