I just noticed that Molly mentioned this in her first post.

Where is the place in your avatar located?
Well, there are now two of us signed up.
I sent Olive and Katherine a PM through Fort with a photo I took of the blossoming tree at my apt. complex. Olive said I was wicked.
I don't think I am, though I had a "wicked" grin on my face when I sent it. No more summer in January. It is now in the 50s(F) with rain.

Katherine posted on JJ that she thought she had fixed it. Or had noticed, and was going to fix it - one or the other.zedsgrl wrote:Anybody notice that the time is 12 hours ahead fo EST?

I think each person sets her own time zone. Go to your profile and you can put in your avatar and set your preferences.

I think each person can set their time, but there is also a board time. I think I've fixed it now. I'm not going to have too much time to figure this board out for the next week or so, but I'll get to it!

Hi Molly - I just spent all this time typing away to answer your question and I lost it!
So you'll get the short version now. The gist of it was that most people in this area get sick and tired of Niagara Falls because we have to bring every relative/friend that visits there. However its juat such a great experience to be there in Dec. when its virtually deserted.
Three of us girls have gone a couple of times in Dec. to take advantage of my frined's company's 50% discount at gift shops they own and it just so happens they have a lot of stores in that area. Anyway we always have a blast! We go for the whole day and we also go to Niagara-on-the-Lake which is a quaint little village nearby. We shop, eat, and take advantage of wine-tasting offered there (its wine country). Plus its just beautiful with all the lights and Xmas decorations.
We always have to go and have a drink at "The Olde Angel Inn" which is like 200 years old. Its a historical site and very cozy and has the greatest atmosphere - supposedly haunted too!
As you can tell - I have fond memories of the experience - its usually right around my birthday too - plus its so Christmassy, gets us right in the spirit. I'll post some pics if I can figure out how to.

Any idea of how to post photos? Do you have to use a photosharing site?

Ah, zeds, that Christmassy trip sounds great. Would that I could travel. <sigh>
This is the info about image posting:
The BBCode incorporates a tag for including images in your posts. Two very important things to remember when using this tag are: many users do not appreciate lots of images being shown in posts and second, the image you display must already be available on the Internet (it cannot exist only on your computer, for example, unless you run a webserver!). You can upload for free your images on internet by an image hosting
I tried to upload a photo of the blossoming tree in January from PhotoBucket. It posted the second time I tried then it went wonky with PhotoBucket removing it.
Weird - but it does say you need an internet photo service from which to draw your photos.
ETA: Yay! I figured out how to minus hours from Greenwich to get the appropriate time on my posts.
