oh thanks.. I at one time was searching the Internet for pix & then had a duh moment.. I have hundreds of gig of pix.. on several computers & many external hard drives.

Almost anything I want in the outdoors is there.. so I am trying to use them. I often just put them together very hurriedly Sun morning however. This winter I am hoping to take time to do some searching out of many of my fav pix.

I have promised Meg to also get flower pix to her (one of her specialities).. I have many..but they are scattered within the other groups. I organize my pix by year,month, date..and after the date put the type of outing..Like

0110606HikePenBirthdayPenPP

that is Nov 6, O6 = what I did, where (Pen is short for Peninsula) event if any & the PP is the main person I was with.I have one or two almost every day & some of the outings have 500 or more pix. so it is a big job to catalog etc.

NOW, I often have a slew of flower pix associated with one. Or often various animal/fowl.. like blue heron, geese, turtles, deer etc.. whatever we come accross on outings.

Dinner in Montana

This is one of the best thing I've read in ages!!!!! I wish I could go there for dinner!!!!


Montana Restaurant:
This is a great story! The radio station America FM was doing one of its "Is Anyone Listening?" bits this morning. The first question was, "Ever have a celebrity pull up with the 'Do you know who I am?' routine?"
A woman called in and said that a few years a go, while visiting her cattle rancher uncle in Billings, MT, she had occasion to go to dinner at a restaurant that does not take reservations. The wait was about 45 minutes; many ranchers and their wives were waiting.

Ted Turner and his ex-wife Jane Fonda came in the restaurant and wanted a table. The hostess informed them that they'd have to wait 45 minutes. Jane Fonda asked the hostess, "Do you know who I am?" The hostess answered, ?Yes, but you'll have to wait 45 minutes." Then Jane asked if the manager was in. When the manager came out, he asked, "May I help you?" "Do you know who we are?" both Ted and Jane asked. "Yes, but these folks have been waiting, and I can't put you ahead of them."

Then Ted asked to speak to the owner. The owner came out, and Jane again asked, "Do you know who I am?" The owner answered, "Yes, I do. Do you know who I am? I am the owner of this restaurant and I am a Vietnam Veteran. Not only will you not get a table ahead of my friends and neighbors who have been waiting here, but you also will not be eating in my restaurant tonight or any night. Good bye."

Only in America - what a great country.

To all who received this e-mail, this is a true story and the name of the steak house is:
Sir Scott's Oasis Steakhouse, 204 W. Main, Manhattan , MT 59741 (406) 284-6929

If you ever get there, give this fellow a sharp salute, buy a steak, and tip the waitress. Keep passing this on. We should never forget our national traitor! And let's not forget what "our gal" Hillary said to the troops in Iraq , "This war has no support from the American public."

You enjoy photography and I do too, but I have over thousand graphics in one computer and over half are animated gifs - high in bytes.

My folders are pretty specific and if it is an animal in a field of flowers, it may be copied to both 'animals' and 'flowers'.

Without folders to organize things it would be hopeless, lol.
