Catching Up On Stuff

(Avon Park, FL) Hi 69 Lo 53 -- We had a busy day getting a few little things done. I worked all day on backing up all of my photos from our 2012 travels. Every couple of months I back up my photos to an external hard drive, but today I transferred all the 2012 photos to DVD's as an extra back up. It took a total of six DVD's, which is a lot of pictures! (Since we rarely print our photos, my camera is set to take smaller file sizes.) I feel better knowing they're backed up in two different locations. Jim has his own photo collection that he keeps backed up on two external drives.

I want to remind all our readers to check the right side of the blog for the map, parks we've stayed, and highlights of our summer travels. (If you read the mobile version of our blog on a smart phone you have to be in full web view to see them.) I've noted a lot of info on the parks we've stayed, including what we thought of them and the prices. I plan to do a full 2012 recap on December 12, the anniversary of our third year as full timers.

Jim worked on some photo-related projects most of the day, and also did the laundry and got in a one-hour walk. I did my walk with Kathleen. Today was the first time I could speed up a bit, from 22 minutes per mile to 20. It's not much, but it's progress. I'm hoping to still go to the Zumba sessions, it can only get better. I also plan to use the equipment in the park's fitness room. There's plenty ways to   keep me moving.

It was another great day under the sun here in Florida. We're hoping it continues to be nice. It's getting colder up North.
