In the spirit of  the Week 1 assignment (Lifelong Learners) for Learn & Play at CML...  I turned my problem (not loving Blogger or Wordpress) into a challenge (find a new free site to use). I stumbled upon this new feature in Shutterfly and so far, love it! Please bear with me while I build my new site.  I can't wait to post all the pictures I am going to take on my next HHI trip.

I am so excited, I just booked J. and I's flight to HHI. I found a great price on airfare via Delta right onto the island (Note: Only 2 airlines fly onto the island, Delta and USAirways). Total travel time.... 4 hrs 15 minutes, including the layover in Atlanta. One great thing about HHI airport is it is so small. Literally, we will get off the plane, grab our bags, go out the door, and get into my brother's car. He won't even have to turn off the car. It's super easy. So rather than driving and losing 24 hrs or so in travel time, we only lose about 12 hrs.

Thank you Dewitt for approving my PTO! I will be taking the camera and laptop and blogging "live" the entire time I am there. So, it's really more like a Learn & Play field 

Our assignment this week is to blog about technology and try out Flickr.  Well, I have been using Flickr for years, I like it, but I like Shutterfly better.  I built this site in Shutterfly.  I also like it because I can create a private site for family pictures and then they can purchase "real" pictures from the site if they want. So, Shutterfly has the digital and the hard copy which is exactly what I need for my audience.

On Flickr... it does have cool things. I added the Columbus Metropolitan Library's photostream as one of my link favorites and I created the RESTAURANT pic using Spell with Flickr.
