    • A Few Questions and Comments
      3

      Okay, so first off, Lisa, your"hooch" is indeed the beginnings of cheap alcohol, so I stand my ground and declare myself winner of the"guess what this is" contest. Yeast is a one-celled fungus that converts sugar and starch into carbon dioxide bubbles and alcohol. This has made it a useful ally in the production of bread, beer, and wine. There are many varieties of yeast. Bread is made with baker's yeast, which creates lots of bubbles that become trapped in the dough, making the bread rise so...

    • Ooops! I Forgot to Title This One - More Updates
      1

      I did discover that the"Rename" function under Photos is not working correctly so I'm working to fix that right now. In addition, I have now added a basic navigation window for the photos themselves. When you click on a photo thumbnail, it now opens a new popup window with Previous and Next links to navigate through the photos without going back to the thumnail page. I noticed there was a slight issue with the style sheets though, so please clear your cache prior to clicking on a thumbnail...

      Okay, I am still working on quite a few things, but there are a few more updates in place now that should make things easier to navigate and a little quicker to load.Since loading every single blog each time can take longer, you now have the option of displaying the blogs in a"Full" format or a"List" format.

    • Photo Uploading

      Okay, although I didn't originally plan it, I have now seen several references to uploading new photos. I'm not sure why I didn't account for it. I guess I was just too focused on the blog code for the moment. But yes, this is a very good idea. I am currently working on implementing said feature and will let you know once it's deployed and ready to test. Keep in mind, for bandwidth reasons, I'll have to keep the file sizes to a minimum. Sorry, no 10MB pics. Trust me, you wouldn't want to try...

    • Mid-Month Madness

      We realize that it's only been a little over a month since the last newsletter, but we decided to give everyone an update since the changes on our end have been rather numerous as of late. As we mentioned in the previous newsletter, we had planned on some major renovations both inside and outside the house. We just wanted to thank Dad with extreme sincerity for all the help and hard work over the course of his and Peggy's recent visit. Once again, we managed to accomplish several rather...
