Testing to see if I can add a photo

Well, after a very discouraging afternoon at the tablet weaving loom (I simply could not get a pattern to reproduce but I did get something I think the customer will be OK with) I've come back in and decide to play with this a bit more.  I added a bunch of photos to an "album" which seems to exist somewhere in Google land but does not really show up on the blog (yet anyway).  I also tried several times to add google webtools, carefully following the instructions to be rejected each time as unverified.  It seems that even though I have the blog from Google and have signed up with them, they can not verify me as the owner of the site I'm signed in with.  Nor, will their might web tool accept an exact cut and paste of their own code as verfication.  So either I am missing something obvious and/or the webtools installation is not quite as "easy" as it looks.  For now I shall stick to the very simpled editor that comes with the blog, until I can find someone who knows more than I do.

Meanwhile, on to the photo experiment, lets see if I can insert something here:

 
OK second try worked better if a bit large, this is me spinning flax at an Irish castle a few years ago.

 
OK and that's me looking very tired but dressed in hand woven Viking Apron that had just won Kingdom 
A & S for textiles about two year ago.
On the whole this looks like it works, so I'll finish playing for now and post.  Then I'll go visit a certain tiny Calico Kitten who didn't want to come back in when it got dark tonight and ran away from Mommy and Daddy.  After about an hour, she decided that alone and in the dark without supper was not really as much fun as she thought and yowled at the front door.  Parents, I'm not suggesting you do this with your smalls when they refuse to come in for supper but it does seem to work for cats, try at your own risk- lol
