Blog

Still working at relearning how to post to my blog at harrylange.com. It has been a long time and now I am adding a Chromebook to the mix of operating systems I am using. I bought a Chromebook to be able to carry fly tying videos when we are traveling in a small compact screen. I looked at an Ipad Pro (the new one) with 2Tb of storage and it was just to much money for tying flies.

So lets see if I can use Windows OS, Iphone OS, and Chrome OS and end up with posts about our travels.

Picture of our campsite.

After I write this on the Chromebook I will publish it and then go to my Iphone and put the picture or pictures into the post.

The snow is gone, at least in the campground and the wind is blowing. Still it was a good day.
I’m now learning to type on a Chromebook keyboard. At least I have figured out how to get into my website and get emails sent to harry@harrylange.com. I don’t know why however this keyboard feels a lot different from the Del keyboards I have been typing on for the last 10 years. The keys are really slippery and I am missing the correct key more often, Oh I just figured it out. One of my thumbs is touching the “Touch Pad” and thus moving the cursor around. Think I’ll start writing in Google Docs and then paste into this Blog. We’ll see how that goes. I have been a Microsoft Word person for so long it will just be another thing to learn.

This is where we are camped for a couple of weeks.

We had some snow and it is just us and the campground host.

I will hopefully add a picture of the campground host’s coach from my phone after I publish this from my laptop. Writting this on 5/29/2024 and I also need to get this to post to 5/23/24.

This morning we woke to wind and a winter weather advisory for tonight thru Thursday evening.

I am currently working on a work flow process of posting text to the blog from my laptop and then adding pictures from my phone. On the phone I’ll need to down size to pictures to save space and improve download speeds. I also need to relearn how to use WordPress to publish to my website harrylange.com. It has been a while and what I knew I’ve forgotten and WordPress has made many changes since I last posted to this blog.

Draft –

First day of fly fishing in a long time.

Currently in the process of relearning how to use WordPress and my website.

We are traveling again and looking forward to fishing in Montana. WordPress which powers my website has made a lot of changes since I used it last and I have a lot to learn and relearn.

We woke to snow this morning and I took several pictures with my phone and now I need to learn how to:
1) make the picture file size smaller while they are on my phone.
2) learn how to get them from my phone to this website, that is taking a little doing.

We have updated our internet connection to Starlink and it is working pretty good at this point. The heater in the head came in handy to get the snow off of it this morning.

This is it for know, at this point I’m not sure I can figure out how to get this published. I think there will be a blank spot right after the header because i was going to publish a picture of the snow and I couldn’t get it off my phone to a place I could insert it here. Oh well, I’ll eventually figure it out.
