So long till Spring!

Well, here is Free Spirit in her winter clothes !  So long till Spring. Cal Mark cover fits well. A real learning curve to learn how to put the cover on. We now have developed a better way to install the cover.

It's easier to put the cover on when it's laying on the side !!!

Winter camping

Best camping of the year is in the winter, either south or southwest. Traveling winterized is not a real issue. I winterize on the road or wait for a break in the weather to return home. A two week trip to warm weather in Jan. or Feb. really breaks up the long cold winter.

righting photos

Doug,
If you're a Microsoft person, open the picture with Windows Photo Viewer, then right click on the photo and choose "Rotate clockwise" or "Rotate counterclockwise" and save it.

Righting photos

yes, I know how to,do,that. Took this with a phone and it's upright in my photos on my laptop! I have no idea why it came out sideways. I rarely have luck posting pics for them to come out right.

Righting photos

Some pictures or videos I receive from my son have the same problem. I am absolutely sure it is somehow related to the display "auto rotate" feature that many phones have. On most it seems to be badly implemented and causes problems between systems. How about trying to disable the "auto rotate" feature before you take pictures? Just a wild idea...

Photos

Probably worth a try. The problem is some of the new phones/cameras erase the orientation information or encode different orientation information that can't be read by traditional photo uploads. 

The simplest way is to open the pic in a photo editor, put it in the correct position and save. The editor will then write the correct orientation information to the pic and it can be uploaded. FYI, this problem is universal and not just here at SOI. I've been using and looking at all the forums and it is a prevalent issue everywhere.
