Where have you been?

Any one have some good tips for getting Picasa to work well with Blogger?

Polish Tatra Mountains

Here is a brief description of the elements, new and old, of my Where have you been? (Whyb?) blog. I hope to eventually have a complete help file but for now I will update this as needed. You will always be able to find help by clicking the "Help" link above in the navigation bar.

Navigation Bar
(blue line with text across the top)

This is an easy way to navigate around Whyb? that will always be available. The names are pretty self explanatory but if you simply move your mouse over one of the words you will find a more detailed description. I hope to vastly improve the gallery and showcase sections but that will have to wait for now.

Labels
(right hand column bottom)
Labels are a way for me to organize my posts which are unfortunately pretty unorganized. I have made this available in case you want to see pictures relating to a specific topic. For example if you want to see all of my photos/posts concerning the California beaches click "CaBeach".

Sorry it has taken me so long to get up to speed with respect to posting again. There have been some difficulties within my family not to mention finding a job. Things are okay in general but I have simply had other things to do than post on my blog.



With that said I wanted to show you our first American apartment. It is a studio apartment located in downtown Long Beach. We are a few blocks from the beach, within walking distance to stores, restaurants, and pubs plus we have our own parking spot - something needed in crowded beach communities.



The top photo shows the view from the front of our apartment building. The beach is just on the far side of the large building with the green roof. The next is of the pool area, very nice. Our apartment is up to the left on the second floor. This bottom one is of the inside of our place. It is not much, just a studio, but it is home for us!

KCAL 9 Report

A few weeks back we were interviewed by Mark Coogen of KCAL 9. It was the fist time either of us had been interviewed and we became quite stars in our little community. In fact, a lady with the Garnica surname contacted me out of the blue to ask if we were distant relatives.

Okay, I am gettin' back in the saddle. We moved to Long Beach and things are progressing nicely. So, time to start blogging again. Over the next few months I am going to be testing some new elements so everyone is going to have to bear with me while I sort things out. I hope to add photo galleries, facebook connectivity, as well a few other interesting elements. We'll see...
