This morning the wife and I just closed the deal on a new 2009 Toyota RAV 4. Thats the most I've ever spent on anything in one day other than my house. We were going to get the 4 cyl base model but the colour we wanted wasn't going to be available for close to a month so we ended up going with the V6 base model. Fuel consumption is supposed to be close to the 4 cyl. The old 93 Aerostar van, well her best days are behind her. Rust is gaining ground and it's getting to the point where I don't trust it to go too far, just to work and back. Side door is starting to rattle, I expect that it'll fall off shortly. I felt that I've suffered long enough with that van and having to sell my 91 Sonoma four years ago, the van was my main transportation for hunting and fishing. It was almost to the point where the old aerostar was getting in the way of my fishing and we can't have that. So anyway hopefully this vehicle will last me for... oh say 20 years, OK I'll settle for 15.

PS - I'll throw up some pics when we get it landed home, I'm having a trailor hitch, block heater and bug deflector installed before it leaves the dealorship.

Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was
cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time.
On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words,
and some of the words are theirs.

Lee, tried three times to upload the RAV pics but it doesn't seem to work, seems to take forever then I end up with a white screen. Wasn't that happening before. I tried four pics, then three, the two so the last time I know that I wasn't over on size.

Two things Bill, the photo's are smaller then 2 megs in size and I have increased your quota. Make sure of the picture size and try again.

Morning Lee

All pics are well below 2MB, more around the 1Mb size, I just tried again to upload three of them and it goes for a bit then I just get the white screen with "done" on the bottom bar. Wasn't this happening before to me?

Bill

I have no idea what the problem is at this time, can you give me more info about what you are seeing, have you really waited enough time for the uploads to finish. Even if it says DONE it may still be working. As you can see that Stephen uploaded a photo yesterday without problem and I have done the same without a problem this morning. Are the pictures in JPG format?? Give me as much info as you can as to what you see when doing the upload.
