I misspelled "YOLO" 😏 ... and on another note, I think I might be losing my mind (or at least some of my images) Something I read online prompted me to look for some images of a church I remember taking some years back. The church is located on the highway I regularly traveled between my home in Raleigh & Asheboro, NC while I was in school at Randolph Community College That gives me a time-frame. I copy my images onto my hard-drive in folders "YYYYMMDD-What_was_I_photographing_at_the_time" ... (and then saved to my server) The photos should be on the server between August 2005 - August 2006 OR March 2010 - August 2011 (my first year & delayed second year) There should be a folder something like 20YYMMDD-Church_on_hwy64 (or -Church_at_Siler_City) I can't find a folder. And it's nowhere in the years in between my school dates or since. I've resorted to just looking through every folder from 2005 thru 2023 and so far don't find the images. But I remember stopping one time while I was on the way to Asheboro and taking photos. I think it might have been about the time in May or June 2011 when someone proposed a Pentax COOP. I don't know whatever came from that, but I took some photos and they are in the area where the church is located. I don't think I took them with a film camera, but it looks like I'm going to have to dig out everything I've done on film since 2005. ... something I really need to do anyway. And I've got to work out how to scan my 645 negatives & transparencies. Also 4x5. But everything has been SUPER disorganized since I moved into this house. It's because it's so much smaller than my old house there's just no room to organize properly. -- Vivere in aeternum aut mori conatur -- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG antivirus software. www.avg.com
