To watch video on Gather
you need the latest Macromedia Flash Player software.
Would you like to install it now?

I shot this with my new camera phone, a few days before I left Canada, for my latest stay in Arizona. Gather doesn't take the format that my phone uses, so I had to use some screwy software. Anyway, this should give you an idea of where I spend most of my time, when I'm not in Arizona with Walker.

Ash.

You'll have to look closely. LOL That was taken with my little teeny tiny camera phone, not with the new video camera your Dad gave me, because I dind't get that till I got here to Arizona. Also, I had to use a FREE video converter, hense the watermark ad, but it's all there. ;-)

I found this to be very blurry but it was wonderful to hear your actual voice!

Leah Christensen Feb 25, 2008, 5:45pm EST

Thank you Claire.

It is cool to hear your voice!

Thanks Donna. That's one of the cool things about video.

The AVI I converted was fine last night (no watermark). I don't understand why it wouldn't upload here.

reply to this comment

Leah Christensen Feb 25, 2008, 10:29pm EST

Walker.

It's not that it woudln't upload, it's that the video lagged behind the autio. When the audio was done, the video was only halfway throuh. Don't ask me why, that's just what happened.

It looks homey and inviting - especially the fireplace. It's nice to hear your voice!

Looks like a nice place to hang out

This looks like a nice place from what I can see of it.

I like your 2nd home Leah....
it looks like a very 'neat' (cool) place....
so it was a little blurry, but my mind sees through that...
thanks for sharing...............

Thank you Carol S. I miss the shit out of that place!!! I'm glad you were able to see it. I know it's kinda blurry, but it's not as bad as it could be. I think I did OK for a camera phone.

It really is, Kay.

Thank you Randee. I'm glad you were able to see through the blurriness.

Vicky P. Feb 26, 2008, 12:07pm EST

I got the idea of the place, your chair looked really comfy, nice to hear your voice.

reply to this comment

Leah Christensen Feb 26, 2008, 3:55pm EST

Thank you Vicky. The nice thing about the way it was decorated is that there's a lot of light colouring, and the furnature and decorations are all dark colours. It's great for someone with low vision.

J. P. Feb 26, 2008, 5:36pm EST

Lovely voice Leah, looks like you miss the place so much.
