What a year so far. I'm working another year on a contract that has me traveling a lot in the midwest. So I have an apartment here I travel to and stay in for weeks at a time. Its a central base for the work I do in NJ, Chicago and St Louis. All are under 10 hours to drive to so I can cut back on flying and I love my trips back to my home in Nevada near Carson City. This year I have driven through 2 blizzards, been rerouted across 2 states dues to highway closures and its looking like it will be a chilly drive across this time too. But that is nothing.

I recently started sorting through 10 years of photos that I've stored on my computer. This has proven to be a daunting task just catalog in them nevertheless sorting them into groupings. I used Adobe Lightroom to initially re-import all of my old Apple photo catalogs. After losing my Mackintosh I moved over to a Lenovo carbon. I love the computer but my Time Machine back ups are now inaccessible now that I've moved off of the MacOS. So I have Roughly 80% of my photos imported into Adobe. This is been a pretty big task. But a fun one when you consider I have to review photos from 10 years. I've been across the country several times and lived in the few states. Had a lot of experiences. As my photos start to take shape again I will start posting stuff from cross country. Time was you sorted through boxes of pictures. Today you search clouds. Sign of the times.
