Thanks Cy. My site is coming along. I'm first learning how to create mySQL tables and join them to user tables - done. Now I just need to populate my tables with data

Then I need to add content, lots and lots of content. Fortunately I took over 5,000 photos this summer.

I look for pictures of llamas, then discussions of climate change, exercise regimens, and "sierra vs. sierras". After that everything is icing on the cake.

Big tetons.
