Yes, I have become a frequent Twit, spending way too much time on the site. There is actually a fair bit of breaking news to be found on Twitter, and a lot of great humor. Anyone who lived through the 1970s will remember the TV show, All in the Family, with curmudgeon Archie Bunker in …
I just love what I can do with the photos I take with my iPhone 13 Pro's cameras. It's with me wherever I go, so I'm always ready to spot unexpected photo ops. And post-production on my Mac is really easy, too. Reflections and shadows have always been some of my favorite subjects, and I …

The destination for our road trip was Boise, Idaho. It had been a while since we had been there (2013). The convention hotel was located in the center of downtown Boise, and during the conference we didn't venture very far outside the hotel.
