Practice Blog #3

Now I want some practice inserting photos...taken from our trip to Kansas mid-July 2012:


We're in the hot tub with Noah age 4 & Sabra age 2, both will add a year with their birthdays in August.



















Will try another photo...Sabra, me & a cupcake.


















Now let's try a video.  The spa shown above is only about a fourth of the entire spa.  The rest is devoted to a pool for just splashing about.  Or, if you're really serious, the water will move down the length and the swimmer swims in place against the current...sort of an aquatic treadmill.  There's a term for this but I can't think of it at the moment.

Here's 8 seconds of daughter Carole swimming upstream.  (I didn't have the ambition to try it myself...maybe next time.) [I inserted the vid into the blog but it doesn't play in the edit mode or in the preview mode.  So this is the purpose of practicing blogging...to see if it works when distributed.]

 

 
I also noted that while I can place my photos in the center, right or left of the page, the video is only centered.  Also, I cannot comment next to the video, only above or below it.

Let me know if you cannot play the video when you receive this by email.  You may have to go to the blog.  CLICK HERE to view it.

Learning lots of stuff.  That's it for now.
