If unable to dance, I will LMAO…

This picture is one of a bunch that I found in an old, water damaged photo album that was in an outbuilding when I moved into this house. That cute little building was destined to be ”my studio”, but it turned out to be far too decrepit. The floor joists are rotten, the trusses are falling down. At first we thought it was salvageable, but it’s not. It’s slated for teardown. Sad, because it’s a  really cute little “gingerbread house”.

So what I really, really want back there, then, is a caboose! Yes! A caboose for my studio. Sadly, between the cost of the caboose and the cost to move it.. well, it’s not gonna happen. I could probably buy a house on 4 acres in my home state for what it would cost!

I’m looking into the alternative of designing my own “caboose” an framing one up. But those of you who know me know that procrastination is a way of life. someday.. someday..

The main reason for this post is to see if I can successfully post a picture. I don’t have lots of time to sit and figure it all out.  Small steps. But here goes, anyway. If this all works and I can figure out how to post pics, you can bet you’ll be seeing an album of my “Finds” as well as my “Woodland Friends”. And if it doesn’t work out, well, I guess I’ll add a link to flickr. (after I update it, since I haven’t been keeping up with that very well.)

Just a quickie to say hello. Thought I’d better jump in here and claim my place before the toaster bandit beat me to the punch. So here I am, and there you are, and when I get things rolling, you’ll be able to read my seemingly endless flow of wit and witticisms. ta for now.

Well, I must admit, I don’t feel very confident here, as yet. WordPress seems very sophisticated, and technical, and …well, grown up. I’m not so sure I’m up to the task. I’ll keep dipping my toes in, though, until I become accustomed.. and eventually I imagine I’ll just dive right in.

I have a favorite photo editing application that I use all the time, even though it’s not the program with the most bells and whistles. It doesn’t save things in all the formats I want to use. It doesn’t do a lot of the things that other applications I have- and know well how to use- do. I use it most often just because it was my first. Way back when, I spent a lot of time learning how to use it fully and effectively. I know it better than I know any others. I am slowly phasing it out, though- because there are other applications that serve my purposes better.

I have an idea that this is a very similar situation.
