An HTML Day

Family

A few days ago the two of us decided that we would begin to learn HTML. We found a free on-line tutorial and started taking turns on doing a couple of lessons at a time, progressing at about the same rate and egging each other on. Then this morning Steve took off. Moving beyond how to insert text, make a header, add color to the background, and create a link, he didn’t move beyond his seat on the sofa in the study. It was evoking great memories of learning Fortan at USF and writing it at FPC. By the end of the day he had invested fourteen hours and had posted a series of interlinked “Hello World” documents to this website.  A couple of hours later he took them down at least for now but don’t be surprised if at some point we have some pages on this site written by one or both of us in HTML. It’s fun stuff.

    This is the very same reason that Rachel made the “Dreaming” flag. She’ll walk into the room:
    R: “Greg, what do you think of the (latest serious issue of the day, or plans for the next day).”
    G: “Huh, wha? Hmmm. Yes”
    R: “Oh. Coding. Right.”

Cozumel & Grand Cayman

Aboard the Norwegian Jewel we’ve made stops in Cozumel, Mexico and Georgetown, Grand Cayman to explore beyond our previous experiences here. Soon we’ll be making our way to ports we’ve not yet explored in the Southern Caribbean.

Winter Magic in Medina

Winter Magic in Medina

By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
