Sunny Sky

We finally had some decent weather today. The sun came out and it was beautiful for a short time. I snapped a picture to prove it. ha ha

I walked a total of 2.62 miles today.

Oh, I also got my hair cut today.

Sad Day

Today the Supreme Court is expected to vote on Bret Kavanaugh’s nomination. Here is the headline on the Washington Post this morning:

We are in for some bad times to come with this. I just feel it. I did read an excellent opinion piece on the Washington Post that was spot on. I love it! Check it out here.

Update: This afternoon they voted to bring it to the floor. Split down party lines of course. But Jeff Flake asked for a one week delay to have the FBI do an investigation on the allegations against Kavanaugh. We’ll see how that goes.

Finally blue sky! I was able to get outside and do my walking today. I walked 2.08 miles using the exercise app.

Portrait Mode

So today I tried the portrait mode on the iPhone Xs Max camera. Again, I’m not sure how I feel about it. I used the depth editor to blur the background (Bokeh). I think it worked fine but I wouldn’t use it for anything professional. And again I’m noticing that if you don’t have a lot of light, the camera just doesn’t perform the way I’m expecting to. This has always been an issue with cameras on the iPhones.

Using the exercise app, I walked 1.53 miles today.

iPhone Pictures

Since I got the iPhone Xs Max, I’ve been taking pictures trying out the new camera. Here is a photo of flowers on our dining room table. We don’t have much light in there so I used the flash. I’m not sure how I like the flash. It seems harsh.

Using the exercise app, I walked 1.56 miles today.

Goodbye Old iPhone

Today I packed up the iPhone 8 Plus to send to SellYourMac.com to get a nice check. They are sending me $480 for the old phone. That’s nice because that makes the new phone cheaper.

I got the watch paired correctly with my new phone so I was able to keep track of the steps. I walked a total of 1.88 miles today.
