B. Actual Learning Activities

7:20 am

The ingredients are in the bread machine and the snow is flying outside. Now to turn on the fireplace and sit back with a nice cup of coffee. Although the days are getting longer, it is still dark outside at 7:30 in the morning.

8:10 am

The snow has really picked up. Not a good time for travelling.

I have followed Lesson 3 of "Adobe Dreamweaver CS5 Classroom in a Book". Once again, it was primarily review, but it did remind me of the importance of the id selector for specifying particular areas of a page layout. This is what I will need to get formatting control of some of my tables. I also need to learn how to do this with CS5. Apparently Lesson 10 will describe this. At the moment I am content to move through the book at a leisurely pace and see what I can learn.

5:00 PM

I had a 2-hour session with my model trains this morning. The time was spent trying to create the consist for a local freight train in the Coaldale yard. I did have difficulties with locomotive stalls but I think I have cleaned the track in most of the troublesome areas.

I also found time to do a little reading of "Freedom".
