Jon and I continued to use our new little slide scanner to transfer images to the HP computer and on to a Flash Drive. We picked up some new techniques in the process and I was able to move a box of 22 slides through in about 10 minutes. Jon is doing some additional research to see how we need to identify each individual slide to be able to "pull-up" the number of pictures in the data base that meets the search criteria. It would be similar to the system that Google makes available on my blog pages. For example, I can enter "son Jon"in the "search block" and 7-8 blog pages will pop-up from the data base of several thousand pages. We are working on a data base now, that may someday, make it all possible.
We took a break mid-afternoon and drove up past the Hughes house construction. While the progress wasn't as impressive as yesterday, the fiber board was put on the garage and end-tresses. There was more bracing going on inside and a covering has been put over the outside wall fiber board. While the weather has been in the mid-90's, it has aided the construction. Hopefully, they will be able to get it closed in prior to any storms of lengthy rainy stretches. Ben's birthday is today and Carolyn's will be this Saturday, so the progress this week on their house has been a nice present.
