Well.... I've been away from myLot for a while but I am going to try to make an effort to get back. I have been working on my photography and blogging, all the while trying to secure sponsors/partners and start a YouTube channel....

This week's contribution was taken at Sea Girt, New Jersey. It was a rather windy day with storm clouds rolling in - perfect for shooting at the beach! That is Asbury Park in the distance.

I am NOT a basketball fan - I used to go to games when I was in school but more for the social element than the game. The only time I ever watched on television was when Michael Jordan was playing and then it was only to watch him...

Joe Valencia I'm glad to hear that I am not alone. Yes, I would think basketball in next to Godliness in Kentucky. It is much like football in Texas....

I want to discuss this keeping books in mind. However, I find this issue to be occurring in other entertainment fields of my life such as watching movies or TV series. But let us limit this to books. Every time I read fiction, I...

Joe Valencia I have never found fiction to be a waste of time. I love reading fiction - Stephen King is my favorite living author and I loved reading Mark Twain, Herman Melville and others growing up. I also read biographies and autobiographies - I read "Shell Shocked" by...

I just read a comment to one of my discussions - the commenter stated they were going to leave themselves a note so they wouldn't forget to do something. I do the same but now many of my notes are electronic. I have been blogging...

Joe Valencia I used to keep multiple notebooks, both large and pocket-size, based upon what they contained. I had photography, writing, work, etc.... The problem was that they would get beat up and I couldn't easily find something. Evernote is great.

This weeks entry was shot a few years back during an after-work hike. I noticed this cluster of leaves (or seedpods, not really sure) and thought it looked interesting. I re-discovered this image a couple weeks ago and started...

Joe Valencia The beauty of Evernote is that the notes are stored locally, on my computer, but on the server. The chances of a total meltdown of their system and backups are rather slim. I also believe there may be a local copy on my PC, just in case but I would have to...

Joe Valencia I've been there, too.... I do find that many times the act of writing a note makes me remember to do something and I actually never need the note.

Joe Valencia Connie - I still use paper and pen for quick notes but then transcribe them to Evernote when I get a chance. I can often have a half-dozen stuffed in my pants pocket and another few in my wallet. They often end up a mess and sometimes get thrown out without...
