MAY 9, 2010: GOING AWAY PARTY
Read MoreBefore guests started arriving, I set my camera on a tripod with a timer set to take a photo once every 12 minutes. I have culled many out, but this series will give you a sense of the building of the mood as guests arrive. If you aren't into in that, feel free to go fast, or to skip to photo number 24.
1 minute 44 seconds of video, gives a feel for the party. To play it, click on the triangle in the center of the above photo. The video will open and start buffering in a new window. Depending on your internet speed, you may want to click on the PAUSE button for a while. If you decide that it's taking too long to load, click on the ipod/DVD button or Web button (above the video window). That will re-size it to a smaller window, but will download MUCH more quickly. I think that even very slow connections should not have trouble with the Web setting (but the picture will be very small).
