David and I are retired physicians. Still we have travelled and have done pretty much what we wanted .2023 has been a busy, even chaotic year. Our country has been devastated by political turmoil,and it is difficult to fathom the lack of patriotism.
IIn September 1999 we purchased a computer for home use and since have taken numerous courses through Wake Tech to
advance our
knowledge.
I ventured into the world of programming languages and animations. I designed this site in Adobe Go Live and a second
website in XHTML .
Here is a link to it.
In FlashMX I learned enough to design yet another website, which in essence is a little movie. It was a photographic
album about some of the
children of family and friends. Unfortunately FLASH IS NO LONGER ACCEPTED , and I can no longer use it to make slide shows and movies.
In 2023 my high school class had its 67th reunion (hard to believe!). I am webmaster for our class website,
and I hope to keep it up through our next 67 years!
I used to meet with a group of ladies, all former classmates from the Spanish classes we took through Wake Tech. We met once
a week to converse in the language.
Unfortunately, life got in the way and our "tertulia" is no more. In my xhtml class I learned how to use code to design a
website, and there is a page
about a "tertulia" on that site.
I used to watch the Spanish soap operas on Univision, but I have to admit it was very frustrating for me.
Currently I have lessons once a week with my firend, Belen, who is from Ecuador and belong to a group of Spanish speakers who discuss short stories by Latin authors every month.
My friend, Judy, showed me how to use Wordpress to create a blog. It is primarily in Spanish, but I have inserted a page for
reports of trips, which
is in Englsih.
David pursues an active interest in the Internet, gardening, photography, and working out at the gym. He has taken the
vast majority of the pictures
you will see if you
continue reading our website. Unfortunately, he isn't in many of the pictures. I guess that's the price he has to pay for
being the only one who knows how
to use the camera well.
We would like to hear from you.
One of the things I learned in Photoshop and Imageready was to make animations in those programs as well as in Adobe Go Live, LiveMotion, and Flash.One year David's sister sent him an adorable birthday card which featured a squirrel with a camera. Just click on this link and you will see what a metamorphosis can be accomplished! You can navigate to the different parts of the website by clicking on the words on the top of the page to the right of our photograph. The pages are named "Welcome", "Family", "Friends", "Events", and "Trips". I apologize for this but you may have to scroll horizontally to get to the "Trips" icon.
