tractor work, and my wife is out of the country ... I got bored.

ROFF's Dave Mohnsen showed me how to make slideshows from my fishin'
pictures, and even add background music. So I grabbed a bunch of
digitals from last summer and some music I thought suits an elegant
moderate action rod, delicate presentations, and my much beloved flat
springcreek waters and made a slideshow.

It's a HUGE file ( 12MB) but if you have a fast connection and want to see
where I spend my summers and share, with me, some places I dearly love,
download it and run .... enjoy. I may do a much smaller, more
selective, version without music for the bandwidth impaired, later G

Great show Larry. I recognize a lot of those places. The pictures are
excellent.

Thanks,

Way cool, Larry! Thanks for sharing.

Love my broadband. That 12MB translates to about 30 seconds.

I live in the last house on a dead end country road. The phone wires here
are so old that at one point about 200 yards up the road they actually go
through a tree over a foot deep ... it has grown around them. I stopped
to complain to a serviceman about cracks and pops and static a couple years
ago and he told me, "I've never seen wires with so many splices as on this
road." And, when I signed up at a local ISP and gave my address he
instantly said, " OH, well if you live out there we can't guarantee you good
service, we've had nothing but trouble in that area."

Sure, I'm gullible to the persuaders and ad men and will admit I often dream
of material items beyond my reach. But, I don't REALLY want a Boron
self-casting fly rod, or a truck with built-in satellite guidance systems
for the sense of direction impaired. I AM however, tired, of a bamboo
Internet connection G Took 90+ minutes to upload that file to my
server .... which it always amazes me is in Maryland in the heart of
'Netland.

always amazes me when i see the other worldly appearance of where you
fish, compared to my home waters in the appalachians.

sorry to hear that .... ESC works to go back to desktop on my machine ....
I've never used the program before and feared others might report
difficulties
