Botanical tour of the ridge. I was trying out the "macro" button on the new camera. Took a few close-ups of some of the flowers up behind the backyard. Wrote some comments into the html files that iPhoto's "export" command generated.

This one shows little pink flowers in the sand: much of this part of Ben Lomond has soil like beach sand. A few months ago, I scanned and OCR'd a 1996 Sunset magazine article about "The sand islands of Ben Lomond".

I was also trying out how iPhoto does its "export-to-html". It'd be nice if iPhoto would link the photos with next/previous links like I did by hand. Would also be nice if it would put the commentary about an image (that I typed into its photo album) into the html page that it creates for the image.

Still, it provides a nice layout and structure -- I didn't have to do too much of the typing. [GIGO: words unreadable aloud]
