Happy Easter, everyone.
Here is our Easter card compliments of Jacquie Lawson:
We hope everyone has a good day.
Yesterday we did a lot of yard work. Pam cleaned up around all the fence edges and I mowed the lawn and weed-whacked around the edges. It is nice to have everything tidy and to smell the fresh-cut grass. Along with grocery shopping and other routine chores the day was quite full of activity.
In the past I created my Galleries page so I could keep track of various photo collections including photos I had posted in this blog. The last week I created a different type of page, one with links to video clips. This lets me access various video clips from a single page. It makes it easier to take another look at these clips without having to find the blog post that contained them. Take a look and let me know what you think. The new page is Video and there is a link to it from our home page as well.
That’s it for now. Thanks for looking in!
Pam’s Two Cents Worth:
It has been a week of death – and birth.
Isadora, AKA Izzy
Isadora, one of the moms that had kittens in our master bathroom last Summer, had to be euthanized this week as she was in acute kidney failure. Only three years old and tame as can be, Izzy had at least two litters we know of (maybe more) in her short life. Someone had domesticated and dumped her. Izzy’s story is everything that is wrong with animal rescue challenges in De Beque. A gentle soul, Izzy was a quiet addition to our garage colony this Winter and will be missed.
This Easter morning I found one of the feral cats had given birth to a litter of kittens in the Dogloo on our back deck. This particular cat has resisted trapping in the past, and I think it best to just leave her be. No doubt she will move her kittens somewhere else in the next few days.
And so it goes…
Happy Trails.
Happy Easter…
Looks like a general “high country” warm-up, though (they’re) projecting snow on the 28th!
The video indexing seems to work well — somewhat surprised you used the 1921-22 photo for “Family”…
Larry:
Thanks for the note. I thought the ’21 – ’22 photo was a nice touch, hope you approve.
I tried several approached to the video, iFrame and HTML5 amoung them. Problem is with spotty browser support even though the coding is far easier. I went back to the Cool Iris coding as it seems to be far more universal.
Goal for this summer is better technique and better audio. I bought an external mic for the recorder in hopes it will improve the audio tracks.
aw, I’m so sorry about Izzy. She was a beautiful girl and lucky to have you give her a safe life and a peaceful goodbye
