Labor Day and I’m here

What a dummy, I sould be going to be beach today.  I hear it will be nice till the rains come in and you can fight off the jelly fish, just bring some vinager and you’ll be OK.  Somehow that just doesn;t sound like something I want to do besides, with the office closed maybe I can catch up and process thouse couple hundred pics that have fallen through the cracks over the past several months I haven’t had time to get to.

Putting a pic of the backend os Spacely’s coach on one of the 3 rotating on the front page means I finally figured out how to process pics on the other computer.  I can’t explain it but the one ole timer lap top using XP that I most knew how to work gave me a blue screen of death…. hope my  word program can be recovered.. the rest of it has been taken over by the other 2… except processing pics and it looks like I may have that one.  Fell accross the finish line with my fingernaiols on THAT one I must say!  So let me verify I can do it, here comes a recent pic  OASI-flare-2

Oops, where is the thumbnail button…. Jaaaammmmeeessss, help me Mr. Wizard I’m fallingggggggg…..

I’ll have to figure this one before I can post pics here, stay tuned on that one.

What I was doing pics to explain is those flares on Spaceley’s coach were made by a company from the past.. OASI  (Ocean Atlantic) as they were known.  The molds were burned in a marina fire where the parts were being made.  The style was a bit on the 80’s side so no one remade the mold and honestly I’m happy.  Man, it’s a *&^$@ to get in there and work on the air bags with that thing covering it.  Hey but they are there and it does offer the look the coach stands for.  I have a pic of tghat but I didn’t wanna blow it at you.  Here’s the pic Spacely-42

Tell ya what, go have fun on Labor Day, I’m going to get a better handle on this raft of pics I need to process and have a session with James on how to make thumbnails.

Enjoy the day, we’ll see ya later…  Flatbed & Jim  Oh, so now you want to shoot thumbnails.. you forkn bastage… I’ll be back…

OK, lets try this one  Onan-type-2-points  Ahhh got is!  This is the Onan generator Type 2 point system we replaced with that stupid type 1 point set up that you have to work with a mirror to adjust.  Man, what was somebody smokn when they did THAT one!  Anyway, my prograg was creating gif files instead of jpg ones.  I sound like I’m really on this… I fell and pushed the right button…

Lemme go ahead and do all these pics I have.. bet there will be some neat stuff, I’ll recap what I find as I go.  See ya later and have a great day…

OK, further proof it wasn’t a fluke, just posted this pic on the front page AND here without creating the Staypuff Marshmellow Man  Tint-James-2 See that, I can’t fool John D., he saw me taking a pic… stike a pose there John…  Those are James windows with 2 layers of 20% meatalized reflective window tint.  The coach looks like an inkwell tube with glass sides…  Hey, it will be effective on heat and cool I will say that!

    Just my opinion, but I like your posts better with the full-size pics instead of the thumbnails. At least on my computer, the thumbnails are pretty small, and having the full-size image right in the post saves a click.
