This initial blog post concerns the launching of our journey into the world of Library 2.0. I've read through the guidelines, looked at some of the blogs and watched the online tutorial of 7 1/2 habits. . . What I can relate to is accepting responsibility for my own learning. I've not had any formal computer training and everything I've learned on the computer has been by trial and error. I'll ask for help if I need it but I will try to work it out before I ask. I also view this entire exercise as a challenge. I hope I can have fun and "play"--that will be the hardest because I want to give this project my best effort.
This is definitely fun so far if not a little uncreative at first; look forward to catching on to this and learning how to post photos. When I see how everyone interconnects online, I'm amazed. Obviously, I've created a template and registered my blog.
Big Brown Wins the Preakness
I am still sad over the loss of Eight Belles at the Kentucky Derby while I delighted in Big Brown's decisive win. After I watched the Florida Derby in early spring, I knew Big Brown would be a contender for the Triple Crown. His looks remind me of Barbaro. Well he did it again folks at the Preakness. I would love to see him win the Triple Crown. He's an awesome horse.
Thing 10 was created from BlinkYou.com
I have edited this caption since I decided to keep it on my blog as an early attempt in Thing 10 to post image generators. It was very frustrating until I got the hang of doing this. I have played around with re-sizing image generators, removing them if too big, moving them around my blog. Alas, I sort of like this one because of liking cats and butterflies. So I will leave it here. I am still learning as I go on.
Barbaro on You Tube
This is one of my favorite tributes to the beloved Barbaro, forever in my heart:
Secretariat's Belmont Race
Many horseracing fans hoped that Barbaro would win the Triple Crown and he was often compared to Secretariat, known fondly as Big Red. Secretariat's Belmont record still stands. If you love horses and have time to watch this, it's worth it. I am lucky enough to have witnessed this Triple Crown victory. I was a race fan even back then:
