Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear - I'm a "Senior Member" now with that LAST post.

And I'm really TOO YOUNG to be a senior.

I'm ONLY 64 YEARS OLD - I WON'T BE 65 TILL THIS NOVEMBER.

I thought 65 was the retirement age!!!

I thought only qualifying for social security and medicare made me a SENIOR!!

The only one older than me, that I know, on these boards, is PSLOldTimer, at the age of 66. Is there anyone older??? 70's, 80's - come on, I know you are lurking!!!!

My age should go in "the three things you don't know about me..." thread.

Am I the OLDEST WOMAN???? I'm so proud of my age because of the other "two things" you don't know about me... Someday I'll post on that thread and clue you in on the other two, and someday I'll even post my picture on the "self-pics" thread. (Oh good, now Judlea's got you all wondering (just like NAH has you all wondering!!!) LOL

But now that you do know, now that my "secret" is out in the open, and now that my "ergonomic break reminder" just popped up..., this time I WILL OBEY MY COMPUTER!!!

Judlea is officially on a break for a while. Feel free to post (move about the county, get up, stretch, do whatever) LOL

Doing my check.... Thanks CarolynB We agree!!!

BBL

Judlea you even posted the tourist map! You are amazing. How can you be so organized? Great pics!!

I went to St. Augustine once, about 2 yrs ago. It is a really nice place. I loved it, from a "tourist" point of view. I think I would like it to live also but don't know enough about it - except for that fort and the shops and horse drawn carriages right along that main strip. I can not, for the life of me, remember the name now!

I just came back to post more pics. My pictures are not at all organized on my computer, and that's a real problem; but in Photobucket I can organize all my pictures into sub albums.

Right now I have 35 sub albums!!! And I'm adding more albums and pictures every day. It's a "private" album, so only my personal family and friends have total access, but I can share all the pictures I want here.

Here's how I post my own pictures :

I use the IE browser that uses "Tabs" - that way I can have both Photobucket and City-Data open at the same time. I have my albums titled: Dolphin/Sunset Cruise; EastCoast St.Augustine, EastCoast Space Center; ExpresstoKeyWest, Lovers Key, Sanibel Canoeing, Sanibel Causeway, Sanibel Island. I have Naples the same way - according to the visit or attraction.

I open the particular album I want to share. Right now, I have EastCoast St. Augustine open. I copy the IMG code from each picture individually. Then I open the tab for City-Data and paste that code into my message. I do that about 8 to 12 times.

Sometimes I put a caption above the picture and sometimes, I don't. You can really copy and paste quickly when you don't put captions, but, of course, I always like to try and HAVE FUN...

I found I don't have to use the paperclip or the insert image listed in the tools, and that makes it even faster... But I always use the "Go Advanced" option.

I really use "Tabs" a lot...

However, having too many tabs open at once is risky. Once I was in the middle of copying and pasting a part of my "Dolphin/Sunset" post and I accidently closed THAT TAB - the tab I was using for my REPLY was GONE. All the work I had done was LOST AND GONE. I had to start all over!!!!

Another "hint" or "tip" is: you can scroll down BELOW your own reply screen - the one you are typing in - and see who else has posted since you started your own reply.

I always use "Preview Post" and then I scroll down to see who else has posted before I "Submit Reply."

My PROBLEM is I'm too much of a perfectionist - I'm "Previewing" my posts constantly to make them better... editing here and there!!! I don't like to come back just to "edit" a post.

If you have any questions about the above be sure and let me know.

Good Night All - Past my bedtime.

Thanks for posting the pictures of Castillo de San Marcos. That's one of my favorite places to visit whenever I'm in St. Augustine.

Love all the pictures! Here's one I took out by the canal behind my house a couple weeks ago... I really need to practice getting really good shots of sunrise and sunset. The colors the sky turns coupled with the 'poofy' (lol) clouds reminds me of paintings by Maxfield Parrish.
