Default 4th of July

Figured someone would eventually throw this one out there, so why wait.

What's everyone got planned for the 4th? A whole bunch of buddies and I are going rafting down the trukee river, every single college nearby goes up there on the 4th and it turns into a freakin mad house. almost like a mini Mardi-Gras in the middle of a river. Great times. We get like, 2 of those huge coolers and pack them as full as possible with booze and beer and tie it to the raft and pull it like a trailer. Wives aren't aloud of course.

I'll probably do the old married man routine, lots of alcohol, lots of bbq and I am sure one hell of a honey do list to mow through....

I may head to Galveston Saturday.

SS actually Yahoo has a photo site but to have like a extra storage place you can go to photobucket.com
I belive that is right might be .org ??

most of those sites are pretty good big things to watch out for are the ones that allow you to upload to them but then if you want your photos back they charge you for them . they get stock photos that way

also remeber if they say anythign about singing your rights to your pohots away or to them get away and fast that means they own your photos once it is on thier site. you nolonger can print them etc.... with out a payment or thier permission.

yahoos site is a family photo site tye deal and you can invite others in to see them and also you hve a option of making it lkike a hard drive or server on teh net for ya.

msn has one to not real sure about thiers havent used it.

i made a photo group on Yahoo and have it set up as a invite only or i have to allow you to join the group then i dont aprove anyone to look at it and i store alot of photos files out there so if i lose a hard drive again i dont have to reload them all.
then i back everythign up on to a extrenal hard drive and park it on a shelf every other day if i lose somethign now it was my fualt for not doing somethign right LOL

Well heck, I guess if you don't mind missing out on the fun it's all good go to. me personally, I couldn't do it. I need to get away every once in a while, especially in my line of work.
