Jennie Slick and I are getting ready to return home to Arizona. We took a couple of days off after our workshop in Boston and I’ve been looking at slide show software that allows the show to be embedded in a web page. Here are a few pictures from the workshop! Thanks to all of the participants. We had a great time and we’re planning to be back next year!
