This post is about using a lot of Google stuff. There are a lot of folks that are calling applications like Picasa and Chrome Cloud applications. I am using Chrome for the first time to write in my Blog. I also used Picasa on my computer to organize my images and upload them to web albums. I can embed Flash slide shows in my posts with out doing any programming. Check out the images from my trip to the Cadillac Ranch.
I am planning on upgrading my free Google storage account so that I can load all of my 21GB of images on Google servers. Thsi will be a backup and a way to publish my images when I want to on my Blog or other web sites.
Well I went to another amazing ACL festival this weekend.
So 11-15 inches of rain has fallen in Marble Falls last night. For the past 10 days it has been raining in Central Texas. I could not shred the fields out at my ranch near Winchester Texas this weekend because the ground was soggy.
Zak flew into Houston airport on Saturday December 23, 2006. The first thing that we did on Sunday was to go to a Texan game. We saw the Texas beat the Colts for the first time in franchise history. This was the first time that Zak has attended an NFL game. It was the second time that I had attended a NFL game. I had attended a LA 
Rams game with my father years ago when I was about Zak’s age now (12)
The big Stargate Trailer was hold up at the Brazos Bend State Park. We stayed there for a few days and then went back to Austin. On Christmas day we went to Sylvia’s son’s house for a visit.
Zak and I headed for the gulf coast. I wanted to show Zak the town of Corpus Christi. We drove to Goose Island State Park and parked the pig. We did a lot of fun activities like visit the Aquarium, the air crft carrier Lexington and Mustang Island.
Houston was the next stop on Zak’s whirl-wind tour. 
Zak wanted to visit a museum so we went to the Houston Museum of Natural Science. There are a lot of great things in this museum so we spent 10 hours there. We visited the planitarium and watched the movie A Night at the Museum in the IMAX theater.
If you want to see all the pictures taken over the holidays refer to the list below.
