I found a thumb drive that I could not identify. Plugging it in a USB socket made my computer beep but did not give me access. I was perplexed for some time. I asked my son if he could identify the thumb drive, he said it was the downloads from my wife’s tablet that I asked him to do. While we were talking I plugged into my computer’s USB 3.0 socket rather than the standard 2.0 sockets. It came to life!
Before it decided to shut down again I quickly copied the data to a folder on my desktop. Looking through the data I found things my wife was downloading or taking pictures of in the few years before she passed away. A lot to go over. Some stuff I never knew about or was not shared.
So as to sharing…
I remembered some image files I had in a folder on one of my drives. They were not related to my wife, but to someone most of you know. For a bunch of years we shared email discussions on lots of topics, sometimes he would send me an image or two relating to the email discussion.
I took these images, ( I may have more somewhere ), and made up a little page with them. Now it’s not fancy, I code only simple HTML, and that using the “Hunt-N’-Peck” method of typing with a lot of copy and paste thrown in for good measure.
If I had peaked your curiosity, here is the link to those images on one of my domains.
My personal favorite is “rhys” from January 7, 2009.
Enjoy, and if you can, say a silent prayer for our mutual friend.
