As most of you know I am on vacation right now…off in Colorado for family visits and mountain retreats 😉
Although I am not due to return until the 31st of the month, I thought it would be fun to share some pictures from my camping trip to the Gore Mountain Range located within the Colorado Rockies. I am a hiker at heart.
At first I thought it might be fun to create a “flip book” from my assortment of pics (flip books read just like regular books and would make great online picture albums)…but then it suddenly dawned on me that this was a great opportunity to practice my Camtasia and Power Point skills by creating a video presentation with my camping pictures.

I have to tell you that in my two years of blogging, this blog post idea might be the most fun I’ve had yet.
