Thing #4: Frustrated with Flickr
First, blogspot wouldn't let me into my account. I had to enter my password five times. That's not Flickr's fault but it started me out crabby. Then I couldn't figure out how to get the picture icon to upload the picture I found in Flickr. Where to click?!?
Yes, I did watch the video and it was persuasive for the case of storing photos online. Then I looked around in Flickr and found pictures for all the keywords I searched for. They must have a vast collection.
So I did the exercise but once again felt like a trained monkey walking through steps. Click, click, save where?, remember jpeg, pull hair out, click, click, post. Oh, did that actually work? (And why do they keep listing bizarre labels for this post at the bottom? Scooters? Another lesson, I guess.)
I have no clue if this photo will actually appear. I hope it does because Moss Landing, CA, is my dream retirement location. Maybe I'll live in a beach shack with no electricity so I won't have any computers to drive me crazy.

That's a beautiful photo! Nice work! Be careful, there may be a few of us joining you in your retirement shack. See ya there!
The bizarre Labels get covered in Thing 11. Hang in there.
It may have been frustrating but you made it work. Yay!
However, your picture made me look out the window at my muddy brown yard and the dirty snow in utter dismay. I need a beach!
