Easter Eggs

Well, the new site is up and running, but needs some tweaking still. Regardless, here's hoping for the best.

Bought an iPad recently and have been enjoying it immensely. (New iPad from Best Buy with 64 gigs, and their financing for 6-18 months will not last long so take heed. I do like to use the longer term, no interest at Best Buy vs paying all in one chunk when I purchase an expensive tech item. Allows time to find out if the model chosen is a good pick). Still learning the conventions of the New iPad. Absolutely does not replace the console for gaming or the laptop/desk for work. Missed a couple of FB links due to them being flash based. All in all not an issue. Like the camera for quick stuff and the graphics. Yes, battery life is shorter but still lasts all day. Since I am retired, recharging is not an issue. Apple care is a better choice for replacement warranty vs the BB replacement offer. Since my unit may be utilized in a farm tractor GPS system; I got the $100 two year replacement plan.

Teaching my octogenarian mother how to use touch screens. Learning how to use a computer is on her bucket list and I think the pad will work for this task. Used the facetime apps at easter dinner to talk with family farther away. Impressed older folks by the small footprint and fast loading times. We play table top games at family gatherings, usually the more obscure ones brought home by college kids.

Family gatherings in the midwest still focus on great food, especially family favs, multi-generational interactions and spiritual renewal. Weather was great but we need rain here in the heartland. Sang at two Easter church services this year and enjoyed the choir activities, bells, etc. No big epiphany this year, just gratitude for the family I have. And for the gaming family I have come to know on 2o2p. Peace to all.   :)
