I was up to Starbucks this morning and found a program that lets me send a live video feed right to Facebook.

Yes I did it but I did not make live. I sent is as a short video just because I can. I am going to look at it now.

Go to my my Face book and let me know what you thing.

I am reinstalling my blog about my Camino. I loaded a new theme and the whole thing crashed. I only had a little of it setup so after an hour trying to fix it I decided it would be much faster to just start over.

In a few hours it should be reinstalled and I can beginning again.

In 2007 I tried to wall across Spain on the Camino de Santiago. Things didn’t work as well I thought they might. Now almost 5 years later I am thinking of trying again.

I have started a new blog that talks about me Walking the walk called “Walk the Walk”

If you didn’t hear the story of my walk in 2007 I wrote a book. “My Camino de Santiago Adventure”

Current weather at Santiago, Spain

Well I am senior to many people and I turned 65 yesterday at 1:40.

That said I think I need to decide what I want to do for the next 88 years. Yest I said “88 years!” I plan to be around for the year 2100. I have started eating a little better and exercising. This will help the process along. And I have a better outlook things.These to thing will help the mind body connection. Maybe that will help the soul get with the program.

Well lets see how this all works out!

MIA

Well I just received an email about a post on another blog of mine. I haven’t been there in so long that I had forgot all about it. It was so long ago there were 12 plug in that needed to be upgraded to be current.
It is still updating now. So in the mean time I thought I would talk to a while here it is only 4 month since I have been here and only one update behind.

So how are you doing?

Since July this year I have scanned thousands of pictures and slides for the family and posted them on the web site. I have started working out 3 days a week to try…not just try but to get more flexible, Stronger and lose some weight. It is working thanks to Michelle’s help.

So you see I am no longer a MIA (Missing in Action)

That’s it for now,

Marty

Went to Iowa

I finally made it to Maquoketa yesterday. it was a good trip. This was the shack down trip to check out this van camper. The last try to make this trip We only got 12 miles when the alternator failed me.
The only mis hap was the outside vent duct was filled with debris and then the inside of the camper.
Well We knew the A/C wasn’t working before we started the trip. It was HOT! as long as we were moving down the road it wasn’t too bad.

So all is left to fix is the leaky sky light, the A/C and a new set of tires. The tires look fine but they are 16 years old. The sky light only leak on rainy days and the A/C has a leak and needs a compressor. It may cost $2,000 to fix all of this. So I will have to shop around and see what prices.

For now my mail thoughts will be the Family History book that I need to have finished and have copies by September. I creating a slide show for the for the Dad’s 100th Birthday Gathering.
