"I'll settle for this slide when we aren't at the park where the BIG slides are."

I have a bazillion photos I want to put up and stories of our summer I want to write, but have had some difficulty making that happen. Our computer just returned to us after two weeks in the repair shop, I've lost my camera charger and so cannot upload new pictures (I refuse to buy a new one until I've searched every nook and cranny in the house), having all three kids home this summer allows less time for computer usage, and the outdoors are regularly beckoning me.
