Testing 123

This is just a mini-post to see if I've set up my road-blogging account correctly. I hate to think of the world without Brush and Baren for nearly a month! (Don't you?)
We celebrated Earth Day with a hike on the beloved North Backbone trail this morning. About halfway along the path is a wide draw that the map calls Dead Horse Gulch. We'd never seen a carcass there (thank goodness), and had always wondered how it got its name.
Lo and behold! Today we found this just off the trail, and suddenly the world made sense.
Well, sort of.

- Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

Update: Well, I can see that I don't have nearly the controls from my phone that I do from my computer (or maybe I do but I just haven't found them yet). I don't like that embiggening the image goes to Picassa... I'll have to see if I can work around that. But that still worked pretty slick. I may get to post from my Big Trip after all! (All I'll need is to find WIFI.) Cool.

  1. If you don't like Picassa try Instragram. I love it!

  2. I have Instagram, (fun!)... the issue seems to be that BlogPress, although it stores images to Picasa just like Blogger does, it doesn't allow for the "slideshow" feature of Blogger. Clicking on images takes you to Picassa instead of just opening them in a window.

    It's just me being fussy about blog aesthetics. ;-) It's marvelously cool to be able to write and post from my phone... Sherrie stumbles into the 21st century.

  3. Wow! I haven't tried that yet from my iPhone. I'll have to see if I can do it on my blog. But not this week. I just got home.... Love the dead horse "carcass"!

 It can't be avoided anymore. It's time to address the details of this bird.  As many have figured out from the bird's silhouett...
