Another Warm Beautiful Day in Winnipeg

What a great Fall day here in Winnipeg. Stino didn't have to work today so he kept himself busy with some yard work. I kept myself busy with a project for my father-in-law.
This project, I have a feeling will take many hours, months to complete. He bought an ADS tech instant music. This little gadget I guess is called a digitizer. So, it enables me to connect it to my ghetto blaster and play a cassette and using the ADS tech, it gets connected to one end of the ghetto and the other end to a USB port on my laptop. Then I have to open up the software it comes with which is Nero Soundtrax. Once Soundtrax is opened up, then I start to play the cassette on the ghetto blaster and click on the record button on the soundtrax.
This can and does take quite some time. If side A of the cassette is 30 minutes, then that is how long it takes to record all of side A. Once that is done, then it goes to the wave editor where I have to split up each track and then I have to save each track and name it to. If I chose not to split it, then all of side A would have been one very long wma file.
I did 3 cassettes for him and even burned them to a CD.
I was really impressed with the sound and even did one of my cassettes. Darn, it's so cool that I now have all my cassettes and FIL's to do.
I think I should install the ADS tech software to my desktop computer which then will free my laptop and I can start my digital scrap stuff instead of music.
When the cassette was being recorded to my laptop, I went outside and took a few pictures.
Took some pictures of Stino cutting the hedges, weeds in our yard lol, trapped wasps on our deck, (thank goodness that is where they are) our tomatoes, and grapes.


I really like the background on this pretty weed picture. I call it a weed as I have no idea what is the real name. Maybe it is not even a weed but some kind of wild flower. If you click on it, it will enlarge and you can really see the swirlies in the background.
