New Sony Bloggie
Have you seen the Sony Bloggie? It may be the easiest video (MP4 HD) and still camera I've ever used. With the attached USB connector, transferring video to the Internet is easy! I got to play with the Bloggie today at the New Harmony Kunsfest. It was another beautiful weekend of festivals and fall fun! This short example from the Bloggie was taken at the roofless church.

Fun at Solitude
Ever wonder what you'll do with your time when you retire? This retired history teacher has created a pioneer village where he shares the history of our Posey County. We had some delicious burgoo in Solitude last Thursday. Thanks Jerry!
Another retiree, Mary Dixon, has written a poetry book and will soon have a book signing at Barnes & Noble. She asked me to create a place for her on the web. Check out her accomplishments at http://www.faithfirstpoetry.blogspot.com/

Grab your Hat and Read with the Cat!
Read Across America 2013-
In celebration of NEA's Read Across America and Theodore Giesel's birthday on March 2, Mrs. O'Risky's readers are logging 1 mile per book point, leaving from the Statue of Liberty, and heading to the Golden Gate Bridge! We obtain "miles" by reading books and testing well on them.
Grab the map and move it around to see our markers. Click on each marker on the map to see who is driving, reading, testing, and where we are today! We are expected to begin on Feb. 1 and arrive in California on March the 1st.
