Feel free to hang out as long as you'd like, just watch out for the dust bunnies and plywood from the perpetual construction this site seems to be under.


Photos and Flickr
by Scott

3 years ago I managed to lose the original of our digital photos. Fortunately, I managed to retrieve them off my iPod, but they were much lower quality. After buying our new camera two years ago we quickly ran out of space on the external 40GB Hard Drive I was using to store the photos so I purchased a huge 500GB external drive. Two weeks ago, it started acting up and last week it died. For about 2 days I thought I had lost them all. Luckily, the 40GB drive that I was using before the 500GB still had every photo up to Dec 10, 2007.

So I've decided it's time to come up with a method for backing up all our digital photos and not have to worry about losing them to mechanical problems, theft, or fire. So I purchased a Pro Flickr account and am in the process of sending every photo in there 3MB per photo glory. It may take a month or so because I'm only doing it at night and early morning and we have over 7,000 photos.

I'm letting you know so that you don't have to wait for me to burn them to a CD for you. You can just download them images yourself. Our flickr account is located here: http://flickr.com/photos/bowlingkyler/.

Just so you know, I am not making every photo available to the public. If you want access to all photos, you have to have a Flickr account and I will need to set you up as a contact. So just let me know your flickr username, and I'll get you on there.

I'm glad you posted these. I'm so sad I missed the KG this year - but the Walk trumps fun :) Fall is approaching and we should think about going to the pumpkin patch.
