give it a try, when you hold your finger down a magnifying glass pops up, still holding your finger down you can navigate around with the cursor.

The balloon show was great. Balloons were launching for two hours. 7:00 - 9:00 am. There were a couple of hundred balloons. Probably 100,000+ people attended. I've never seen that many smiles before.

Parked about a half mile away at Thunderbird Harley Davidson and walked. Got my oil changed afterwards and rode up to Taos, NM. My camera battery pooped out halfway here.

Northeast New Mexico is beautiful and the weather is gorgeous. Very friendly people, though I've only spoken to about twenty. They love living here.

I got a USMC camera strap from the recruiters for my 51 year old 200 lb fat ass doing 10 pull ups. I used to do twenty 8 years ago.  :nixweis

Going to the Royal Gorge in Colorado tomorrow and then Hwy 50 down to Silverton  and Durango.

Porthole, thanks for the tap-n-hold then drag cursor info. It works.

Going to try to get a Flickr on-line account set up. Lots of pics need loaded.

What we've got here is... failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach. So you get what we had here last week, which is the way he wants it... well, he gets it. I don't like it any more than you men

One of the few tricks I know. My wife has an iPad (a SoCal girl) and is always asking how to do this or that - I usually tell her - "I don't have one, don't use one - google it"  :huepfenjump3:

Good - let some of us know how to do the picture transfer.

Rode from Taos to Fort Garland, Co, to Welsenburg, Co, to Westcliffe, Co.

Stopped in Westcliffe to let my camera battery charge up. Lunch at Chappy,s microbrew and restaurant. Iced tea and burgers are good and free Wi-Fi.

What an amazing ride. The Aspen are bright yellow and the mountains are loaded with them. (Same color as my bike.) Highly recommend this route. Gorgeous scenery.

I created a Flickr Pro account and it asks me which photos to load by using select buttons. The select buttons can't locate the photos on my IPad like it does on a PC. I can greate photo groups using Flickr Suite but still have to figure out how to select the group or push the group to Pro. (IPad2 does not have Finder.)

I sure have a lot of photos.

Off to Canon City and the Royal Gorge.

Don, I use the photo bucket app and download to the site from there. This pic (originally taken from a cell phone) was taken from the photo bucket site (on my ipad) and put on the CVO site using the picture icon above. All done from my iPad this morning. Hope you're having a great time!!

What a sneaky way to get a cute puppy picture posted  :P

So, did you upload the pic from your phone to photo bucket?

Don't have an iPad, but frequently get asked "hod do I do this"  :nixweiss:
And I see one on the horizon for me, after the 5 comes out........................

hahaha...isn't she a cutie...all 5 and a half pounds of her!!! With the photobucket app on my ipad it reminds me that I have media to download from another source...camera/iphone...It's pretty cool. Not sure how it does it...I'm technically challenged.. :huepfenjump3: :huepfenjump3: So this morning when I went to download a pic for Don...the photobucket app reminded me that I have "new media" to download...which happened to be some pics of our dog "Peeka"...so there you have it!!!  :huepfenjump3: :huepfenjump3: I do love my ipad...it's great to take on a moto trip!!

Don sent me 27 emails of photos this morning.  I think he's hoping I'll resize them and post for him. :huepfenlol2:

My fingers are too fat and my aim is poor.

Rode from Tulsa to Albuquerque. Simon met me at the motel and we rode over to Sadies for dinner. Weather was perfect. Wore my jacket the whole way.

Balloons tomorrow.

Can't stay awake.

Great ride Don. I hope you tried the ribs, can't wait to get back there again.  Lou

My crystal ball says he's working on putting together a group of photos to post as I write this.


Don, your late......it's after 8, you better get rolling.  Your home work tonight will be group photo posting 101.   :huepfenlol2: :huepfenlol2:
