Thanksfor the pics Michelle. It was great to meet everyone. I hope all the C-hogs hubby lost to me didnt cause his hair loss.. Even my kids admitted they had fun. Although when went to Randys, my oldest asked who all these people are. Dawn said your dad flys with some of them or against them. I thought Dawn remembered the stroller for Aiden but she forgot. I was hoping it was going to be the whole group for the tour. I think our guide flew some of the displays. Just give Dawn a shout . <S> Ed

By the way Kvou75 and Jeff, that Navy plane we seen at Boeing field was a P-8A Poseidon Made from a 737-800.
I had a psychic girlfiend once .. but she left me before we met.

I flew as sensor operator on P3-C Orion '75-'76 out of NAS Agana, Guam.
Hope that doesn't date me too much... :old:

OK!!
Enough screwing around!
Here is the link to my photos from the Meet.
I can't figure out how to display them on THIS page.....so they are on my website. Just click the link. Once you get there, feel free to right click and save any of the photos you want! Sorry if they are a little big, I did resize them, but for some reason they are still displaying fairly large.

If someone can steer me towards the liturature with the instructions to insert photos IN the post I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Hope your summers are starting out great!! :airplane:

I have a handful of players/friends who ask me to upload their pics all the time because it is such a royal pain in the butt to do!
Not so much hard but, time consuming so I will do a visual step by step with details for them and post a copy here too.


Give me a week or so but, it will be worth it.


For now if you make sure your pics are in .jpeg format and you register at webshots.com that would help get started.
I have had my webshots account since 1991 and I love it.
You can format your pics to a .jpeg in Ultimate Paint which is also free and a great program.
If you get Ultimate Paint and Webshots I can walk you through it backwards I know it that well.


That should be good to start before I get the tutorial up ... if you have any questions doing that feel free to PM me.


Check back here for details after the above ...

Thanks Shegotya. And before anyone says anything... for the record that is a 1935 Waco UKC-S not UMC.

Your welcome. Glad you caught that mistake ... I just copied from your text so I didn't know you made a typo.
